1. Introduction This paper provides overview of country specific features of Africa’s trade. This report will provide country-specific analyses of Africa’s trade (both export and import) in the form of a “Country Analytical Brief (CAB)” that examines changing patterns and the composition of export and import for individual African countries. CABs will also give an overview of trade institutions surrounding these countries and analyze their impact. CABs have been prepared for all the countries in Africa. Export and Import Matrices The novelty of CABs is found in the Export and Import Matrices constructed for individual 53 African countries. These Matrices show the patterns in and the composition of trade of African sub-regions and individual African countries. The Export (Import) Matrix is a matrix of the export (import) share of major export (import) product groups of the country. The grouping is based on the classification system “Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) Revision 2” at 1-digit level. Export (Import) share is the share of the export (import) value of specific products to specific trading partners as a percentage of the country’s total export (import) to the world. The trading partners in this matrix are the World, the rest of Africa (continent), Asia, the EU, and the US. Cells in the matrix contain the share figure, corresponding absolute export volume, and average annual changes in export (import) volume. Each cell is colored according to the level of share within the respective bilateral total export (import) (high/low) and to the level of annual change (high/low). The Export Matrix of Algeria is shown below as a sample. Notes to the Matrix shown below generally apply to all the Export and Import Matrices. Although base years used for analysis are 1990-1992 for the first period and 1999-2001 for the last period, data in those years are not available for several African countries even taken from trading partners’ side. In such cases, different years are chosen for analysis depending on data availability (See Appendix 3 for data availability and base-periods used for analysis).

compositions of Africa’s trade, Export and Import Matrices have been tabulated based on SITC (Rev. 2) 1-digit level data in the database. Major Export and Import to the EU, the US, and Asia In addition to SITC 1-digit level data, SITC 3-digit level data were also utilized to grasp details of export patterns on a more product-specific basis. Each CAB contains Charts of each country’s major export and import to three major trading partners, namely, the EU, the US and Asia. Products are listed in accordance with the ranks of their shares. Shares indicate the shares of individual products in that country’s total export towards a specific partner. For instance, in the case of Algeria, this country’s export of SITC 333 towards the EU accounts for a 43.5% of its total export towards the EU (See Table 2 in the CAB of Algeria). The lists do not contain products with less than 0.1% shares. WTO Accession and Preferential Trade Arrangements Each CAB contains a Table that shows that country’s WTO accession and Preferential Trade Arrangements. Acronyms used in the Tables indicate the following: Africa: CEMAC Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa

CMA Common Monetary Area COMESA Common Market for Eastern and Southern African States EAC East African Community ECCAS Economic Community of Central African States ECOWAS Economic Community of West African States SACU Southern African Customs Union SADC Southern African Development Community WAEMU West African Economic and Monetary Union

EU: Cotonou Cotonou Convention EBA Every Thing But Arms Initiative

US: AOGA African Growth and Opportunity Act AGOA* AGOA with its Apparel and Textile Benefits

Asia: Japan-LDC LDC Preferential Tariffs by Japan Others: EFTA European Free Trade Association Data on Basic Indicators, Domestic Production Structure, and Aid Dependency Each CAB also contains the information on basic indicators, domestic production structure, and aid dependency. The figures are based on the data from the World Development Indicators retrieved in 2003. Since the database is periodically updated, readers should note that the figures in the current CABs may not necessarily coincide with the figures retrieved today even for the same reporting year (i.e., 2001). 2. Notes on Trade Data As pointed out in previous studies on Africa’s trade, trade data reported by African countries to the UNCOMTRADE database as well as other official databases in the IMF, the World Bank, and other international organizations are not comprehensive because, among other reasons, many African countries have failed to consistently report their trade statistics. Because of this, for the purpose of maintaining data consistency, we utilized data reported by trading partners (See Appendix 1 for the list of partners.) for all the 53 African countries even though some African countries have been diligent enough to keep regular reporting.

