Summary: For Madagascar the challenge is clear: unless the country can close the gap between performance and potential, poverty will continue to affect a large share of the Malagasy population for many generations. To a large extent, escaping from the poverty trap requires Madagascar to put in place the conditions that would enable it to attain high economic growth rates. Action in two main policy areas is required: 1) fostering a supply response for private sector development; and 2) redefining the role of the public sector. Madagascar needs to focus on measures to gain investor confidence, both domestic and foreign.
