These Policy Notes concentrate on critical areas where other sourcebooks and guidelines do not adequately reflect alternative policy options, international agreements and development goals, and the latest research evidence, including on the likely costs and trade-offs that such options entail. They focus on employment-generating macroeconomic policies, inclusive finance for development, reform of state-owned enterprises, trade policy, investment and technology (industrial) policies, and social policy.
