Elevated US Rates Push Up Bond Yields in Emerging East Asia

Data and Statistics   ADB's Data and Statistics

Data and statistical analysis in the Asia and Pacific region contributes to knowledge generation in ADB, helping strengthen its institutional priorities and operational effectiveness in its developing member countries.

Trade and Climate Change

In Asia (and globally), exports account for about 30% of total production-based CO2 emissions. The share of exports in total production-based emissions for Asia grew faster than the world average, especially between 2001 and the financial crisis, and rose over one-third from about 23% to 31% from 1995 to 2018.

Emissions embodied in Asian manufactured exports account for three-fourths of the total, followed by transportation and other services.
