| Summary: | The cause of good governance, integrity,
transparency, and anticorruption is vital for facilitating
private sector led growth and development throughout the
Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. There are many
different ways in which weak governance can impede
development. It compromises the delivery of public goods and
services to the citizens, particularly to the poor and the
vulnerable. It complicates the task of regulating markets
and creating an enabling environment for private-sector led
growth. It undermines meritocracy in the public sector, as
well as a government's ability to allocate resources
efficiently to achieve its desired ends. |
