Abstract
This presentation explores the idea of a 'middle-income transition' or 'middle-income trap' in Sri Lanka and questions what ingredients matter when thinking about breaching the middle-income challenge. The presentation argues that 3 key pillars were important for countries that successfully navigated the middle-income transition - better talent, better products and better governance.
