Over the last ten years, the Government of Ghana has shown a firm strategic commitment to attracting export-oriented investments, facilitating trade and enhancing Ghanaian competitiveness. Reforming the processes and procedures used by the nation's Customs, Excise and Preventative Service was a major contributor in working towards these goals. In recognizing the important role played by the private sector in driving economic growth for Ghana, the Government looked to a PPP to help build, own and operate the process of integrating and improving its customs operations. The PPP was regulated and reviewed internally by a board of directors and externally by the Ministry of Trade and Industry.

There are currently about 20 automobile suppliers with Swedish roots in Michigan, and, according to [Lennart Johansson], there is room for more. "But before attempting to expand to a global market, the suppliers' products need to be established in local markets," he says. "The Swedes are inventive and competent, although they're not great at selling their products or marketing themselves, skills that Americans practice in school." However, Lennart believes that with focus and unique product solutions, Swedish suppliers will continue to be successful competitors in global markets. "Especially now that the trend is to give suppliers commissions to deliver entire technical solutions, from product development to delivery - an area where the Swedes already possess expertise," he adds.

In an interview, Simon Anholt, a leading specialist in creating brand strategies for countries, talked about how a country's "brand" can help or hinder its exports. He said that the biggest danger is people making naive comparisons between branding in the private sector and what it can do for countries. There is recognition that image may be one of the primary barriers to economic development, but methodologies from the corporate sector applied clumsily onto national development are extremely dangerous. Countries can prepare a brand strategy that shows what their image would need to be to achieve their economic and social goals, and how to deserve that image. Branding is not what most people think it is. It is one of the key creators and sustainers of wealth in developed countries. Ther...

The admittance of amicus curiae briefs in the US-Shrimp/Turtle dispute in 1998 stirred a debate among WTO Member States whether the dispute settlement procedure should be accessible for private individuals and entities. Developing countries firmly opposed the inclusion of amid curiae into the Disupute Settlement Understanding (DSU) and repeated their arguments frequently in cases leading to amicus submissions, fearing a further shift of power in favour of developed countries and changes in the nature of the dispute settlement system. The present article examines these concerns in light of the experience made with amicus submissions in 21 disputes. It will be argued that most of the fears expressed by developing countries are ungrounded and often base on wrong assumptions.

There are more than 50,000 international treaties, 600 of which cover multilateral trade issues. They help to create a secure legal environment that will attract investors and boost trade, laying the foundation for sustainable growth, jobs and income. Developing countries are facing problems, however, because there are hundreds of such multilateral treaties, with many more coming into being, and many organizations dealing with them. While it is important for countries to choose the right treaties from those already in place, they could also take part in developing the many treaties that are still being created. Until recently, the focus of international organizations has been on making trade rules, without really considering how easy -- or difficult -- it is for the rules to be applied ...
