Asian Development Bank and Federated States of Micronesia: Fact Sheet
Asian Development Bank | April 2015
Abstract
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has been working with the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) since 1990, providing 10 loans totaling $84.18 million and 47 technical assistance projects worth $27.23 million. ADB has supported good governance in the FSM with a focus on economic management and accountability. The government formulated its ongoing development framework in 2012 which highlights the importance of ownership of the development process at the national and state levels, accompanied by well-coordinated, sector-based
support from development partners. ADB continues to support this initiative.

Asian Development Bank (Asian Development Bank, 2014-03-15)Inclusive growth has become a catchphrase in discussions of development policies and strategies among practitioners and policymakers.

Rodrik, Dani (Asian Development Bank, 2006-03-29)The disappointments of the Washington Consensus have led to the search for a new paradigm to replace it. The chief failing of the Washington Consensus was that it represented an approach based on “rules of thumb.” As such it was not well grounded either in economic theory or in the reality of actual countries. I discuss several strands of new thinking that have appeared following the demise of the ...The disappointments of the Washington Consensus have led to the search for a new paradigm to replace it.
