Targeting aid at trade capacities in developing countries is a sensible way of boosting export potential. For beneficiary countries to fully gain from Aid for Trade, it must target their ability to produce goods not just for export but also for domestic consumption. This is a point consistently emphasized by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). By developing their productive capacities, countries can more effectively take advantage of the other elements of the Aid for Trade initiative, which may help them facilitate inputs to domestic industry and diversify their export markets. UNCTAD has also constantly highlighted the role of regional cooperation to develop markets and as a building block to international competitiveness.

As countries turn more to regionalism as a means of forwarding co-operation on trade rules and other areas of policymaking, governments are increasingly incorporating rules on investment into regional trade agreements (RTAs). The Asia-Pacific region is no exception, with many innovative agreements that include disciplines on investment protection and non-discrimination. We analyse the economic consequences of including investment provisions in trade agreements by creating an index of the extensiveness of investment provisions in RTAs and then using that index in a gravity model framework of trade and investment. The results indicate that investment provisions are positively associated with trade and, to an even greater extent, investment flows. Further, we observe an insignificant effec...

The global market for traded goods and services of the creative industries has enjoyed an unprecedented dynamism in recent years. Their global export value reached US$ 424.4 billion in 2005, accounting for 3.4% of world trade as compared with US$227.4 million in 1996 according to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. Exports of creative goods from developing economies accounted for 29% of world exports of such goods in 1996 and reached 41% in 2005, with China alone accounting for 19%. Asian economies accounted for more than three-quarters of total exports of creative goods, while in Latin America and the Caribbean, exports doubled from approximately US$ 3.5 billion to US$ 8.6 billion. The UN's report highlights that policies to encourage the development of creative ind...
