Tools

The Development Prospects Group provides a variety of tools for the analysis of development in the areas of macroeconomics, trade, and finance.

The Global Income Distribution Dynamic (GIDD) model, is a global CGE-microsimulation framework that takes into account the macro nature of growth and integrates a microeconomic (that is, individual and household) dimension. By including 121 countries and covering 90 percent of the world population, the GIDD is the first macro-micro global simulation model.

The Global Linkage model is a global dynamic computable general equilibrium model maintained by the World Bank to support global trade policy analysis.

iSimulate is a tool for performing economic simulations

The MAMS (Maquette for MDG Simulations) tool is a dynamic Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model to facilitate country policy analysis.
