Since 1997, the economies of the poorest countries in the ASEAN, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Myanmar and Vietnam, have generally grown faster than the richer economies, which has reduced gaps in per capita incomes. Overall, child mortality rates have been cut by two-thirds across the ASEAN. And significant reductions have occurred even in some of the poorer member countries such as Cambodia and Lao PDR. However, this report The ASEAN Equitable Development Monitor (henceforth referred to as The Monitor), also shows that much remains to be done to ensure that the poorest members of the ASEAN community, within countries and across countries, are not left behind as the countries of the ASEAN integrate further. In both policies and development outcomes, differences across the countries of the ASEAN remain large. In this context, the monitor is designed to facilitate further discussion on policies and programs that can promote inclusive growth within ASEAN member countries and across the ASEAN community. It presents a number of indicators that are intended to provide a summary of development outcomes across and within the ten ASEAN countries and over time. On this basis, the monitor is intended to help policymakers in ASEAN member states to identify areas of concerns and prioritize national and regional interventions. The monitor tracks indicators across two broad sets of development outcomes and policies: (i) economic development; and (ii) human development.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO EDUCATIONACCESS TO FINANCEACCESS TO FINANCIAL SERVICESACCESSIBILITYACCOUNT OWNERSHIPADULT POPULATIONAVAILABILITY OF CREDITAVAILABILITY OF FINANCEBABIESBABYBANK ACCOUNTBANK BRANCHESBANKRUPTCYBANKRUPTCY LAWSBANKSBASIC EDUCATIONBIASESBORROWINGBUSINESS FINANCEBUSINESS OPPORTUNITIESCCCHILD MORTALITYCHILD MORTALITY RATECHILD MORTALITY RATESCITIZENSCLAIMANTSCOLLATERALCOMMERCIAL BANKCOMMERCIAL BANK BRANCHESCONSUMER PRICE INDEXCONSUMER PRICE INDICESCONSUMPTION EXPENDITURECONTRACT ENFORCEMENTCREDIT BUREAUCREDIT BUREAUSCREDIT CARDCREDIT CARDSCREDIT INFORMATIONCREDIT REGISTRIESCREDIT REGISTRYCREDIT REPORTINGCREDIT REPORTING SYSTEMSCREDITORSDEBTDEBT MANAGEMENTDEBT SERVICEDEBT SERVICINGDEBT STOCKDEBT STOCKSDEBTORDEEDSDEFAULTSDEFICITSDELIVERY CAREDEPOSITSDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPMENT OF POLICIESDRINKING WATEREARNINGSECONOMIC ACTIVITYECONOMIC COOPERATIONECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC INTEGRATIONECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIESECONOMIC PROGRESSEDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENTELDERLYEMPLOYEREMPLOYMENT CREATIONEMPLOYMENT GROWTHENABLING ENVIRONMENTSENROLMENT RATEENROLMENT RATESENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENTENTREPRENEURENTREPRENEURSEQUALITYEQUITABLE ACCESSEXPENDITUREEXPENDITURESEXPLOITATIONEXPORT SHAREEXTERNAL DEBTFACETS OF DEVELOPMENTFACILITATIONFAMILIESFINANCE ACCESSFINANCIAL ACCOUNTSFINANCIAL BURDENFINANCIAL COSTSFINANCIAL CRISESFINANCIAL CRISISFINANCIAL PRODUCTSFINANCIAL SYSTEMSFIRM PERFORMANCEFOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTFOREIGN INVESTMENTFOREIGN INVESTORSFOREIGN MARKETSFORMAL BORROWINGFORMAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONFORMAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSFORMAL FINANCIAL SECTORFORMAL SAVINGFORMAL SAVINGSGENDERGENDER DIFFERENTIALSGENDER GAPSGENDERSGLOBAL ECONOMIESGLOBAL ECONOMYGREATER ACCESSGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTGROSS NATIONAL INCOMEHEALTH INSURANCEHOLDINGHOUSEHOLD INCOMEHUMAN DEVELOPMENTINCIDENCE OF POVERTYINCOME GROUPINCOME GROWTHINCOME LEVELSINEQUALITIESINEQUALITYINFANTINFANT MORTALITYINFANT MORTALITY RATESINFLATIONINFLATION RATESINFLATIONARY PRESSURESINSOLVENT BUSINESSINSOLVENT BUSINESSESINTERNATIONAL BANKINTERNATIONAL MARKETSINVESTOR PROTECTIONLABOR FORCELEGAL PROTECTIONSLEGAL RIGHTSLEGAL STATUSLENDERSLEVELS OF EDUCATIONLIMITED ACCESSLIQUIDATIONLITERACY RATESLIVESTOCK INSURANCELIVING STANDARDSLOANLOW BIRTH WEIGHTMACROECONOMIC INSTABILITYMACROECONOMIC POLICIESMACROECONOMIC POLICYMACROECONOMIC STABILITYMATERNAL DEATHSMATERNAL MORTALITYMATERNAL MORTALITY RATIOMEDICAL CAREMEDICAL PROFESSIONALMICROENTERPRISESMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALMINORITYMINORITY SHAREHOLDERSMONEY MARKETMONEY SUPPLIESMONEY SUPPLYMULTINATIONALSNEO-NATAL MORTALITYNEW BUSINESSESNUMBER OF CHILDRENNUMBER OF PEOPLENUTRITIONONLINE SYSTEMPERSONAL FINANCEPOLITICAL INSTABILITYPRENATAL CAREPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY SCHOOLPRIMARY SCHOOL AGEPRIMARY SCHOOL ENROLMENTPRIVATE CREDITPRIVATE ENTERPRISEPRIVATE LENDERPROGRESSPUBLIC CREDITPUBLIC REGISTRYPURCHASING POWERPURCHASING POWER PARITYQUALITY OF EDUCATIONRECEIPTREGULATORY POLICIESREPAYMENTSRESERVESRURAL AREASRURAL RESIDENTSSALES GROWTHSANITATIONSANITATION FACILITIESSAVINGSSAVINGS DEPOSITSSCHOOL STUDENTSSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY ENROLMENTSECONDARY SCHOOLSECONDARY SCHOOL ENROLMENTSKILLED BIRTH ATTENDANCESKILLED BIRTH ATTENDANTSSMALL BUSINESSESSOCIAL SECURITYSOCIAL WELFARESOCIOECONOMIC STATUSTAXTAX RATETERTIARY EDUCATIONTIME DEPOSITSTOTAL DEBTTRADINGTRANSACTIONS LAWUNIVERSAL ACCESSURBAN AREASWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONBridging the Development GapReportWorld BankASEAN Equitable Development Monitor 201410.1596/21749
