A Novel Approach to Regionalize Country‐Level GDP Projections

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Socioeconomic projections are policy support tools that are often limited to country‐level data, making them insufficient for policy areas that require a more nuanced, sub‐national perspective. For granular geographical analyses in a multicountry setting, international organizations often rely on straightforward regionalization techniques ...
