The forty-fifth edition of the Joint Arab Economic Report addresses economic developments in Arab countries during 2024. The Report exemplifies the collaborative work of Arab institutions, with contributions to its preparation from the General Secretariat of the League of Arab States, the Arab Fund for Economic and Social Development, the Arab Monetary Fund, and the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC). Each institution prepares its assigned chapters according to the agreed annual framework. The Arab Monetary Fund then edits and publishes the final report. Member countries review and comment on a preliminary, limited-circulation draft during the September sessions of the Board of Governors of Arab Central Banks and Monetary Authorities and the Economic and Social Council. The Arab Monetary Fund, in coordination with the other partner institutions, incorporates this feedback and issues the final version of the report before the year’s end.
