    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: Three novel macroeconomic policy challenges are discussed in this paper: the macroeconomic implications of China’s emergence; the implications of intensifying financial integration; and the interaction of Asia’s foreign exchange regime with monetary policy in the OECD area. First, China may now be regarded as a price maker on some international commodity and energy markets. Its global impact nowadays stretches importantly not just into goods and commodity markets, but equally into world financial markets. The acquisition by the Chinese official sector of large amounts of foreign assets has raised the country’s global cyclical, financial and macroeconomic importance. Hence, China should not just be perceived as a producer of low-priced goods, but likewise of “cheap savings”. China as a swing exporter/importer could destabilise commodity markets, with important repercussions for developing countries. Variations in China’s output gap will have important repercussions on key global ...

    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: Access to energy is essential for economic, social and political development. Despite its enormous potential in fossil and renewable energy sources, Africa suffers from major energy deficits. The continent’s resources are underexploited or exported in raw form or wasted in the course of extraction or transport. As a result, supplies available for local populations are largely insufficient and energy consumption is essentially reliant on biomass.

    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: L’accès à l’énergie est une composante essentielle du développement économique, social et politique. Malgré un potentiel énorme en énergies fossiles et renouvelables, l’Afrique présente des déficits énergétiques importants. Les ressources du continent sont sous-exploitées, ou exportées sous forme brute, ou bien encore gaspillées lors de l’extraction ou du transport. En conséquence, l’offre disponible pour les populations est largement insuffisante et la consommation d’énergie s’articule essentiellement autour de la biomasse.

    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: S’appuyant sur une croissance mondiale soutenue et la hausse du cours des matières premières, l’Afrique a enregistré en 2004 d’excellentes performances économiques, les meilleures depuis de nombreuses années. Cependant, si ces résultats récents ne sont pas uniquement à porter au crédit de facteurs externes, les pays d’Afrique ne sont toujours pas dotés des "amortisseurs" nécessaires pour résister aux chocs internes et externes. Ils restent donc extrêmement vulnérables. Dans ces circonstances, créer les conditions propices au développement de moteurs internes de croissance constitue la priorité absolue.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. L'économie africaine en 2004 : des perspectives prometteuses ?
    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: Against a backdrop of sustained global growth and high commodity prices, Africa has experienced its best economic performance in many years. While recent economic performance is not merely driven by favourable external factors, African economies still lack proper “shock-absorbers” to withstand internal (e.g. drought and floods, political instability, HIV-Aids, etc.) and external (e.g. volatility of commodity prices and exchange rates) shocks alike. They remain strongly vulnerable. In this context, creating the conditions for the development of indigenous drivers of economic activity (starting with a thriving local private sector) is a top priority.

    Abstract: Southern Africa suffers from disproportionately expensive capital and this is denying the region its full growth potential. This book presents the ideas and proposals of a group of experts and practitioners from the state and business environments, brought together by the OECD Development Centre with public and private sector partners, on reducing the cost of capital in the region. It thus provides a unique insight into the nature of the problem of the cost of capital in Southern Africa and the effects it has on business activity and infrastructure development. In addition, the authors set out to define strategies for reducing capital cost, outlining measures suitable for government and private actors. "This collection makes a very worthwhile and stimulating contribution to the important question of reducing capital costs in Southern Africa." -Ian Plenderleith, Southern African Reserve Bank
