Listen "Episode 19 One Reform Won’t Do It: The Surprising Power of Policy Packages to Spark Growth"
Episode Synopsis
Investment accelerations can lift output growth to nearly 6% a year and cut poverty rates by 0.5 percentage points annually—but they’ve become far rarer. This episode uncovers why single reforms no longer spark growth and how coordinated policy packages—combining fiscal stability, openness, and strong institutions—dramatically raise the odds of both public and private investment takeoff. Learn how countries can translate reforms into real jobs, higher productivity, and greater poverty reduction.