In spite of the aforementioned constraints, this series of systematic and detailed analysis based on trade statistics will surely provide a fruitful basis for policy- and strategy-making in trade development. However, we believe that Africa can benefit from being more diligent in their efforts for data-reporting. Unfortunately, many African countries have failed to do routine reporting. In other words, Africa has been lagging behind other regions not only in trade promotion, but also in reporting reliable trade statistics. Therefore, it is imperative for African countries to strengthen their efforts in collecting, accumulating and reporting trade statistics. International donors should also assist African countries in this area as a part of trade-related capacity building. Comparing the figures in the Export and Import Matrices with the figures complied in other official statistics such as the IMF’s Direction of Trade (DOT) and International Financial Statistics (IFS), the WB’s World Development Indicators (WDI); you will likely find discrepancies among the corresponding figures ( See Appendix 2 and 3). In general, data discrepancies could occur because of the methodology: we used trading partners’ import data for African countries’ export and vice versa. In principle, countries report their export on an f.o.b. basis and their import on a c.i.f. basis. In utilizing trading partners’ data, however, we did not carry out .c.i.f. / f.o.b. adjustment; therefore, in theory, the figures in the Export Matrices could be higher than the figures reported by African countries to the UNCOMTRADE and other official statistics. On the other hand, the figures in the Import Matrices could be lower than the figures reported by African countries to these statistics. In addition to distortion caused by differences between f.o.b. and c.i.f., there are also other reasons for discrepancies and asymmetries of trade data between partner countries. (See Box 1) In addition, discrepancies can be seen between the figures in the Matrices and other official databases of trade data, and even between these databases. In theory, such discrepancies are inevitable because they apply different methodologies for data compilation. For instance, trade data stored in the IMF’s IFS are, in general, customs statistics reported by countries without particular processing. On the other hand, trade data stored in the IMF’s DOT are processed after being reported by individual countries in order to estimate realistic figures. Notwithstanding such differences of methodologies, however, margins of discrepancies between different databases are minimal as far as developed countries are concerned; developed countries are generally well-equipped with statistical capacity and manage to store and report consistent data to different international databases. In contrast, however, quite a few developing countries have failed to report consistent data to different statistical databases, primarily due to their institutional capacities of statistics. As already pointed out, more than a couple of countries have even failed reporting itself. Product-Specific Trade Data Although statistical discrepancies in international trade data can be adjusted to some extent at the aggregated level, product-specific trade statistics in some cases show rather wide discrepancies between export data and import data. In order to expand the coverage of our analysis, we have consistently used import data of African countries’ partners which tends to be more systematic and comprehensive. However, there are some cases where importing countries, for various reasons, do not report their import statistics of particular products from particular countries or report them differently from the way exporting countries report. Products which often involve this type of data inconsistency between exporting and importing countries include oil, gold and diamonds. Readers should be advised that the trade figures in CABs of African countries which export significant amount of such products may have been affected by such problems

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 105.2 Overview The GDP growth of Algeria has steadily been 2-3% since its decline in 1993. With the modest downward curve of its recent GDP growth, the proportion of exports of goods and services to the GDP has consistently been above 20%, climbing to a peak of 42.5% in 2000. Trade Structure Algeria’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was approximately US$15.6 billion as a result of an annual change of 2.47% while the country’s import have grown only slightly at 0.74% as a result of its import compression policy. Algeria’s major exports are mineral fuels (e.g., petroleum, gas) which accounts for about 95% of its total export to the world. None of the remaining product groups makes up more than 1% of the total export except chemicals and related products. On the other hand, the country’s imports vary. Machinery and transport equipment (e.g., telecommunication and electronic equipment, motor cars, etc.) is the highest share import group while food is also an important component of the country’s import. The EU is predominantly the largest trade partner of Algeria with its shares of Algeria’s total exports and imports accounting for 59.16% and 68.08% respectively; however, the EU’s share has slightly

declined in the past 10 years. On the other hand, Asia remains a minor trade partner. Algeria’s export and import to and from Asia account for only 2.52% and 8.46% respectively. Nevertheless, trade between Algeria and Asia is rapidly growing in both directions. Algeria’ high share, high growth export to Asia is petroleum while the country’s high share, high growth imports from Asia are manufactured items such as machinery and motor cars. Trade Regime Algeria has not gained WTO membership. As far as the issue of preferential trade arrangements is concerned, the EU has been the sole region with which a FTA treaty has been concluded so far. There does not appear to be any kind of preferential trade arrangements between Algeria and other African countries, or other OECD countries. This explains why export to the EU makes up 63.27% of Algeria’s total export to the world. As for its economic relations with Asian countries, China concluded an “Investment Protection Agreement” with it in 1996 and has invested approximately $1.9 million by 2000. Most of this is believed to be in mineral fuels, as revealed by the fact that China imported 210 thousand tons of LPG from Algeria valued at $59.6 million. This in part accounts for the extremely high growth of Algeria’s export of “gas, natural and manufactured” to Asia.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 138.3 Overview Angola is recovering from the aftermath of its two and half decades-long civil war. Its GDP growth has fluctuated at around 3%, after a sharp downturn in 1993 reflecting the outbreak of fighting in the recurrent civil war. Exports of goods and services have been contributing to the GDP at a high level of 70 to 90%. Trade Structure Angola’s total export value (1999-2001 average) is just under US$6.6 billion, having grown 6.77% annually compared to the 1990-1992 average. The country’s import has also increased at a moderate annual change of 1.91% to US$2.1 billion (1999-2001 average). Angola’s primary and dominant export product group is mineral fuels (e.g., crude oil) consisting of 90.09% of its entire export value. The second major export product group is material-based manufactured goods (e.g., diamonds). Every product group classification recorded growth in the past decade. Among Angola’s imports, machinery and transport equipment has registered the highest share and growth, reflecting reconstruction demands after the civil war. The major destination of Angola’s export is the US with a 48.73% share of the total export while

