What the Wage Trend Shows

Lithuania's rapid convergence, statutory wage floor, and Vilnius gap make the starting base important. Recent high growth rates should not be presented without that context.

The longer record is among the stronger OECD catch-up stories. Inflation has affected the real value of those recent increases, so nominal gains should not be read as automatic real gains.
