Private sector investment is widely recognized as the engine of economic growth. The long-term strategic framework 2008-2020 (Strategy 2020) of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) identifies private sector development and private sector operations as one of five drivers of change to pursue its vision and agenda. ADB's private sector operations aim to promote broad-based and inclusive growth in Asia and the Pacific region by catalyzing and encouraging private investment. In particular, through support for innovative and replicable projects in the private sector ADB maximizes the development impact of such assistance. This report is the first of an annual series reviewing how private sector operations have fared in promoting ADB's overall development effectiveness agenda. The report offers an opportunity to reflect on the value addition of ADB's private sector operations, to highlight performance trends and to identify actions required to improve results.

TheWorld Development Report 2003addresses how to lift from poverty the three billion people now living in severe deprivation. It also explores how to improve the quality of life for everybody today and for the two billion more who will join mankind in the next thirty years. Substantial increases in growth and productivity will be necessary to achieve this goal. The current scale of economic activity and speed of change is such that ecosystem and social structures cannot keep up. TheReportputs forth two main messages: the first point is that enhancing prosperity and reducing poverty requires better care of the planet's ecosystem and social fabric. And secondly, that stronger collective action at all levels--from local to global--is essential for generating and scaling up the institutions that can transform growth.
