dc.description.abstract	Over a two-year period, beginning in late 2004, the Nigerian federal government implemented one of the most ambitious port concessioning programs ever attempted. The success of this program resulted from the government's vision and decisiveness, as well as the need to remedy massive shortcomings in the sector, which were sharply inhibiting economic development. But the program also benefited strongly from policy reform recommendations made by PPIAF-funded consultants in 2002. The role of these upstream policy and planning recommendations highlights the value of best practice steps for creating an enabling environment in which sustainable arrangements for the private participation in infrastructure can be concluded.	en

Global Economic Prospects, January 2023

World Bank (2023-01-10)

Global growth is projected to decelerate sharply, reflecting synchronous policy tightening aimed at containing very high inflation, worsening financial conditions, and continued disruptions from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Investment growth in emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs) is expected to remain below its average rate of the past two decades. Further adverse shocks could push the global economy into recession. Small states are especially vulnerable to such shocks because of the reliance on external trade and financing, limited economic diversification, elevated debt, and susceptibility to natural disasters. Against this backdrop, it is critical that EMDE policy makers ensure that any fiscal support is focused on vulnerable groups, that inflation expectations remain well anchored, and that financial systems continue to be resilient. Urgent global and national efforts are also needed to mitigate the risks of global recession and debt distress in EMDEs, and to support a major increase in EMDE investment.

Measuring Exposure to Risk in Global Value Chains

Borin, Alessandro; Mancini, Michele; Taglioni, Daria (2021-09)

How exposed are countries and sectors to GVC risks? GVC participation matters for answering this question. Standard approaches either overstate the degree of backward integration or underestimate the involvement of some industries, especially services, in Global Value Chain (GVC) activity. To correct these biases, this paper proposes a novel comprehensive method to measure GVC participation using Inter-Country Input-Output (ICIO) linkages in both trade and output and shows that these improvements in methodology matter from a macroeconomic perspective. GVC integration, as measured by the indicators, decreases the exposure to domestic shocks and increases that to global shocks. The paper also finds that exposure to shocks is complex: in most countries and sectors, output is simultaneously exposed to supply and demand shocks. This two-sided exposure suggests that disruptions may not be easily managed by unilateral policy attempts at forcing a reorganization of buyers-seller relationships.

Cameroun - Rapport National sur le Climat et le Développement

World Bank Group (2022)

Le Rapport National sur le Climat et le développement (Climate Change Development Report-CCDR) identifie les moyens par lesquels le Cameroun peut atteindre ses objectifs généraux de développement tout en favorisant la transition vers une voie de développement plus verte, résiliente et inclusive. Le CCDR constate que le changement climatique est déjà une menace pour le développement du Cameroun et que le pays est confronté au défi de changer le modèle de développement actuel de manière à créer des opportunités pour renforcer la résilience et positionner le pays sur une trajectoire de développement plus dynamique. Actuellement, environ 2 millions de personnes (9 pour cent de la population du Cameroun) vivent dans des zones affectées par la sécheresse, et environ 8 pour cent du PIB du pays est vulnérable. Les forêts tropicales couvrent près de 40 pour cent du pays et fournissent à environ 8 millions de ruraux des produits de base traditionnels, notamment des aliments, des médicaments, du carburant et des matériaux de construction. Les changements de température, de pluviométrie et de ...
