Book Description
South Asia’s Path to Sustainable and Inclusive Growth highlights the remarkable development progress in South Asia and how the region can advance in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Steps include a renewed push toward greater trade and financial openness, while responding proactively to the distributional impact and dislocation associated with this structural transformation. Promoting a green and digital recovery remains important. The book explores ways to accelerate the income convergence process in the region, leveraging on the still-large potential demographic dividend in most of the countries. These include greater economic diversification and export sophistication, trade and foreign direct investment liberalization and participation in global value chains amid shifting regional and global conditions, financial development, and investment in human capital.

Advancements in Intelligent Process Automation
Author: Thangam, Dhanabalan
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 776
Book Description
In the current fast-paced business environment, organizations face the challenge of improving operational efficiency and driving innovation while dealing with complex technological landscapes. Many organizations require assistance exploiting intelligent process automation's full potential (IPA). This is often due to a need for more comprehensive understanding or clear implementation strategies. As a result, they need to help their workflows, optimize resources, and adapt effectively to changing market demands. Advancements in Intelligent Process Automation bridges this gap by providing a holistic view of IPA, encompassing RPA, AI, and ML, among other key technologies. Through real-world case studies, strategic guidelines, and interdisciplinary perspectives, the book offers actionable insights that are not just theoretical, but practical and implementable. This ensures that organizations seeking to implement IPA can do so seamlessly, without feeling overwhelmed or unsure. Addressing ethical and regulatory considerations ensures responsible AI practices and compliance, fostering a sustainable approach to automation.

Advancing India’s Structural Transformation and Catch-up to the Technology Frontier
Author: Cristian Alonso
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 33
Book Description
While India’s growth has been strong in recent decades, its structural transformation remains incomplete. In this paper, we first take stock of India’s growth to date. We find that economic activity has shifted from agriculture to services, but agriculture remains the predominant employer. Catch up to the technological frontier has been uneven, with limited progress in agriculture, but also in construction and trade, which have grown the most in terms of employment. We do find some Indian firms already operating at the technological frontier. These strong performers tend to be large firms. We then consider India’s employment challenge going forward. We find that India needs to create between 143-324 million jobs by 2050 and that doing so and with workers shifting towards more dynamic sectors could boost GDP growth by 0.2-0.5 percentage points. Structural reforms can help India create high-quality jobs and accelerate growth.

India’s Financial System
Author: Mr. Alfred Schipke
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
India has experienced a prolonged period of strong economic growth since it embarked on major structural reforms and economic liberalization in 1991, with real GDP growth averaging about 6.6 percent during 1991–2019. Millions have been lifted out of poverty. With a population of 1.4 billion and about 7 percent of the world economic output (in purchasing power parity terms), India is the third largest economy—after the US and China. As such, developments in India have significant global and regional implications, including via spillovers through international trade and global supply chains. At the same time, India’s economic development has not been linear and has been impacted by external and domestic shocks, some directly related to the financial sector. Indeed, India was not spared from external regional and global shocks, such as the Asian financial crisis (1997), the global financial crisis (2008), and more recently, the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (from 2020) and the war in Ukraine (2022). The economy has also been hit by domestic shocks. The book covers how to strengthen the financial system to support growth and reduce vulnerabilities by discussing the linkages between the financial sector and growth, improvements in bank lending to foster productivity, and measures to further develop India’s corporate bond market. The book reflects on India’s success in leveraging digitalization to foster financial inclusion and highlights how the financial system can help to address climate issues. This book digs deeper into the various facets of India’s financial sector to understand its strengths and opportunities and to elicit policy actions that could help the financial sector better support India’s growth potential.

A Diversification Strategy for South Asia
Author: Weicheng Lian
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1513584790
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
While South Asia has gone a long way in diversifying their economies, there is substantial scope to do more. Some countries – India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka – can build on their existing production capabilities; others – Bangladesh, Bhutan, and the Maldives – would need to undertake a more concerted push. We identify key policies from a large set of potential determinants that explain the variation in export diversification and complexity across 189 countries from 1962 to 2018. Our analysis suggests that South Asia needs to invest in infrastructure, education, and R&D, facilitate bank credit to productive companies, and open to trade in order to diversify and move up the value chains. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, investing in digital technologies as part of the infrastructure push and improving education are of even greater importance to facilitate the ability to work remotely and assist resource reallocation away from the less viable sectors.

Inclusive GovTech: Enhancing Efficiency and Equity Through Public Service Digitalization
Author: Manabu Nose
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
How could the GovTech improve budget processes and execution efficiency? Could the GovTech strengthen redistributive function of public expenditure? Based on an event-study method, this paper finds that the introduction of digital budget payments and e-procurement could significantly enhance budget transparency and help expand the coverage of social assistance to reach the most vulnerable population. Exploiting staggered adoption of digital budget payments, a synthetic control regression identifies meaningful increase in pre-tax income shares among the bottom 50th percentile and female workers, especially for emerging market and developing countries, with effects materializing gradually over 10-year period. The paper delves into the potential mechanism driving these equity benefits, highlighting the reduction in business informality as a primary channel. However, the paper emphasizes that the mere adoption of GovTech strategies or digital technologies is insufficient to unlock its full potential. The outcomes are intricately linked to supporting policies, regulations, organizational and system integration, and robust digital connectivity. The paper underscores that inter-agency coordination facilitated by a dedicated GovTech institution emerges as a critical factor for reaping both efficiency and equity gains from GovTech initiatives.
