NEF Support

At the Nepal Economic Forum (NEF), we produce evidence-based research to redefine Nepal’s development discourse. Since its establishment in 2009 as a not-for-profit organization under the beed umbrella, NEF has emerged as a premier private sector-led economic policy and research thought center. Our work aligns with key areas such as sustainability, digital transformation, global integration, youth empowerment, and bottom-up growth.

NEF is a trusted resource for data-driven research. Business Policy Research Center has consistently produced the quarterly publication NEFport for the past fifteen years. We share daily content across our social media platforms, including NEFtake, NEFview, Chart of the Week, Did You Know, and Weekly Economic Update. We also produce policy briefs as NEFnote and research papers as NEFsearch. NEFdata serves as an extensive repository of Nepal's fiscal, monetary, and real sectors covering over 300 economic indicators.
