First, it takes the pulse of the Maldivian economy by outlining key developments over the past 12 months. Placing these in a global context, and based on these recent developments, the MDU then analyzes the outlook over the medium term. Second, every other edition of the MDU provides a more in-depth investigation of selected economic and policy issues. It has a wide audience including policymakers, policy analysts from think tanks or non-governmental organizations, and business and financial sector professionals interested in the economic development of Maldives. The MDU was prepared by Ruijie Cheng, Erdem Atas, Richard Walker, and Arvind Nair (Economic Policy, South Asia Region). The team is grateful to Nand
