ECA Regional Flagship Reports

木瓜影院's Europe and Central Asia regional flagship reports share with a broad audience the results of World Bank research on development policy, including reports that analyze trends and key issues in the region. The reports are designed to contribute to the debate on appropriate public policies for developing economies.

  • JUNE 2022 | This report presents evidence on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on migration in the Mediterranean region and explores whether mobility can still play a central role following the COVID-19 outbreak.

  • SEPTEMBER 2018 | This report calls for a fundamental rethinking of policies to ease the growing divide between those who benefit from new economic opportunities and those who are left behind in an ever-more flexible economy.

  • SEPTEMBER 2018 | The report analyzes the impact of different types of connectivity on growth to help policy makers maximize the economic benefits of these connections across Europe and Central Asia.

  • MARCH 2017 | As the economies in the region are not taking full advantage of the internet to foster economic growth and job creation, the report identifies the main bottlenecks and provides policy recommendations tailored to economies.

  • DECEMBER 2016 | Striking the right balance across all dimensions of financial development is crucial for achieving and sustaining inclusive growth. This report provides a robust framework for policy makers to set priorities and manage policy tradeoffs.

  • APRIL 2014 | The report says that countries in the region have done relatively well in ensuring that their populations have shared in overall prosperity, but progress has been uneven and its long-term sustainability is under question.

  • FEBRUARY 2014 | This report is about the twelve countries of the former Soviet Union (Eurasia). About 85% of the region’s economic output is in six resource-rich economies.
