Trade Impacts of LDC Graduation
Author: World Trade Organization (wto)
Publisher: World Trade Organization
ISBN: 9789287051165
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
Graduation from the status of least-developed country (LDC) marks an important milestone in the development path of each LDC. However, the phasing-out of international support measures associated with LDC status could present challenges for graduating LDCs in their efforts to continue to integrate into the global economy. This report examines the implications of graduation in terms of LDCs' participation in the multilateral trading system, market access opportunities and development assistance. The impact of graduation will vary for each LDC depending on factors such as export structure, use of preferential treatment, and their terms of entry into the WTO. In addition, although a quarter of LDCs were on track to graduate from LDC status prior to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the economic dislocation resulting from the pandemic threatens to delay graduation for some countries. The analysis in this report focuses on how graduation will affect LDCs' trade relations, whether that graduation happens as planned or at a later date. Trade remains key to helping LDCs to increase incomes and maintain growth, and the report sheds light on potential support measures that graduating LDCs can explore, in cooperation with their trading partners and the broader international development community, in order to achieve sustainable graduation. Complementary to the first report published in June 2020 this second report examines in greater detail the impact of graduation on preferential market access for each of the 12 graduating LDCs. Co-published in August 2020 by the World Trade Organization and Enhanced Integrated Framework.

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
The private sector has an important role in poverty reduction in Asia. The Private Sector's Role in Poverty Reduction in Asia argues that the best way to create sustainable projects is to create win-win situations where both private companies and individuals working their way out of poverty can benefit.

A number of Asian economies are considered in turn, including: China; Vietnam; Thailand; Cambodia; Laos PDR; Southeast Asian countries; South Asian countries; Central Asian countries; and the Himalayas. The final chapter looks at creating sustainable win-win situations. - Focuses on practical advice for acting managers - Uses primary research carried out in developing economies, with interviews and ideas from local managers and business owners - Covers a variety of academic theories, empirical evidence and personal experiences of individuals working in the region

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In light of the current economic difficulties facing traditional development partners and the non-sustainable and non-inclusive nature of performance of the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) over the last decade, LDC governments need new development paths to tap into dynamic growth poles in the South. This publication explores the role of South-South cooperation and regional developmentalism, and finds that, in order to benefit from evolving South-South relations, LDCs need to transform into Catalytic Development States that are highly sensitive to LDC vulnerabilities and offer new policy agendas.
