Love the visualizations in this excellent piece from Francesca Minetto on on the 'reverse Brussels effect': EU policies imported from international institutions. All-too-rare clear and quality scientific illustrations. A few below.

The OECD effectively solved* cross-border bank tax evasion - a major problem of globalisation - with global automatic exchange of financial data.
They just took the first step towards a similar system for cross-border real estate. That’s big!
