| Summary: | Publication of this first edition of the
little data book on private sector development coincides
with rising interest in private sector development and
growing understanding of the links between private sector
development and economic growth. Well functioning finance
markets and a robust private sector play critical roles in
increasing productivity and growth and in spreading equality
of opportunity. The availability of cross-country data on
the business environment has expanded rapidly in recent
years; including data from the World Bank's doing
business project and enterprise surveys. These data sources
report on the scope and types of regulations that enhance,
and constrain, business activity and provide information on
business owners' assessments of the business
environment. These data have led to new research, enabled
benchmarking, and informed the reform process in many
developing countries. |
