Resumen
Descripción
This report focuses on the economic
mobility of individuals (and corresponding households)
belonging to the bottom 40 percent of the Kyrgyz population.
This is indeed the target population chosen by the World
Bank Group for the achievement of its second and twin goal
of shared prosperity (the first one remaining poverty
reduction). Moreover, in the specific case of the Kyrgyz
Republic total poverty rates in the period under analysis
ranged between 34 and 37 percent, thus making the poverty
and bottom 40 percent pools almost identical. For each
selected transition group, the report depicts a detailed
profile of corresponding main socio-economic
characteristics. Four transition groups were in particular
identified: (i) those who were found to be stuck in the
bottom 40 percent in both 2010 and 2011; (ii) those who
managed to move up from the bottom 40 percent in 2011; (iii)
those who entered the bottom 40 percent in 2011, and (iv)
those who managed to stay in the top 60 percent in both
years under analysis. The evidence shows a few significant
differences among these four groups in terms of both
households’ invariant and individual characteristics.
