Economics of fisheries and aquaculture in the Coral Triangle
Marine resources in the Coral Triangle provide food, income, and jobs to its more than 350 million residents. However, the countries bordering this species-rich area—Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and Timor-Leste—share closer links in their ecology than in their economy. Case studies explore the potential benefits of integrating these countries’ small-scale fisheries into global markets by developing opportunities for market differentiation, ensuring equitable distribution of benefits across the supply chain, and lastly, recognizing fisheries values beyond those measurable by national income accounts.

| Summary: | Marine resources in the Coral Triangle provide food, income, and jobs to its more than
350 million residents. However, the countries bordering this species-rich area—Indonesia,
Malaysia, the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and Timor-Leste—share
closer links in their ecology than in their economy. Case studies explore the potential benefits
of integrating these countries’ small-scale fisheries into global markets by developing
opportunities for market differentiation, ensuring equitable distribution of benefits across
the supply chain, and lastly, recognizing fisheries values beyond those measurable by national
income accounts.
