Country Profiles for Bahrain, Oman and Yemen

Last year, ERF brought to a conclusion the Country Profiles Series by publishing the Country Profiles for Bahrain and Oman in English. The Country Profile for Yemen was translated into Arabic to achieve maximum outreach. In each case, a team of experts from the region was assembled to provide an assessment of macroeconomic policies, finance, labor and trade, along with policy recommendations to boost pro-poor growth. The findings provided a solid analytical base for stimulating a constructive dialogue between different stakeholders in each country and to serve as a catalyst for considering alternative strategies and policies going forward.
