AMRO

The ASEAN+3 Macroeconomic and Research Office, abbreviated as AMRO, is an international institution that supports the ASEAN Plus Three group with surveillance, analysis and research. It is based in Singapore.

Overview

The ASEAN+3 Finance Ministers established the Chiang Mai Initiative in May 2000, then upgraded it to Chiang Mai Initiative-Multilateral (CMIM) in March 2010.[1] They then established AMRO in April 2011 to conduct macroeconomic surveillance in support to CMI-M. AMRO was subsequently reorganized as a formal international organization, effective 9 February 2016.[2] AMRO's research has been cited as a reference source by economic policy scholars.[3]: 2