Angola’s import mainly relies on the EU with a 46.50 share of the total import. Asia has also emerged as an important trade partner of Angola. Angola’s export to Asia (mostly petroleum export) has rapidly increasing at more than 50% annually. Asia’s export to Angola has been also increasing at more than 10% annually. Angola’s major export to Asia is petroleum while its major import from Asia is machinery and transport equipment. Trade Regime Despite the membership of regional frameworks such as the SADC and COMESA arrangements, Angola’s intra-African export remains minimal. Japan’s preferential tariff arrangement towards LDCs is hardly significant to Angola, with its primary export being petroleum oils and crude. On the other hand, exports to the EU, a significant portion of which is diamonds, is receiving preferential treatment in the EU under the EBA arrangement when exported for processing. Based on the fact that FDI is actively flowing into Angola due to the economic reconstruction, future exports are expected to increase dramatically. Although current data shows that Angola’s export is totally primary commodity driven, it is presumed that non-traditional products will begin to account for larger portion in the future.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 133.6 Overview Benin’s GDP has grown at an annual rate of about 5% on average over the last decade and exports have been an important factor in its growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been about 15%. Trade Structure Benin’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$232million, having grown at an average annual change of 8.25% from 1990-1992. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$1.1 billion, having grown at 11.53%. Benin’s major export product group is non-oil crude materials (e.g., cotton, oil seed) which accounts for 69.34% of the country’s total export. Benin’s second-highest share (11.07%) export product group is food and live animals, which have been growing at an annual change of 20.40%. On the import side, Benin acquires food and consumables (products under SITC Groups 0, 5, 6 and 7) in large amounts. Import of these products has been increasing in recent years. Benin exports its products in multiple directions. South Africa (e.g., Brazil) and Asia (e.g., Indonesia) are as important export markets as the

EU and Africa. In Benin’s export, Asia’s share account for approximately 34.49 % of the total. On the import side, the EU and Asia are two major trading partners for Benin. While the EU evenly exports a wide range of products from food, beverages, chemicals to manufacture, Asia’s exports are mainly manufactures such as fabrics and electrical machinery. Trade Regime Benin is a WTO member. As for its economic relations with African countries, Benin is a member of the ECOWAS and the WAEMU, which have been created for strengthening economic ties among Western African countries. Benin’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties. Although Benin is granted preferential treatments by the EU under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA, such treatments do not seem to have contributed to increasing Benin’s EU-destined exports. Neither the US AOGA has shown any tangible effects for boosting Benin’s export to the US. In the same manner, Japan’s preferential treatments have not caused tangible increase in Benin’s export.

Overview Botswana’s economy has consistently displayed rapid growth for the past decade, except for a sharp slowdown in the early 1990s. Export has meant much to Botswana’s economic performance as the ratio of exports of goods and services to the GDP has averaged about 50%. Trade Structure The value of Botswana’s total export in 2001 was about US$1.7 billion, having grown 142.54% from 2000. On the other hand, the Import Matrix does not seem to reflect reality of Botswana’s import. Although the Import Matrix indicates that Botswana’s total import value was only US$247 million in 2001, other official statistics such as the IMF’s financial statistics and the World Bank’s development indicators report higher values of US$1.8-2.1 billion. It seems that this underestimation of Botswana’s import value in the Import Matrix has been caused by insufficient reporting of Botswana-destined exports by South Africa, which is the dominant source of Botswana’s import. Botswana’s major export is diamonds, whose transactions are presumed to be reported under SITC 9 instead of SITC 6 under which diamonds are classified. In fact, it is reported by other sources that more than 80% of Botswana’s

export income relies on diamonds. In the meantime, Botswana is heavily dependent on outside sources, South Africa in particular, for almost of all its consumables; however, Benin’s import dependence on South Africa is not properly reflected in the Import Matrix for the same reason as mentioned above. Botswana’s export is predominately destined for the EU, particularly the UK. Close to 90% of Botswana’s total export is sent to the EU. The US and Asia account for minuscule shares of Botswana’s export. Trade Regime Because Botswana is a middle income country, it is not eligible for LDC preferential tariffs extended by developed countries. However, Botswana has been granted preferential treatment for its key exports under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention; thus, it is assumed that such measures by the EU have affected the high weighting of EU-bound exports for Botswana. Botswana has been an AGOA country since 2000 and eligible for its apparel and textile benefits since 2001. Because of the recentness of the AGOA initiative, there has been no noticeable correlation between the country’s AGOA eligibility and its trade with the US.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 223.7 Overview Burkina Faso’s GDP has grown at an average annual rate of about 4.5% over the past decade and exports have been a relatively important factor in its growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has averaged above 10%. Trade Structure Burkina Faso’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was about US$167 million as a result of annual change of 1.22% since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$351million, having grown at 2.35%. Burkina Faso’s leading export product is cotton which accounts for more than half of the country’s total export; however, the drop of its international prices and other factors have caused stagnation of the country’s cotton export revenue. On the other hand, Burkina Faso’s import products are diverse. The country imports food, chemicals, and capital goods to consumables. Among them, manufactures categorized under SITC 6 and 7 are imported in relatively large amounts. Burkina Faso’s export destinations are well-diversified. Above all, the EU and Asia

