Bangladesh against its regional peers
Peer Benchmark
A country's progress reads differently next to its neighbours. This scorecard places Bangladesh beside five regional peers, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Thailand and Vietnam, on the indicators that shape development: output and investment, industry and exports, health and schooling, digital access, and inclusion. Each row is the most recent year all six report on the same World Bank basis.

Method and sources
Source: World Bank World Development Indicators (WDI), for Bangladesh and the five peers. For each indicator the table uses the latest single year in which Bangladesh and at least three peers all report, so every comparison is same-year and same-basis. Rank direction follows the indicator: for most, higher is better; for under-5 and maternal mortality, stunting, out-of-pocket health, and the Gini index, lower is better, and the rank reflects that. The average peer percentile places each Bangladesh value within the spread of the reporting countries (100 = best of the group, 0 = worst) and averages across indicators. WDI figures are internationally comparable and may differ from national-source numbers that use a different vintage or fiscal year.
