Although there are many ways of defining “Developing Countries,” the World Bank's categorization of “low-income economies” or “lower middle-income economies” are often referenced. Depending on the context and the parties offering a definition, such term might also include certain markets or countries within the categorization of “upper middle-income economies.”