show high presence as Burkina Faso’s export markets. In Asia, Indonesia is a vigorous importer of Burkina Faso’s cotton. On the other hand, the country’s export to the US remains minimal. Presumably, the US policy to subsidize its cotton farms has blocked Burkina Faso’s access to the US cotton market. On the import side, the EU is a predominant trading partner for Burkina Faso. The EU supplies a wide range of products to the country. Trade Regime Burkina Faso has not gained WTO membership. In relation to the US, it is not AGOA eligible, which also could explain the small share of its export directed to the US. The EU's relatively high-share in Burkina Faso’s total export could be attributed to its preferential treatments extended under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA. However, these treatments do not seem to be effective in further boosting Burkina Faso’s export. As for its economic relations with African countries, the ECOWAS and WAEMU have created relatively strong economic ties among Western African countries. Burkina Faso’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 1122.1 Overview Burundi’s economy had hard times in the mid 1990s. Burundi’s GDP fluctuated between -8% and 5% over the last decade and its exports have not significantly contributed to its growth. The ratio of export of goods and services to GDP has been between 6% and 12%. There has been little FDI contribution to GDP. Trade Structure Burundi’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$48 million, having declined by -8.58% annually from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was about US$73 million, having also declined by -7.83% annually over the same period. Burundi’s largest-share export items are coffee and tea. The Export Matrix shows that export of food and live animals account for more than 80% of the country’s total export, almost all of which are coffee and tea export. Burundi’s export value in this category, however, decreased from the early to the late 1990s because of declining international prices of coffee and tea. On the other side, Burundi’s main import items include manufactured items and chemical products.

The EU is predominantly the largest trading partner for Burundi both in terms of export and import. However, EU-destined export has been rapidly declining. In the same manner, the EU’s share has been decreasing in Burundi’s total import. On the other hand, the country’s Asia-destined export has been growing at a high pace. In particular, coffee and tea export has been increasing towards Asia contrary to the EU and the US. Trade Regime Burundi is a WTO member. This country is also a member of the COMESA and ECCAS, economic cooperation frameworks in the region, but these regional frameworks do not seem to be effective in promoting Burundi’s intra-African trade. As far as preferential treatments are concerned, Burundi has been granted preferential accesses to the EU market under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative; however, these preferential measures do not seem to be contributing to further increasing Burundi’s export towards the EU. In relation to the US, Burundi has not received AGOA benefits because of concerns related to economic reform, rule of law, and labor and human rights.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 180.7 Overview Having reached about -4.0% in 1991, Cameroon’s GDP growth rate increased considerably and since 1995 has remained steady at around 4%. It reached 5.30% in 2001. Exports have been important for its growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 15% and reached 31.84% in 2001. Trade Structure Cameroon’s 1999-2001 average total export was valued at US$2.2 billion with a moderate increase of 1.92% per annum from the early 1990s. The country’s import has also mildly grown at an annual change of 1.78%. Cameroon’s major export products are mineral fuels (e.g., petroleum) and non-oil crude materials (e.g., timber, cotton) which respectively account for 44.31% and 28.74% of its total export. Food (e.g., cocoa, coffee, bananas) also occupies high shares of 18.95%. In the meantime, Cameroon imports various kinds of products. Among others, machinery and transport equipment (e.g., vehicles) is the highest share product group with a 32.70% share of the country’s total import.

The EU is the dominant trading partner of Cameroon as the country’s export to and import from the EU account for 71.36% and 67.26% respectively. In terms of export, Asia is the second largest destination with a share of 18.97%, and such export has also been growing at 20.48% per annum. On the other hand, Cameroon’s import from Asia accounts for a moderate share of 7.27%, having slightly declined at -0.84 annually. Trade Regime Cameroon is a WTO member. As for its economic relations with African countries, the ECCAS and the CEMAC have created economic ties among Western African countries; Cameroon’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties, although they do not seem to be very strong. Cameroon has been extended preferential treatments by the EU (Cotonou Agreement, formerly Lome Convention) and the US (AGOA). Cameroon’s strong trade ties with the EU could be explained by such preferential treatments; however, there has not been seen any tangible effects of the introduction of the AGOA by the US.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 91.0 Overview Although Cape Verde’s GDP has grown at an average annual rate of more than 5% over the past decade, it achieved only 3.3% growth in 2001. Exports have been an important factor in its growth, and their importance has been increasing in recent years. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has been consistently above 10%, and reached 25.82% in 2001. Trade Structure Cape Verde’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$19 million, having grown at 8.46% annually from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$248million, having grown at 7.55%. Cape Verde’s high-share export product group is machinery and transport equipments (e.g., engines & motors, electric machinery), which accounts for a share of 31.19% and registered a high average annual change of 13.38%. Cape Verde’s second-highest share (27.09 %) export product group is material-based manufactured goods (e.g., leather products), which have also grown rapidly in the past decade. Cape Verde’s economy relies heavily on imports. The country’s imports vary from food, beverages,

