There are signs that Malawi has started to consider some of the benefits that e-commerce can bring to its population and some important initiatives have been undertaken in this direction.

Download or read book Trade Facilitation in North Africa for Enhanced Regional Economic Integration written by Vereinte Nationen Economic Commission for Africa and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over recent years, the issue of trade facilitation has emerged as an important element of multilateral, regional, and bilateral trade debates. The growing importance of this issue has reflected the important structural changes in global production and trade over the last few decades. In particular, the expansion of global value chains as the key channel for organizing global production and trade over the last few decades entailed new requirements to facilitate the movement of parts and components and final goods across national borders. This report provides an analysis of the position of North Africa with regard to the trade facilitation agenda. The discussion is presented at three levels of analysis. The first is the national level, at which a thorough analysis is made of the policies of each North African country in respect of trade facilitation. The second is the regional level, where the focus is placed on initiatives within the North Africa region related to trade facilitation. At a third level, the analysis looks at this regional picture in the context of broader developments in the area of trade facilitation and, in this process, a comprehensive review of developments in this area has been conducted. In addition to multilateral processes, a special focus was given to other regional initiatives in this area with the objective of identifying examples of best practice policies that could be implemented in North Africa. The report is based on a number of sources. An analysis was made of the key policies on trade facilitation and a review conducted of the manner in which trade facilitation is dealt with in different trade agreements. A detailed analysis was also made of trade facilitation in a number of regional blocs. Lastly, a country-by-country analysis was carried out of trade facilitation in North Africa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work is constantly reshaped by technological progress. New ways of production are adopted, markets expand, and societies evolve. But some changes provoke more attention than others, in part due to the vast uncertainty involved in making predictions about the future. The 2019 World Development Report will study how the nature of work is changing as a result of advances in technology today. Technological progress disrupts existing systems. A new social contract is needed to smooth the transition and guard against rising inequality. Significant investments in human capital throughout a person’s lifecycle are vital to this effort. If workers are to stay competitive against machines they need to train or retool existing skills. A social protection system that includes a minimum basic level of protection for workers and citizens can complement new forms of employment. Improved private sector policies to encourage startup activity and competition can help countries compete in the digital age. Governments also need to ensure that firms pay their fair share of taxes, in part to fund this new social contract. The 2019 World Development Report presents an analysis of these issues based upon the available evidence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses key findings of the Sixth and Final Review for Malawi Under the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility (PRGF). Performance remained generally strong in the period under review. The authorities met most program targets for end-December 2007, and domestic debt fell as a share of GDP, but the domestic borrowing performance criterion was missed. The government aims to meet the 2007/08 domestic borrowing target. Higher fuel and fertilizer prices are putting pressure on international reserves, which are down from an already inadequate level.
