WIDER Working Paper 2020/44-Structural Transformation
WIDER Working Paper 2020/44 Structural transformation, inequality dynamics, and inclusive growth in Bangladesh Selim Raihan1 and Sunera Saba Khan2 April 2020 Abstract: The Bangladesh economy has undergone significant structural changes over the last four decades. The share of agriculture in GDP has declined, while the significance of industry and service sectors has increased. These structural changes have been associated with persistent challenges such as lack of diversification, poor working conditions, low productivity, and high degree of informality, obstructing the progress towards inclusive economic growth. Though manufacturing is now an overwhelmingly salient component of Bangladesh’s export composition, this is due primarily to the rapid expansion of the ready-made garments sector: the performance of other industries has been rather weak. In order to become a sustained, inclusive driver of economic growth and employment creation, the manufacturing sector needs to focus on expanding and diversifying its base. This study looks at the major challenges, both policy-induced and structural, for the required structural transformation in the Bangladesh economy, aiming to tackle inequality and promote inclusive growth. Key words: Bangladesh, structural transformation, inclusive growth, inequality, ready-made garments JEL classification: O14, O25, O40, O53 1 University of Dhaka and SANEM (South Asian Network on Economic Modeling), Dhaka, Bangladesh, corresponding author: [email protected]; 2 SANEM, Dhaka, Bangladesh. This study has been prepared within the UNU-WIDER project Developer’s dilemma – structural transformation, inequality dynamics, and inclusive growth.

Maersk Line boss Nils Smedegaard Andersen was in a confident mood after his carrier posted a decent US$204 million profit in the first quarter.