minerals, chemicals, capital goods, consumables, etc. The EU is predominantly the largest trading partner in both export and import, with its share accounting for 82.28% and 88.45% respectively. The share of export to Asia accounts for only 3.83% of Cape Verde’s total export. Asia’s share is also minimal in the country’s import. Trade Regime Cape Verde has not gained WTO membership. On the other hand, the country is a member of the ECOWAS, a regional economic framework in Western Africa; however, it has not contributed to increasing Cape Verde’s trade in the region. In relation to outside Africa, Cape Verde has been granted LDC preferential treatments by developed countries such the US, the EU and Japan. It is also granted preferential access to the EU and US markets under the EBA and the AGOA. Among them, the EU’s preferential treatments seem to have facilitated Cape Verde’s export. In addition, the former colonial relationship with Portugal has led to Cape Verde’s high economic dependence on this former suzerain. On the other hand, in spite of Cape Verde’s eligibility for the AGOA preferential treatments, there has not been a sigh of increase in the country’s export to the US.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 481.5 Overview The Central African Republic (CAR)’s GDP has varied over the past decade and declined steadily in recent years. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has varied between 11% and 13% from 1999 to 2001. It seems that the Central African Republic has not received substantial foreign direct investment recently. Trade Structure The CAR’s total amount of export to the world in the period of 1999-2001 was valued at US$206 million, as a consequence of an annualized increase of 5.64% since the early 1990s. On the other hand, the country’s import has declined at -5.59% per annum to US$72 million. The CAR’s major export product groups are material-based manufactured goods (mostly diamonds) and non-oil crude materials (e.g., timber, cotton). The country imports various products, of which machinery and transport equipment (e.g., electric machines, vehicles, etc.) accounts for the highest share of 37.24% in 1999-2001. The CAR’s trade is predominantly dependent on the EU in both directions; the CAR’s export to and from the EU account for 90.25% and

82.15% respectively. In particular, diamonds export towards Belgium stands out in share. Among the other trade partners, Asia has accounted for relatively higher shares although they are far less than those of the EU. Asia’s major import from the CAR is cotton while Asia mainly exports auto-related products to the country. Trade Regime The CAR is a WTO member. The country has also been granted LDC preferential treatments as well as other preferential accesses by developed countries such as the EU, the US and Japan. It seems that the major global markets are open to the country’s relatively competitive export goods mentioned above. In particular, the EU’s preferential treatments seem to have contributed to increasing the CAR’s export. On the other hand, despite the CAR’s eligibility for the AGOA, its overall trade with the US remains very low. It is reported that AGOA exports totaled US$192,000 in 2002, consisting entirely of jewelry and jewelry parts. It is also reported that AGOA exports account for only around 10% of the CAR’s total exports to the US as of 2002.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 213.1 Overview Having bottomed out at around -15% in 1993, Chad’s GDP growth rate recovered and achieved 8.50% in 2001. Exports have been important for growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 10%, most recently amounting to 14.25% in 2001. Trade Structure Chad’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was about US$88 million, having slightly declined at an average annual change of -0.79% from the early 1990s. In terms of absolute volume, however, Chad’s exports is said to have increased since the devaluation of the CFA franc in 1994. In the meantime, Chad’s import has steadily increased at an annual change of 3.06%. Chad’s leading export product group is non-oil crude materials (e.g., cotton), which accounts for an overwhelming share of 94.22% of total exports, but declined at annual rate of -0.69%. On the other hand, Chad mainly imports manufactures. In terms of both export and import, the EU is the largest trading partner of Chad. The majority of Chad’s cotton export goes to the EU while the

EU provides Chad with a wide range of products, mainly manufactures. Although the US is not an active importer of Chad’s products, its export to Chad has been increasing fast in recent years. This could be explained by the increasing demand of Chad for engineering upon the start of the Chad-Cameroon Pipeline project in 2000. Asia has been exporting cotton in certain amount from Chad; however, Chad’s cotton export to Asia has been decreasing at an annual change of -9.43% in the past decade. In terms of import, Asia accounts for a small share of 4.67% of Chad’s overall import, Trade Regime Chad is a WTO member. In relation to its economic relations with African countries, the ECCAS and the CEMAC have created economic ties among Central African countries. Chad’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties, although they do not seem to be very strong. The EU’s leading share in Chad’s total exports may be attributed to benefits arising from preferential treatment granted under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative.

Overview Comoros’s GDP has recovered drastically since the beginning of the 1990’s. GDP growth has been consistently positive although it once dropped to -1.13% in 2000. Comoros’ exports of goods and services are increasingly contributing to GDP, accounting for 13% to 16% at the end of the 1990’s and the beginning of the 2000’s. Trade Structure Comoros’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was about US$28 million with almost no growth in the past decade. In the meantime, Comoros’s 1999-2001 average total import value was 171million, having grown at 5.76% in the past decade. Comoros’s highest-share export product group to the world is food and live animals (e.g. vanilla,), accounting for 68.07% of the total export. The second highest one is chemical products (e.g. clove oils) accounting for 14.68%. In addition, machinery and transport equipment (e.g., electric appliance and parts) accounts for 11.78% share with rapid growth with an average annual change of 22.93%. On the import side, Comoros acquires a wide range of products from meat,

milk, telecom equipment to motor cars from overseas. The EU is a predominant trading partner for Comoros. More than half of the country’s total export goes to the EU while close to 80% of the country’s total import originates there. Among the remaining trading partner, Asia has grown to be an important export market for Comoros. Asia-destined export has grown at 24.84% per annum and now accounts for 20.10% of the country’s total export Trade Regime Comoros has been granted preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA by the EU. Such treatments as well as former colonial ties with France could explain Comoros’s high dependence on the EU for its trade. Comoros is a member of the COMESA, a regional economic framework among Eastern and Southern African countries; however, it does not seem to have played a significant role in promoting the country’s export.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 190.9 Overview The GDP growth of the Congo Republic has been fluctuating wildly throughout the 1990s, which plunged from a peak of more than 5% in 1995 to a valley of -3% in 1999, and then recovered to a level of 3% in 2001. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has been steadily above 40% and has been trending upwards, reaching a height of 84.22% in 2001.

