Market classification.

(LDCs).

A least developed country is one which has the lowest levels of development in its economy and capital markets.


Markets (in order of economic development) are often classified as:

Developed;
Emerging;
Frontier;
Least Developing.


Different organisations produce slightly different lists of countries within each of these categories.

Examples of least developed countries in the United Nations' classification include - in alphabetical order - Afghanistan, Angola, Bangladesh, Benin and Bhutan.
