5.1 Macroeconomic stance is crucial to diversification outcomes: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| An important aspect of the diversification debate and of Africa’s experience has to
do with the role that macroeconomic policy plays. This has also been investigated at the continental level in the results that are presented in table A5.1. Two important
indicators of macroeconomic stability, depending on the macroeconomic policy in
operation, are inflation and real effective exchange rates and these are found to be
among the most critical determinants of diversification outcomes in Africa. |

OPENING THE DOOR IN THE EAST TO WESTERN CAPITAL
| |
| Many companies in Eurasia are looking to the West for capital, expertise, and much more these days. But few actually have the necessary experience, contacts, and knowledge to acquire them. The rapid growth and development of Eurasia’s economies and a resurgence of its domestic markets has sprawled the need for additional financial resources in the form of loans, investments, and other financial instruments. Western companies can also take advantage of the exciting opportunities currently available in Eurasia. This article shows the way for both. |

Wanted: jobs for Africa’s youth - Diversification
| |
| The Youth Employment Network, an alliance of countries initiated by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in collaboration with the heads of the ILO and World Bank, recommends that governments diversify their economies and promote sectors that use a lot of workers. Many African economies still rely on the production of one or two primary commodities. They could diversify into processing these commodities or producing light manufactures, as Mauritius has successfully done. |

4.0 Diversification trends in Africa: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| The diversification of African economies is one way through which the recent economic
growth achievements could be sustained. Africa’s economic transformation
can be achieved through both horizontal and vertical diversification. In addition,
such diversification will help to build competitive economies that can productively
be integrated into the global economy. Diversification is therefore a pre-condition if
Africa is to register accelerated development. The scaling-up of current real growth
to desired levels and in a broad manner can also be sustained if there is deepening in
the diversification of African economies. |

5.1 The development model should determine the optimal trade policy: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| The two-stage diversification process from economic history has been registered both
in open and closed economies. The difference between the two is that the turning
point after reasonable and sustainable development has been achieved occurs at a
much earlier point for open economies compared to the case for closed economies. |

VIII. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION: Stock Market Development in Sub-Saharan Africa
| |
| Over the past few decades, the world stock markets have surged, and emerging markets have
accounted for a large amount of this boom. In Africa, new stock markets have been
established in Ghana, Malawi, Swaziland, Uganda, and Zambia. The rapid development of
stock markets in Africa does not mean that even the most advanced African stock markets
are mature. |

Public Sector Procurement Practice and the Principles of External Economies, Clustering and the Global Value Chain
| |
| Can the public sector effectively apply the principles of External Economies to its procurement practice?
“External economies of scale (ES) occur outside of a firm, within an industry. Thus, when an industry’s scope of operations expands due to, for example, the creation of a better transportation network, resulting in a subsequent decrease in costs for a company working within that industry, external economies of scale are said to have been achieved. With external ES, all firms within the industry will benefit.” (What Are Economies of Scale? By Reem Heakal, January 2003)

Is China Running Out Of Our Money?
| |
| It's been said that the trouble with collectivist economic approaches, such as socialism and communism, is that, eventually, you run out of other peoples' money. If there's a lesson from the last century of adventures in collective statism, I guess it's that the big collective economies only work for a while, and only if there's a bigger free-market economy out there (like ours has been), cranking out growth and creating markets for the rest of the world.... |