Trade Structure The Congo Republic’s total exports to the world on the 1999-2001 average was valued at US$2.5 billion, having increased at an average annual change of 7.37% from 1990-1992. In the meantime, the country’s total import value has mildly increased at 1.18% per annum although actual import flows in the above period have fluctuated considerably depending on investment in the country’s petroleum industry. The Congo Republic’s major exports are mineral fuels (e.g., crude oil) which account for an 87.86% share of the total exports, having rapidly increased at 10.57% annually. Higher oil price and rising oil production in 1999-2000 seem to have contributed to this rapid increase. On the other side, the Congo Republic imports various products, of which machinery and equipment (e.g., petroleum plants and parts, vehicles)

accounts for the highest share, followed by food (e.g., wheat, meat). The largest export market for the Congo Republic is Asia, mainly Taiwan, South Korea and China, accounting for about 60% of the country’s total export. More than 90% of Asia-destined export is petroleum. On the import side, the Congo Republic is largely dependent on the EU although the EU’s share has been declining. In contrast, the Congo Republic’s import from Asia has increased at 6.95% per annum, accounting for about 18% of the country’s total import in 1999-2001. Trade Regime The Congo Republic has regional economic ties as a member of the CEMAC and ECCAS. It is reported that the country has more intra-African trade than reflected in official data. The Cotonou agreement, formerly the Lome convention, with the EU does not seem to have contributed to increasing the Congo Republic’s export. As far as the US is concerned, it is reported that the country’s duty-free exports to the US under AGOA were valued at $107 million in 2002, nearly all of which were energy-related.

Overview Côte d’Ivoire’s GDP grew at a rate of around 7 % in 1995, but since then its GDP growth rate has declined continuously. It reached -2.30% in 2000 and -0.9% in 2001. Exports have been important for its growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has averaged above 30%, reaching 39.35%in 2001. Trade Structure Côte d’Ivoire’s 1999-2001 average total export was valued at about US$3.4 billion, having increased at an average annual change of 2.67% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was about US$2.5 billion, having increased at an annualized change of 5.34%. Côte d’Ivoire’s highest share export product group is food and live animals (e.g., cocoa, coffee), accounting for a 67.36% share of its total export. The country’s export of cocoa and coffee increased in the 1990s thanks to the devaluation of the CFA franc in 1994 and improved international prices for them in the mid-1990s (though their prices dropped again towards the end of the 1990s). On the import side, Côte d’Ivoire is dependent on external sources for a wide variety of products ranging

from food, petroleum and chemicals, to machines and motor cars. The EU is Côte d’Ivoire’s largest trading partner accounting for 65.47% of its total export and 52.24% of its total import. Next to the EU, the US accounts for 11.44% share, followed by intra-African trade with 9.41%. Asia accounts for a moderate share of 7%. In terms of import, Africa comes next to the EU with 22.81%, followed by Asia with 12.77%. Trade Regime Côte d’Ivoire is a WTO member. As for its economic relations with African countries, the ECOWAS and WAEMU have created relatively strong economic ties among Western African countries; Côte d’Ivoire’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties. In relation to the EU, Côte d’Ivoire is granted preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention; the high share of the EU in this country’s export may be attributable to these treatments as well as to its former colonial ties with France. Côte d’Ivoire became qualified for the AGOA in 2002. Although the trade data here do not reflect AGOA effects, the US government sees significant scope for an expansion of AGOA-related exports in the years to come.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 1029.1 Overview The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has experienced negative GDP growth throughout the 1990s. This reflects that the country has been experiencing political turmoil since 1990 and civil war since 1998. According to recent data, GDP growth has remained between -4% to -6% for the three consecutive years between 1999 and 2001. Export volume has been contributing to GDP at around 10 to 30% for the last decade, while the ratio of exports to GDP has been declining gradually since 1997. Trade Structure The 1999-2001 average export value of the DRC to the world was about US$1.19 billion, declining -3.69% annually from the 1990-1992 average. In the same manner, the DRC’s import has declined -7.05% per annum in 1990-2001. The DRC’s highest-share export group is material-based manufactured goods (mostly diamonds followed by copper and cobalt) with an about 70% share of the total. Mineral fuels (e.g., crude oil) are the second highest. However, both of these high-share export product groups have shrunk in export value in 1990-2001. The DRC’s imports vary from consumables to capital goods. Among others, food (e.g., wheat,

