Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Nigeria did not make the International Monetary Fund (IMF) list on export diversification, comprising two African nations.<\/p>\n

The global agency urged countries to focus on governance, education, infrastructure, and open trade, to achieve profitable exports.<\/p>\n

In new findings made available to DAILY POST, the IMF said the economy-wide factors relate closely to more varied and complex exports globally.<\/p>\n

The institution observed that several countries have much stronger policies than expected for their income levels. Two countries in Africa were recognized for their efforts.<\/p>\n

\u201cRwanda for governance; Georgia and Ukraine for educational attainment; Malaysia for infrastructure; and Mauritius and Peru for tariffs. These economies can be role models\u201d, the report noted.<\/p>\n

It revealed that as the world\u2019s biggest copper producer, Chile\u2019s shipments meet around one-third of global demand and represent about half its goods exports.<\/p>\n

IMF said apart from the dominance in mining, Chile\u2019s trade flows are more varied and complex than they may appear, with significant exports of vehicles, pharmaceuticals and telecommunications equipment.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Andean economy is among those that shine as a role model for diversification policies\u201d, the institution added.<\/p>\n

IMF expects that the findings can better guide nations aiming to expand their international trade.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe examination of 201 countries and territories goes beyond the economic complexity indices that have traditionally been used by economists.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose proxies for the productive capability of a given economic system have strong sensitivity to commodities, which can distort their accuracy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe analysis shows that, except for abundant copper reserves, Chile\u2019s economic profile, surprisingly, resembles Malaysia\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Asian nation has similarly strong education and institutions, but it benefits from being much closer to the major global supply-chain hubs of China, Japan and Korea.<\/p>\n

\u201cProminent Asian and European exporters, from Hong Kong and Singapore to Ireland and Denmark, have among the most diverse and complex shipments and the strongest horizontal policies.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor governments aspiring to more varied trade flows, the new approach to explaining diversification underscores the need to effectively shorten geographic distance by enhancing connectivity between nations.<\/p>\n

\u201cBetter transportation logistics, at seaports for example, effectively shorten distance by reducing transit times for goods, easing trade policy barriers, enhancing trade facilitation.<\/p>\n

\u201cOthers are fostering the spread of technology through educational exchange programs, and investing in communication technologies such as broadband that support the digital economy\u201d, it added.<\/p>\n

Mauritius has a high human development score and an economy performing well, with major contributions from financial services, tourism and information technology.<\/p>\n

Just 24 hours prior to the IMF report, Mauritius emerged the most innovative African country on the Global Innovation Index 2021, placing 52nd among 132 countries.<\/p>\n

Mauritius was followed by South Africa (61), Tunisia (71) and Kenya (85) in terms of innovation.<\/p>\n

Ten moved improved in the low-income group. Rwanda (102), Kenya (85), Cape Verde (89), Egypt (94), Namibia (100), Malawi (107), Madagascar (110), Zimbabwe (113), Burkina Faso (115) and Algeria (120).<\/p>\n

The GII 2021 was published by World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) in partnership with the Portulans Institute.<\/p>\n

The ranking is based on nations\u2019 performance in institutions, human capital and research, infrastructure, market sophistication, business sophistication, knowledge and technology outputs, creative outputs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
