Ram C. Acharya

I was born, raised, and educated in Nepal, and later pursued advanced research in Canada. With over three decades of experience in economic research, I have focused relentlessly on one core question: why do some nations achieve lasting prosperity while others remain stuck in its pursuit?

I have dedicated my career to examining the structural, institutional, and policy forces that shape national development—particularly in Canada, Nepal, and other emerging economies.

In addition to academic publications, I have authored government reports, policy briefs, and public commentary aimed at informing and elevating economic debate.