meat, etc.) and machinery and equipment (e.g., vehicles) are the high share import product groups. The DRC has its export oriented mainly towards the EU, which accounts for 77.39% of the country’s total export. In the EU, Belgium, the former suzerain, is the dominant trading partner, accepting most of diamonds export from the DRC. The US is also an important export destination of the DRC’s products, mainly petroleum. On the import side, the DRC is also dependent on the EU, mainly Belgium, but South Africa and Nigeria are also major sources of the DRC’s import. Furthermore, the DRC’s dependence on Africa in its import has been increasing at 9.10% per annum in the past decade. Trade Regime The DRC is a member of the SADC and COMESA. Although the DRC’s intra-African export remains minimal, its dependence on Africa is increasing in terms of import. In the meantime, exports to the EU, a significant portion of which is diamonds, are receiving preferential treatment in the EU under the EBA arrangement, when exported to Belgium for processing.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) N/A Overview Although Djibouti experienced hard economic times in the mid 1990s, it has been recovering since the end of the 1990’s with GDP growth rates of around 1 to 2% (2.18% in 1999, 0.73% in 2000 and 1.59% in 2001). The export of goods and services accounted for 47% and 45% of GDP in 1999 and 2000, respectively, indicating that exports playing a very important role in Djibouti’s economic development. Trade Structure Djibouti’s trade statistics can be misleading because the country’s trade data include many re-exports. Djibouti’s port is used as a relay point for exports from and to African countries such as Somalia and Ethiopia. According to the Matrix tabulated on the basis of the UNCOMTRADE data, Djibouti’s1999-2001 total export was valued at US$10 million, having slowly increased by 1.46% annually from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 total import was valued at US$358 million, having slowly increased by 1.96% annually over the same period. The trade data shows that Djibouti’s highest-share export product group is non-oil crude minerals (e.g., hides and skins) with a

27.93% share. In reality, hides and skins are major exports by Djibouti itself. According to the import statistics, Djibouti imports a wide range of products, many of which are re-exported to the surrounding countries. Djibouti itself is also highly dependent on imports for consumables. The EU is the largest trading partner for Djibouti. Above all, France, the country’s former suzerain, is the major exporter as well as importer in the EU. Next to the EU, Asia accounts for the second-highest shares both in export and import. On the other hand, Djibouti’s trade with the US has remained minimal both in terms of export and import. Trade Regime Djibouti is a WTO member. The country’s WTO membership is essential for the country’s status as a trade intermediary state. In addition, preferential treatments extended by the EU seem to have facilitated EU-destined export. The COMESA has created relatively strong economic ties among Eastern and Southern African countries. In fact, it is reported that Djibouti’s re-export transactions with the surrounding countries are abundant; however, intra-Africa trade data have not been sufficiently reported to the UNCOMTRAD database.

In particular, it achieved over 6% annual growth in 1999. Its annual economic growth, however, has been deteriorating somewhat, registering only 3.3% in 2001. Its exports of goods and services have been increasing from 15% to 18% of GDP over the past three years. Gross foreign direct investment has also increased from 1.24% to 1.29% from 1999 to 2000. Trade Structure Egypt’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$5.16 billion, having grown at an annual change of 1.71% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was about US$16.0 billion, having grown at an annual change of 4.65% over the same period. Egypt’s major export product group is mineral fuels (e.g. petroleum and related products) accounting for 39.03% of the total export as a result of an annual decrease of -3.35%. The second-highest share export group is manufactured goods (e.g., garments), accounting for a 17.25% share with an average annual change of 3.69%. On the import side, Egypt is

dependent on external resources for various kinds of products. Among others, the country’s major import product group is machinery and transport equipment (e.g., telecom equipment, machinery, motorcars) accounting for 39.04% of total exports. Egypt’s major trading partner is the EU both in terms of import and export. Although not as large as the EU, the US and Asia also have grown to be important export markets as well as import sources for Egypt. Trade Regime Egypt is a WTO member. The country is also a member of the COMESA, but its intra-African trade has remained minimal. Furthermore, Egypt has had a Free Trade Agreement with the EU since the late 1970s, which seem to have led to their strong economic ties between the two parties. In addition to these trade arrangements, Egypt’s export has been facilitated by the country’s export incentive policies. For instance, Egypt’s exports by the free zone areas have averaged over US$700 million for the period of 1999 to 2000. Moreover, another export category, which is the export under the temporary admission and duty draw-back systems, has registered US$720 million.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 5.1 Overview Equatorial Guinea’s GDP started to grow briskly after the country began oil production in 1992. In particular, the GDP grew sharply in 1997, to 1.7 times as much as the year before. Since then GDP growth has slowed down and reached 1.35% in 2001. Export of goods and services is contributing significantly to Equatorial Guinea’s GDP, though current data is not available. Trade Structure The 1999-2001 average export value of Equatorial Guinea is US$1.2 billion, having grown rapidly at 45.73% annually from 1990-1992, boosted by sharp increase in petroleum export. Export of mineral fuels (e.g., crude oil) accounts for a share of 85.94% of the country’s entire export. The second major export is non-oil crude materials (e.g., timber) accounting for 8.29%. Export in the forestry sector has increased with the help of the 1994 devaluation of the CFA franc. In the meantime, Equatorial Guinea’s import has increased at a high pace of 18.08% per annum. This import growth has mainly been prompted by capital demands from the oil sector. The country’s import has also increased rapidly in other sectors such as food and chemicals.

