Abstract

MANAGE-WB is a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model developed by a network of CGE modelers to support World Bank teams and clients in conducting macroeconomic analyses across a broad range of topics. It is a single-country, open-economy CGE model featuring multiple sectors, institutions, and factors of production. This paper presents the model’s structure and implementation, including its graphical user interface, methods for estimating and updating Social Accounting Matrices (SAMs), as well as tools for conducting sensitivity analyses and stochastic simulations.
