East Asia and the Pacific (EAP) Region

The East Asia and the Pacific Region (EAP) is highly heterogeneous! Its 19 client countries include one of the smallest, Tuvalu with a population of 11,646 and the largest, China. It includes IDA and IBRD countries as well as countries who no longer borrow from the Bank, but still maintain strong partnerships with the Bank through knowledge Hubs.

EAP has made the fastest progress in economic growth and poverty reduction of any region in the last quarter-century. A succession of East Asian economies has progressed from low-income to middle-income, with others preparing to join the small group of high-income countries soon. At present, the region remains one of the main drivers of the world economy, accounting for nearly two-fifths of global economic growth!

Despite this progress, the Asia and Pacific region still faces huge development challenges. Inequality within countries is growing, leaving some subnational regions and groups significantly behind. A large portion of the region’s population remains vulnerable to income shocks, including from a global economic slowdown, changing global and regional value-chains, and climate-related risks.

East Asia was the first region to be hit by the COVID-19 pandemic which has provoked both an unprecedented health crisis and a severe economic shock in the region. The economic shock has severely affected both supply and demand, with significant impacts on economic activity, livelihoods, and people’s welfare. Poverty in the East Asia and Pacific region is expected to rise for the first time in over 4 decades. COVID-19 also presents some opportunities for countries in the region to build back better through recovery strategies that prioritize reforms, institutions as well as attention to climate and broader sustainability.
