The current post-crisis environment and
fragile economic recovery increases the importance of aid
for trade. Global rebalancing and tightened fiscal budgets
in the short to medium term also place renewed emphasis on
aid effectiveness. This note identifies four options to
enhance the effectiveness of the multilateral aid for trade
initiative: (i) expanding market access for least-developed
countries (LDCs) through leadership by middle-income G-20
members; (ii) creating a mechanism to identify good
practices in domestic regulation of service markets and
other 'behind-the-border' trade-related policies;
(iii) leveraging the dynamism and knowledge of the private
sector to improve trade facilitation and build capacity; and
(iv) but a renewed 'activism' by government in the
trade and growth agenda need not mean. |
