Treichel, VolkerLin, Justin Yifu2012-03-192012-03-192011-08-01https://hdl.handle.net/10986/3539This paper applies the Growth Identification and Facilitation Framework developed by Lin and Monga (2010) to Nigeria. It identifies as appropriate comparator countries China, India, Indonesia, and Vietnam, and selects a wide range of industries in which these comparator countries may be losing their comparative advantage and which may therefore lend themselves to targeted interventions of the government to fast-track growth. These industries include food processing, light manufacturing, suitcases, shoes, car parts, and petrochemicals. The paper also discusses binding constraints to growth in each of these value chains as well as mechanisms through which governance-related issues in the implementation of industrial policy could be addressed.CC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO INFORMATIONADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURESAGRICULTUREALCOHOLIC BEVERAGESBASE YEARBENCHMARKBLOGBOTTLENECKSBROADBANDBUSINESS DEVELOPMENTBUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SERVICESBUSINESS ENVIRONMENTBUSINESS OPPORTUNITIESBUSINESSESCALL CENTERSCAPABILITYCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPACITY-BUILDINGCARCARBONCOMMODITIESCOMMODITYCOMPARATIVE ADVANTAGECOMPETITIVENESSCOMPUTERSCPICUSTOMSCUSTOMS CLEARANCESDEBTDEVELOPED COUNTRIESDEVELOPMENT ECONOMICSDEVELOPMENT POLICYECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTSECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC PERFORMANCEECONOMICSECONOMIES OF SCALEELASTICITYEMPLOYMENT CREATIONENVIRONMENTALENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONSEXPORTSEXTERNALITIESFARMSFINANCIAL CRISISFINANCIAL INSTRUMENTSFINANCIAL SECTORFINANCIAL SERVICESFISHFISHERIESFOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTFOREIGN EXCHANGEFREIGHTFREIGHT TRANSPORTGDP PER CAPITAGEOGRAPHICAL AREASGLOBAL MARKETGLOBALIZATIONGOVERNMENT SUBSIDIESGROWTH POTENTIALGROWTH RATEGROWTH STRATEGYHIGH EMPLOYMENTHUMAN CAPITALICTINCOMEINCOME TAXINDUSTRIAL STRUCTUREINFLATION RATEINFORMATION SYSTEMSINFRASTRUCTURE REAL ESTATEINNOVATIONINPUT USEINSPECTIONINSURANCEINTEREST RATESINTERNATIONAL COMPANIESINVENTIONSJOB CREATIONJOINT VENTURESLABOR COSTSLABOR FORCELABOR INPUTSLABOR MARKETLABOR PRODUCTIVITYLABOR SUPPLYLEGAL BASISLICENSESMACROECONOMIC POLICIESMANUFACTURINGMARKET FAILURESMARKET MECHANISMMATERIALMEMORY CHIPMERGERSMOTOR VEHICLENATURAL RESOURCENATURAL RESOURCESOILOPECOPEN ACCESSPATENTSPER CAPITA INCOMEPETROLEUM PRODUCTSPHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTUREPOLITICAL ECONOMYPOSITIVE EFFECTSPRIVATE INVESTMENTPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPSPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTORSPRODUCERSPRODUCT INNOVATIONPRODUCTIVITY GROWTHPRODUCTIVITY INCREASESPUBLIC SECTOR INVESTMENTR&DREAL GDPREGULATORY ENVIRONMENTREGULATORY FRAMEWORKRENTSRESULTRESULTSRETAIL TRADEROADROAD VEHICLESROADSRURAL ROADSSAFETYSAFETY STANDARDSSCARCE CAPITALSEARCHSERVANTSSPECTRUM MANAGEMENTSTRUCTURAL CHANGESUPPLY CHAINTAX INCENTIVESTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETECHNICAL TRAININGTECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONTECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESSTECHNOLOGY TRANSFERTELECOMMUNICATIONTELECOMMUNICATIONSTELECOMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRIESTIMBERTIRESTOTAL FACTOR PRODUCTIVITYTRADE FACILITATIONTRADE POLICYTRADE POLICY REFORMTRAINING COSTSTRANSACTIONTRANSACTIONS COSTSTRANSPARENCYTRANSPORTTRANSPORT EQUIPMENTTRANSPORT SERVICESTRANSPORTATIONTRIPSTRUEUNEMPLOYEDUNEMPLOYMENTUNEMPLOYMENT RATEUNSKILLED LABORUSESVALUE CHAINVALUE CHAINSWAGESWEALTHWEALTH CREATIONWEBWORK FORCEWorld Bank10.1596/1813-9450-5776
