Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2012 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, , language: English, abstract: The new world order is one where the flow of external resources especially to emerging economies such as Kenya is shrinking. Indeed, the recent recession in developed countries was a wakeup call to many that the expected resources could one day dry up. This is happening when the need for support is increasing, hence, the need to become self sustainable and to increase the level of resources that can be raised domestically. Domestic resource mobilization (DRM) refers to the savings and investment generated by households, domestic firms, and government. The need for African countries to mobilize domestic resources as a medium-to long-term goal is now widely accepted. In the past, Africa has been rated poorly as relates to saving and investment. A sustained increase in growth rates require higher level of savings and investment, as well as increased investment productivity. Developing countries and those in transition are at present confronting unsustainable fiscal deficits; unabated debt service charges and declining external assistance, seriously affecting their development process. Domestic tax revenues are the most sustainable source of financing for public expenditures in developing countries. The experience with domestic resource mobilization of developing countries over the last 25 years has been mixed. In countries such as Botswana, Israel, Kuwait and Seychelles, the central government revenue’s share in GDP has been more than 40 percent on average. The issue of tax compliance is extremely important both to those concerned with the key role increased tax yields can play in restoring macroeconomic balance and to those concerned with tax policy and its effects on the economy in general. However, the ability of developing countries’ governments to raise direct tax revenues is constrained by a number of external and internal factors. [...]

Download or read book Unlocking Africa's Business Potential written by Landry Signe and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa welcomes business investment and offers some of the world's highest returns and impacts Africa has tremendous economic potential and offers rewarding opportunities for global businesses looking for new markets and long-term investments with favorable returns. Africa has been one of the world's fastest-growing regions over the past decade, and by 2030 will be home to nearly 1.7 billion people and an estimated $6.7 trillion worth of consumer and business spending. Increased political stability in recent years and improving regional integration are making market access easier, and business expansion will generate jobs for women and youth, who represent the vast majority of the population. Current economic growth and poverty-alleviation efforts mean that more than 43 percent of the continent's people will reach middle- or upper-class status by 2030. Unlocking Africa's Business Potential examines business opportunities in the eight sectors with the highest potential returns on private investment—the same sectors that will foster economic growth and diversification, job creation, and improved general welfare. These sectors include: consumer markets, agriculture and agriprocessing, information and communication technology, manufacturing, oil and gas, tourism, banking, and infrastructure and construction. The book's analysis of these sectors is based on case studies that identify specific opportunities for investment and growth, along with long-term market projections to inform decision-making. The book identifies potential risks to business and offers mitigation strategies. It also provides policymakers with solutions to attract new business investments, including how to remove barriers to business and accelerate development of the private sector.
Book Synopsis Unlocking The Human Potential For Public Sector Performance World Public Sector Report 2005 by : United Nations
Download or read book Unlocking The Human Potential For Public Sector Performance World Public Sector Report 2005 written by United Nations and published by Academic Foundation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conditions of globalization, including economic integration, fiscal discipline, introduction of information communications technologies and democratic governance, have increasingly forced states to redefine their role in public management and to reform the public administration system. However, there is growing realization among decision makers that policy and institutional reform per se will not be sufficient to revitalize the public sector. Major strengthening of the knowledge, skills, values, attitudes and leadership abilities of human capital is also needed to transform the public sector, particularly in developing countries and countries with economies in transition. This year's report is expected to contribute to global and national debates on this topic.--Publisher's description.

