Cambodia has become one of the world’s leaders in poverty reduction and shared prosperity. Cambodia sustained an average growth rate of 7.6 percent in 1994-2015, ranking sixth in the world, and has now become a lower middle-income economy. ... See More + Cambodia’s success has ridden on employment creation, although labor productivity gains have been lower than in other fast-growing economies, partly due to lower capital intensity. Growth has also been driven to a large extent by the country’s rich and diverse natural capital which supports the livelihoods of millions of Cambodians. Going forward, Cambodia may not be able to rely on the same factors that drove strong growth and poverty reduction over the past two decades. Declining external competitiveness threatens the sustainability of garments and tourism and poses a challenge to economic diversification and moving up the value chain. A number of institutional, human capital, and, to a lesser extent, infrastructure constraints hamper competitiveness as well as the creation of a vibrant private sector in Cambodia. In light of these challenges and risks, areas of development for ensuring strong, inclusive, and sustainable growth with shared prosperity in Cambodia going forward were identified, based on analysis and consultations with stakeholders. The areas for development were ranked based on the impact interventions will have on maintaining strong and sustainable growth and achieving poverty reduction and shared prosperity, in terms of creating and enhancing households’ participation in better economic opportunities, the share of the population affected, and complementarity with other interventions.  See Less -

Ratings for the Trade Development Support Program Project for Cambodia were as follows: outcomes were satisfactory, risk to development outcome was moderate, Bank performance was moderately satisfactory, and Grantee performance was moderately satisfactory. ... See More + Some lessons learned included: supporting a sector-wide approach (SWAp) can yield benefits to promote integrated policy-making, notably in trade policy, but the underlying institutional framework needs to be solid. Adopting a programmatic approach should not come at the expense of selectivity and prioritization of activities for support. To improve the trade environment, combining activities that yield short and medium-term results and activities with direct and indirect impacts is a favorable option. Developing institutional capacity takes time and is a challenging task, but is a worthy objective in low-capacity environments, such as Cambodia.  See Less -
