Abstract: | Worldwide experience suggest that the primary conditions for sustained economic growth and poverty reduction are sound macroeconomic policies, open trade relations, and increases in human and physical capital. However, sustained development and poverty reduction also hinge on a comprehensive development framework. Markets need to be incentive based, yet regulated, functioning alongside an adequately supervised financial sector. Other prerequisites include effective health, education and social services, quality infrastructures and public services, and policies oriented to environmental and human development. |
