The Cook Islands is a self-governing state in free association with New Zealand and qualifies as a small island developing state (SIDS). Its economy was severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, triggering an Economic Recovery Roadmap to rebuild resilience, restore growth and align development with its Economic Development Strategy 2030. Tourism drives a large share of GDP, and concessional financing arrangements from institutions such as the Asian Development Bank support infrastructure needs, climate adaptation and social services - key enablers of sustainable and inclusive development in the face of geographic isolation and small markets.

Niue is a self-governing island state in free association with New Zealand, with a very small population and limited domestic economic base. Public administration and financial support from New Zealand underpin government services and infrastructure development. Tourism, niche agriculture and digital services initiatives provide modest economic activity. Development priorities focus on renewable energy, connectivity improvements and climate resilience. Demographic constraints, geographic isolation and high service delivery costs remain structural challenges to sustainable growth.
