Governance, Competitiveness, and Growth: The Challenges for Bangladesh
This paper examines the current situation of governance in Bangladesh in an international context and analyzes different governance dimensions in economic development. It also highlights some misgovernance issues in certain sectors of the Bangladeshi economy.
The paper uses econometric estimation to relate governance with growth and discusses the outlook for meeting governance challenges in Bangladesh. Overall, the evidence indicates that different governance dimensions, such as political, institutional, and technological, are significantly and positively related to increases in per capita income. However, the quality of governance in Bangladesh has remained low as indicated by cross-country comparisons with South and East Asia.
