Providing official Statistics for the Common Market and Monetary Union in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Countries: A Case for "Gulfstat

The views expressed in this Working Paper are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent those of the IMF or IMF policy. Working Papers describe research in progress by the author(s) and are published to elicit comments and to further debate. The six member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC)-Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and United Arab Emirates (UAE)-have laid out a path to a common market by 2007 and monetary union by 2010, based on economic convergence. To monitor convergence and support economic and monetary policy, comparable economic data for member countries and data for the region as a whole will be essential. What is the most efficient way to produce these data? The authors survey the statistical institutions in the GCC countries and present the case for creating "Gulfstat"-a regional statistical agency to operate within a "Gulf States System of Statistics." Valuable lessons can be learned from regional statistical organization in Africa and the European Union-Afristat and Eurostat.

The novelty of the papers is twofold: First, prior literature did not study the in-depth policy analysis of the Bangladesh energy sector. Second, this paper contributes to the existing literature by providing strategic policy suggestions to the Bangladesh government for formulating its own set of energy policies to achieve its vision for 2041 of becoming a high-income country, after having cleared the interim goal of becoming a middle-income country at its 50th anniversary of independence. The paper also provides insights for other developing countries aspiring to become middle-income countries.
