Most of the papers are based on empirical analyses and address different aspects of the economy, including “real” issues such as growth, employment, saving, investment, trade and agriculture, and financial or monetary issues such as money supply, inflation, equity markets, and microfinance. They all make recommendations for policymakers in Bangladesh.
