40 Things (You Just Might Not Know) About PIDS (32/40):Economic Policy Monitor 

PIDS has produced numerous research and in-depth analyses of the Philippine economy. In 2011, the Institute started a publication series called Economic Policy Monitor (EPM). The EPM reviews macroeconomic trends and the critical policies and programs adopted by the government during the year in review. Its main chapter features an in-depth analysis of a development issue or an existing or a proposed policy intervention. 

Below are the themes of the EPM:
- Fiscal Space, Investment, and Poverty Alleviation
- Education for Development
- Regional Economic Integration and Inclusive Growth - Engaging Nations, Embracing People
- Addressing the Jobs Challenge toward Inclusive Growth
- Effective Regulations for Sustainable Growth
- Risks, Shocks, Building Resilience: Philippines
