    Abstract: Strong commodity prices are driving Africa’s growth, which should be about 6 % in 2007 and 2008. External vulnerability is a function of its limited integration into international trade and investment flows. Africa should mobilise external sources more strategically. In this respect, aid for trade can be import. * This Policy Insights introduces the African Economic Outlook 2007.

    Abstract: La bonne tenue des cours des matières premières tire la croissance africaine, qui devrait avoisiner les 6 pour cent en 2007 et 2008. Une insuffisante intégration du continent dans le commerce international et les flux mondiaux d’investissement est source de vulnérabilité extérieure. L’Afrique doit développer une véritable stratégie de mobilisation des ressources externes, notamment en utilisant davantage l’aide pour favoriser son insertion commerciale. démocratisation.

    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: China’s and India’s strong appetite for energy and metal has boosted international prices and the volume and value of African exports. China in particular has become the main trade partner for a number of African countries providing cheap manufactured goods and reducing Africa's dependence from its traditional trading partners. Despite the push for exports, terms of trade and growth that the Asian giants provide to Africa, risks for sustainable poverty reduction are visible in higher raw material dependence and rent-seeking activities.

Cependant la persistance d’un prix élevé du pétrole constitue à moyen terme un risque important pour les importateurs africains d’hydrocarbures.

    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: 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.

    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 ...

    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

    Abstract: Decentralisation has been advocated by donors and development agencies as an important factor broadening citizen participation and improving local governance, thereby promoting poverty reduction from the bottom up. On the basis of a comprehensive review of 19 country case studies documented in the literature, this paper questions this assumption.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Which Policies Can Reduce the Cost of Capital in Southern Africa ?
    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: . La réduction des taux d’intérêt et par conséquent des coûts de ?nancement dans la zone rand (Lesotho, Namibie, Swaziland et Afrique du Sud) est essentielle à la promotion de l’investissement et de la croissance économique. . Dans ces pays, les taux d’intérêt en monnaie locale dépendent de ceux qui s’appliquent aux transactions libellées en rands. La réduction du niveau et de la volatilité de la prime sur le rand permettrait donc de réduire les coûts de ?nancement dans cette zone. . Les mesures de politiques économiques doivent s’attacher à accroître la liquidité des marchés ?nanciers sudafricains, faciliter l’accès des entreprises et gouvernements africains à ces derniers, encourager l’épargne domestique en Afrique du Sud, et rehausser l’image du rand auprès des investisseurs internationaux. . Johannesburg pourrait devenir un centre ?nancier régional, et permettrait ainsi l’acheminement de ressources bon marché vers ses voisins.

    Keywords: Development
    Abstract: . Lowering interest rates and, thus, the cost of borrowing in the rand zone (Lesotho, Namibia, Swaziland and South Africa) is a priority to promote investment and economic growth. . Local-currency interest rates in these countries are driven by those on rand-denominated transactions. Reducing the level and volatility of the rand premium would help reduce ?nancing costs in the region. . Policies should promote: enhancing ?nancial-market liquidity; easier access to South African ?nancial markets for African entities; domestic saving capacity; and the improvement of international perception of the rand. . Johannesburg could become a ?nancial “hub” for the region, channelling cheap resources to its neighbours.

    Abstract: One of the priorities set out in the Capital Flows Initiative of the NEPAD is to increase private capital flows to Africa, whereby providing African economies with longterm affordable and sustainable resources to finance their development. In this respect, lower debt costs may be of utmost importance in boosting investment and future output growth on the continent. This paper aims at identifying the determinants of South African currency premia — such premia usually form an important element of debt cost in developing countries — in order to assess the scope of South African economic policies for narrowing the spread on local-currency denominated debt. South Africa is one among very few emerging economies able to borrow long-term domestically and abroad in its own currency, the rand, and one of the few to have developed its domestic bond market fairly well. However, the rand nominal exchange rate has proved increasingly unstable and volatile over the last years. As a result ...
