This Development Policy Review (DPR)
discusses Honduras's development agenda with a special
focus on accelerating economic growth. This focus emerges
from the Honduras Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP),
which identified growth as the main determinant o f the
evolution of poverty, and guides the review of policy
developments in various economic, social and infrastructure
sectors. To the extent that the measures and reforms
recommended in this report are able to generate a more
attractive investment climate in Honduras, they will clearly
serve to promote a faster accumulation o f physical capital,
which is one component of economic growth. The main thrust
of most of these reforms, however, is to improve the quality
of factor services and the efficiency of factor allocation,
which, in a growth accounting framework, are reflected in
faster productivity growth. Recommended are measures to
expand the coverage and quality o f education, measures to
promote financial market development, measures to remove
price distortions, attract greater private investment and
improve the regulatory framework, as well as measures
contemplated on the governance front, especially in the area
o f improving public sector financial management and the
civil service. |
