Prepared by Alosh Lama, Kshitiz Parajuli, Saurav Shrestha, and Suraj Chapagain, it combines data-driven insights with policy analysis for investors, policymakers, and entrepreneurs.
Key Opportunities Explored:
- Hydropower: Only 4.2% of 50,000 MW potential harnessed; 40% FDI surge (2022) and export prospects to India.
- Tourism: 2025 declared "Special Tourism Year"; 1.2M tourists (2023) spending $40.5/day.
- Agriculture: 24.09% GDP contribution, govt subsidies for processing, and crop insurance.
- Digital Economy: Rapid adoption of e-commerce and fintech.
- Demographic Advantage: Youth-dominated workforce and strategic India-China location.
Critical Challenges:
?? Infrastructure Gaps:
- 72% roads unpaved; 200km transport takes 2-3 days
- 8-10 hour daily power cuts; 15-20% firms face equipment damage from voltage fluctuations
?? Regulatory Hurdles:
- 37+ approvals for hydropower projects; 5-year delays
- FDI bans in retail/media; 5% expat hiring cap
?? Economic Volatility:
- 9.2% food inflation; NPR depreciated 4% vs USD (2024)
- Forex reserves cover only 14 months of imports
?? Legal Burdens:
- 35% effective corporate tax; 6-9 month VAT refund delays
- 45-day minimum profit repatriation
?? Socio-Political Risks:
- 147 major strikes (2024); 5 industrial policy shifts since 2010
Data Highlights:
- ? Hydropower: 97.7% electricity access (2019)
- ?? Tourism: 2% GDP contribution despite growth
- ? Agriculture: 59% cultivable land lacks irrigation
- ? Strike Losses: NPR 850M (15 days for Surya Nepal)
Recommendations for Growth:
1. Streamline Bureaucracy: Adopt Singapore-like business registration
2. Infrastructure Investment: Follow Bangladesh¡¯s model
3. Legal Framework Strengthening: New Zealand-inspired trust-building
4. Workforce Development: Germany¡¯s vocational training system
Conclusion:
Nepal offers significant untapped potential in energy, agribusiness, and tourism but requires urgent reforms in infrastructure, policy stability, and ease of doing business to attract FDI. Sustainable growth hinges on implementing these data-backed solutions.

Investors, policymakers, entrepreneurs, economists, international trade analysts, and development agencies exploring South Asian markets.

The revival of real world assets (RWA) in crypto marked one of 2024¡¯s most quietly transformative narratives. While attention remained fixated on memecoins, Layer 2 ecosystems, and political betting markets, RWA steadily evolved from a niche experiment into one of the most credible and capitalized sectors in crypto.
So, how far have the core RWA verticals come since the start of 2024?

Based on a 35:65 equity-debt allocation, it recommends equity investments in HAL, BEL, and Bajaj Auto due to their strong financials and low debt, and debt investments in government and tax-free bonds with stable yields. The analysis balances risk and return for long-term portfolio growth in the defense sector and public sector bonds.Shocks and Inequality An Empirical Exploration
Shocks and Inequality An Empirical ExplorationGRAPE
?
We study the contribution of supply and demand shocks to income inequality in a panel setting. In particular, we exploit the newly created Global Repository of Income Dynamics to study how unanticipated supply and demand shocks identified using long-run restrictions affect income inequality as measured by Gini. We find that demand shocks originating in the United States, on average, increase income dispersion, which we interpret as the impact of changes to US consumption of foreign goods and services. Supply shocks also tend to increase income dispersion, but have a much weaker and short-lived impact. A comparison with responses to domestic shocks reveals that demand shocks exhibit a similar dynamic. Domestic supply shocks are linked to declines in income dispersion.

A group of businesses create a group credit for their goods & services Each business in the group is given an amount of credit that is backed by the commitment of the other businesses. Either electronic database, or even coupons act as a currency that is backed by excess capacity of the business community. Worldwide, more than 400,000 companies are members of one or more of the hundreds of Trade (¡°Barter¡±) Exchanges. Various sources estimate the volume of non-monetary trade worldwide to be between 15% to 25% of the total.
