    To successfully replicate the analysis provided in this package, users should follow these steps:

    1. Open the dofile "MENA Dofile_replication package" and update the directory path to match your local directory structure, then execute the script.
      This do-file executes two other scripts:
      • country_routine
      • Cylicality Dofile - MENA Wealth Sharing Report - replication Fig 2-3
        Running this script will generate the following figures:
        Figure 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 4.1, 2.3, 2.4, and 4.2.
    2. For all other figures and tables, follow the instructions in the README file and replicate the analysis using the provided Excel sheets.

    Note: Data from the Iraq Ministry of Finance is restricted. As a result, users will not be able to verify Figure 4.4.