Book Synopsis Unlocking the potential of protected agriculture in the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council - Saving water and improving nutrition by : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Download or read book Unlocking the potential of protected agriculture in the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council - Saving water and improving nutrition written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is a political and economic union of Arab states, namely Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the Unites Arab Emirates. The GCC was formed in 1981 to strengthen the members’ economic, social and political ties by harmonizing regulations in various fields including economy, finance, trade and customs. The region extends over a territory of 2 673 108 km2 and is home to about 50 million people. The common denominators of the GCC countries are limited natural fertile land, scarce water resources and harsh climate. Depending on the country, the agriculture sector may use as much as 75 percent of the national available water resources. This has enormous environmental costs and significantly affects the sustainability of overall development in the Arabian Peninsula.According to Al-Rashed and Sherif (2000), the lack of renewable water resources is one of the critical constraints to sustainable development in the GCC countries. Rainfall in the Arabian Peninsula is scarce and infrequent. Over-exploitation of fossil groundwater resources, mostly to meet irrigation demands and create greenery lands, has already affected the productivity of aquifers, both quantitatively and qualitatively, despite the fact that much of the freshwater demand in the GCC countries is already covered using desalinated water. Reducing water consumption and increasing water efficiency are essential to enhancing agriculture and moving towards increased self-sufficiency with the production of high-quality, safe and diversified foods in the GCC countries. Exploiting the full potential of protected agriculture should save significant amounts of water, which can be used not only for agriculture but for other needs as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses Kenya’s First Review Under the Twelve-Month Stand-by Arrangement and the Arrangement Under the Standby Credit Facility, Request for Waivers for Nonobservance of Performance Criterion (PC), and Request for Modification of PC. All quantitative PCs for end-March 2015 were met, but the continuous performance criterion on external arrears was not observed owing to the emergence of temporary technical arrears on external debt. The IMF staff recommends completion of the first review and supports the authorities’ request for a modification of PCs for end-September 2015, and for waivers for nonobservance of the PCs on external arrears.
Book Synopsis Unlock the Sales Game by : Ari Galper

Book excerpt: "Ari Galper's Unlock The Game is the greatest sales breakthrough in the last 20 years." Brian Tracy, Founder of Brian Tracy International Stop selling, start creating trust. If you flick through the pages of typical sales books and sales training material, you will find a constant flow of sales messages like, "Focus on closing the sale", "Overcome objections", "Be relentless", "Accept rejection as a normal part of selling", "Use persuasion to get useful information about your prospects", and "Chase the sale". In short, get the sale at the expense of the human relationship. For the customer, this approach is transparent and all too familiar. Crossing social boundaries and adding pressure to the sales process makes it a gut-wrenching and painful process. There is a much better way to succeed in selling - moving away from the hidden agenda of focusing on making the sale to a place of complete trust and authenticity. When you arrive at this place, it opens up a whole new world of sales opportunities for you and your business. In other words, when you stop "selling" and start building authentic relationships based on trust, authenticity and integrity, the possibilities are endless. Ari Galper, The World's #1 Authority on Trust-Based Selling, and founder of Unlock The Game, the most successful trust-based selling approach adopted by thousands of business owners and sales consultants worldwide, has dramatically changed the way millions of sales transactions are made today. In his new book "Unlock The Sales Game", he directly challenges all the selling "rules" that are considered status quo thinking among most small and large businesses and provides a new and authentic sales mindset -- along with his very powerful trust-based languaging -- that is taking the sales world by storm. Here's a sampling of what you'll discover: Seven Ways to Cut Loose from Old Sales Thinking How to Sales Call Using Your Right Brain - So You Can Make Selling Enjoyable and Productive Seven Steps to Selling Follow-Up Seven Ways to Stop Chasing Decision Makers How to Recognise and Diffuse Hidden Pressures in Selling The Surprising Truth About Selling - Three Selling Myths and Why They Hurt You No More Selling Scripts?

Book Synopsis World Development Report 2021 by : World Bank
Download or read book World Development Report 2021 written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today’s unprecedented growth of data and their ubiquity in our lives are signs that the data revolution is transforming the world. And yet much of the value of data remains untapped. Data collected for one purpose have the potential to generate economic and social value in applications far beyond those originally anticipated. But many barriers stand in the way, ranging from misaligned incentives and incompatible data systems to a fundamental lack of trust. World Development Report 2021: Data for Better Lives explores the tremendous potential of the changing data landscape to improve the lives of poor people, while also acknowledging its potential to open back doors that can harm individuals, businesses, and societies. To address this tension between the helpful and harmful potential of data, this Report calls for a new social contract that enables the use and reuse of data to create economic and social value, ensures equitable access to that value, and fosters trust that data will not be misused in harmful ways. This Report begins by assessing how better use and reuse of data can enhance the design of public policies, programs, and service delivery, as well as improve market efficiency and job creation through private sector growth. Because better data governance is key to realizing this value, the Report then looks at how infrastructure policy, data regulation, economic policies, and institutional capabilities enable the sharing of data for their economic and social benefits, while safeguarding against harmful outcomes. The Report concludes by pulling together the pieces and offering an aspirational vision of an integrated national data system that would deliver on the promise of producing high-quality data and making them accessible in a way that promotes their safe use and reuse. By examining these opportunities and challenges, the Report shows how data can benefit the lives of all people, particularly poor people in low- and middle-income countries. .

