African LDCs are at the centre of this shift. In 2009 emerging partners have overtaken traditional partners in trade with African LDCs. Manufactured exports have followed this shift and go to 52 percent to emerging partners. FDI is still largely provided by traditional partners but will likely follow the trend of trade. | | Copyright Holder | Economic Policy Research Centre (EPRC) | | Copyright URL | http://www.eprc.or.ug | | Filesize | 899865 MB | | File Format | PDF | | [ View / download original document ] |
