5.2 Growth, productivity and diversification: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| There is abundant literature that suggests that there is a two-way relationship between
exports and growth. However, an important aspect of this evidence is that it is not
just the level of exports that leads to growth but also the level of diversified exports
or products. |

5.1 Faster economic growth could assist in diversification efforts: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| The results for Africa, shown in table A5.1, suggest further that as income per capita
increases, there is a tendency for African economies to experience improvement in
their diversification processes. This is a very significant result and it is in line with
other empirical evidence, (see Imbs and Wacziarg 2003), which shows that poor
countries tend to diversify at first as their incomes rise, before they later begin to
become more specialized. African countries also fit into this theory of the U-shaped
stages of diversification. |
