dc.description.abstractThe report highlights the important links between good governance on a level legal and regulatory playing field, and the ability of investment to stimulate growth. Investment in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has been strong over the last two decades in comparison with Latin America and Eastern Europe. However, in the oil exporting countries, it has been primarily supported by large and expanding public investments. Oil importers, in contrast, have shown more strength in private investment, which has increased in recent years. A concern with reliance on public investment is that in economies with weak governance there is no evidence that public investment stimulates growth. In contrast, in countries with an adequate level of protection of property rights and legal institutions, public investment is strongly linked to growth. The report also makes a strong case for private investment in services and manufacturing as engines of job creation and income growth in the region.en
dc.description.abstractCette édition des évolutions et perspectives économiques de la région Moyen-Orient et Afrique du Nord (MENA) anticipe une amélioration comparée aux prévisions de mai 2011. Le rapport prévoit une croissance moyenne de 4,1 pourcent en 2011 et de 3,8 pourcent en 2012. Cette évolution positive est attribuable en grande partie aux augmentations des dépenses publiques qui ont activé la demande dans toute la région, aux augmentations de la production de pétrole dans la plupart des pays exportateurs de pétrole de MENA et à une reprise plus rapide que prévu de la production industrielle en Égypte. En outre, les perspectives de croissance de l’Iran se sont améliorées lorsque la réforme des subventions est entrée en vigueur et que les gains d’efficacité ont commencé à se réaliser. Néanmoins, le nombre d’emplois créés au cours de la dernière décennie a été considérablement inférieur au nombre nécessaire pour faire face aux principaux enjeux, tels que le niveau élevé du chômage des jeunes, les faibles taux de participation de la main-d’œuvre, en particulier parmi les femmes, et l’accroissement rapide de la population active. Le rapport analyse le problème de la création d’emplois dans la région à la lumière de la croissance du revenu. Les services autres que les services publics et le secteur manufacturier peuvent servir de moteurs. Si la majorité de l’investissement direct de l’étranger (IED) reçu par la région MENA va au secteur de l’immobilier et au secteur pétrolier, la majorité des emplois liés sont créés dans le secteur manufacturier. Le rapport met aussi en évidence l’importance d’un bon état de droit et d’une meilleure gouvernance nécessaire pour permettre à l’investissement public d’appuyer la croissance du revenu et une meilleure attractivité de l’investissement privé dans des domaines comme les services et le secteur manufacturier, qui sont les principaux facteurs de croissance du revenu et de création d’emplois.fr
