ANNUAL REPORT: South Asia Economic, Thematic, and Sector Work 2005
Asian Development Bank | January 2006
Abstract
The provision of technical advice is an important function of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). Thus, ADB supports nonlending activities, including economic, thematic, and sector work (ETSW). This publication contains abstracts of the South Asia Regional Department's (SARD) Economic, Thematic, and Sector Work that were completed in 2005. The abstracts comprise (i) macro- and microeconomics studies; (ii) thematic work; and (iii) sector work, including sector-specific analyses of ADB. Regularly published ETSW, such as contributions to the Asian Development Outlook (ADO), ADO Update, Annual Reports, and periodic country economic updates, are not covered in this report.
