Economic growth narrowly based on certain enclave sectors or benefitting small groups is neither socially stable nor sustainable. Along these lines, the World Bank recently revised its institutional strategy, establishing two goals, namely: (i) ending extreme global poverty, the traditional goal of the institution, by reducing the percentage of people living on less than $1.25 a day globally to 3 percent by 2030, and (ii) promoting shared prosperity by fostering income growth of the bottom 40 percent of the population. Furthermore, as an overarching condition, the World Bank aims to achieve those goals in a way that is environmentally, economically and socially sustainable to ensure that welfare of the population is not increased at the expense of future generations or specific groups in society. This paper presents first insights into shared prosperity in SEE6 countries. First, it looks at the incidence of growth in SEE6 in the context of the Europe and Central Asia region to determine whether economic growth knowledge gaps are discussed in the paper. The analysis is limited by the availability of micro-data and thus covers different periods by country, depending on each one's most recent data available. Unless otherwise noted, periods refer to: Albania (2008-2012), Bosnia and Herzegovina (2007), Kosovo (2006-2011), FYR Macedonia (2003-2008), Montenegro (2006-2011) and Serbia (2007-2010). 2014-04-15T18:09:46Z 2014-04-15T18:09:46Z 2014-04 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2014/04/19374011/special-topic-first-insights-promoting-shared-prosperity-south-east-europe http://hdl.handle.net/10986/17786 English en_US South East Europe regular economic report;no. 5 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Economic Updates and Modeling Europe and Central Asia Eastern Europe