Download or read book Kenya written by International Monetary Fund. African Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kenyan economy faces multiple near-term challenges—including limited fiscal and external buffers, elevated cost of living, exchange rate pressures, tight financial conditions—while global headwinds are weighing on activity. Tackling these challenges and ensuring a steady reduction of Kenya’s debt and debt vulnerabilities will require addressing difficult policy trade-offs with mutually reinforcing policies and carefully prioritizing the authorities’ “bottom-up” reform agenda. Downside risks to the program baseline are significant in the near term from elevated uncertainty in major economies’ outlook and in the event of insufficient policy actions to sustainably address the FX market dislocation, elevated inflation, and emerging slowdown in tax revenues.

Book Synopsis Unlocking markets to smallholders by : Herman D. van Schalkwyk
Download or read book Unlocking markets to smallholders written by Herman D. van Schalkwyk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-03-10 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the institutional, technical and market constraints as well as opportunities for smallholders, notably, emerging farmers in disadvantaged areas such as the former homelands of South Africa. Emerging farmers are previously disadvantaged black people who started or will start their business with the support of special government programs. Public support programs have been developed as part of the Black Economic Empowerment strategy of the South African government. These programs aim to improve the performance of emerging farmers. This requires, first and foremost, upgrading the emerging farmers skills by providing access to knowledge about agricultural and entrepreneurial practices. To become or to remain good farmers they also need access to suitable agricultural land and sufficient water for irrigation and for feeding their cattle. Finally, for emerging farmers to be engaged in viable farming operations, various factors need to be in place such as marketing and service institutions to give credit for agricultural inputs and investments; input markets for farm machinery, farm implements, fertilizers and quality seeds; and accessible output markets for their end products. This book develops a policy framework and potential institutional responses to unlock the relevant markets for smallholders.
Book Synopsis Unlocking Africa's Potential by : Neuma Grobbelaar
Download or read book Unlocking Africa's Potential written by Neuma Grobbelaar and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Since 1994, South Africa firms have emerged as some of the largest investors in the rest of Africa. Present in a wide range of sectors across the continent, they have been involved in changing not only Africa's cityscapes and societies, but also, significantly, the conduct of business in the region. This volume draws together authors from different parts of the world who are keenly interested in the development of Africa's private sector. Based in part on the research that the South African Institute of International Affairs (SAIIA) has conducted on the experiences of South African companies in 9 countries across the continent, the volume takes as its standpoint the view that sustainable development in Africa can only be achieved if the private sector is allowed to flourish. Highlighting the importance of public-private partnership in achieving this vision, it offers recommendations on how to strengthen the private sector in Africa for policy-makers interested in the continent's development."--P. [4] of cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After 3 years of historic reforms, Myanmar has entered a pivotal stage in its socioeconomic development. Natural, cultural, and demographic advantages are positioning the country for long-term success, but many challenges and potential pitfalls lie ahead. This publication examines how to leverage the opportunities and offers solutions to the challenges. For Myanmar to achieve its economic transition, considerable investments will have to be made in infrastructure and developing human capital, and progress made on building institutional capacity, a regulatory environment for the private sector to flourish, and a modern finance sector. In all reform efforts, the government should embrace good governance, and strive for inclusive, environmentally sustainable, and regionally connected growth. Ensuring that the benefits of growth are shared broadly and regionally balanced stands out in a crowded development agenda.