The structural character of Equatorial Guinea’s export is that its major products, petroleum and related products are exported to various destinations, i.e. the EU, the US and Asia, while the second major export group, non-oil crude materials (e.g., wood) is oriented mainly towards Asia. This portion of the export to Asia is growing rapidly. On the import side, the EU and the US are the major sources of Equatorial Guinea’s import. Furthermore, the country’s import values from these two partners have been rapidly increasing. On the other side, Asia only accounts for a 4.11% share of the country’s entire import. Trade Regime Equatorial Guinea is not a WTO member although it is given an observer status. The EU has granted preferential treatments to Equatorial Guinea under the Cotonou agreement, formerly the Lome convention, and the EBA initiative. These treatments seem to have contributed to both high shares and diversity of its EU-destined export. The membership of regional arrangements such as the ECCAS and the CEMAC do not seem to have promoted Equatorial Guinea’s intra-African trade.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 57.5 Overview Eritrea’s GDP growth has fluctuated between -12% and 11% over the past decade. Its exports of goods and services dropped to a low point of 9% in 1999, but rose again to 21% in 2001. Trade Structure According to the Export Matrix tabulated on the basis of the UNCOMTRADE data, the 1999-2001 average export value of Eritrea was about US$11.9 million, having grown at 29.21% annually; however, this total export value is presumed to be much less than the actual value because Eritrea’s export data with regard to African countries such as Ethiopia and Sudan, Eritrea’s major export markets, have not been reported sufficiently, and accordingly not reflected in the Matrix. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average import was valued at US$153, having increased at 17.69% annually. Eritrea’s major exports include food and live animals (e.g., salt, livestock, hides and skins), material-based manufactures (e.g., semi-processed leather). Minerals such as gold are also important export items. In recent years, export of machinery and transport equipment (e.g., electric machinery) has been increasing. On the import side, Eritrea obtains various

products from food, fertilizers to machines from overseas. Eritrea’s major export markets are its surrounding African countries such as Sudan and Ethiopia although this fact is not properly reflected in the Matrix. Except Africa, the EU is the dominant export market. The EU is also Eritrea’s major source of imports, providing various products such as wheat, motor vehicles, telecom equipment, and civil engineering goods. As far as Asia is concerned, export of manufactured items has been rapidly increasing. Trade Regime Eritrea is not a member of the WTO, but it is a member of the COMESA, a regional economic framework covering Eastern and Southern Africa. Eritrea has also been granted major preferential trade treatments by the world’s major markets. The EU’s preferential treatments towards Eritrea under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention and the EBA seem to have contributed to Eritrea’s export growth. In regard to the US, Eritrea’s AGOA exports in 2002 are reported to be negligible. No new US investment is reported, either. The Eritrean government has declined to pursue its pending application for textile and apparel benefits under the AGOA.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 295.5 Overview Looking at the basic economic indicators, Ethiopia experienced hard economic times at the beginning of the 1990’s, and then recovered. Its GDP growth rate has fluctuated between 5% and 15% since the end of the recession. Total exports of goods and services amount to 14-15% of GDP. Trade Structure Ethiopia’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was US$367 million, having grown at 5.25% annually since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$887 million, having grown at 0.29% annually since the early 1990s. Ethiopia’s dominant export product group is food and live animals (mostly coffee) which accounts for 65.57% of the total export with an annual change of 6.75%. The second major export product group is non-oil crude materials (e.g., hide and skins, oil seeds, etc.), accounting for 17.87% of the total export. On the other hand, Ethiopia imports various products such as wheat, motor vehicles, capital goods, etc. The EU is the leading export market as well as supplier for Ethiopia. Coffee is the leading product group exported to the EU, followed by

leather. In the meantime, the EU supplies a wide range of products to Ethiopia. Next to the EU, Asia is the second largest trading partner for Ethiopia. The country’s exports to Asia accounts for more than 20% of the country’s total export and has been growing fast at 5.29% annually. In particular, Japan imports Ethiopia’s coffee in large amounts. On the other hand, Ethiopia’s imports from Asia include automotive-related goods such as iron and steel products, motor vehicles, rubber tires. Trade Regime Ethiopia is not a member of the WTO, but it is a member of the COMESA, a regional economic framework covering Eastern and Southern Africa. Ethiopia has also been granted preferential trade treatments by the world’s major markets. It seems that the EU’s preferential treatments have contributed to increasing Ethiopia’s export towards Europe. In relation to Asia, Ethiopia’s coffee export has enjoyed preferential access to the Japanese markets. As far as the US is concerned, it is reported by the US government that Ethiopia’s duty-free exports under the AGOA more than doubled to US$2.3 million in 2002. One American firm has also begun exporting apparel to the US in the same year.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 101.9 Overview Gabon’s GDP has fluctuated over the last decade. In particular, it registered negative growth in 1999. Their export of goods and services accounts for a significant fraction of GDP, 45%, 37% and 60% in the years 1999-2001. Gross foreign direct investment (FDI) accounted for about 15% of GDP in 1999. Trade Structure Gabon’s 1999-2001 average total export to the world was valued at about US$3.1 billion as a result of an annual increase of 1.88% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, Gabon’s import has slightly declined at -0.85% to US$700 million in the same years. However, this total import value based on the UNCOMTRADE data is much lower than other figures reported by the World Bank and the IMF. It is assumed that this disparity exists because Gabon’s import from African countries is not sufficiently reported. Gabon’s dominant export product group is mineral fuels (e.g., crude oil) which accounts for 75.18% of the total exports. Non-oil crude materials (e.g., timber) come second with a share of 20.91% of the total. On the import side, machinery and equipment (e.g., telecom and mechanical equipment, vehicles) accounts for 41.86% of the total import. The country also

imports food (e.g., meat, milk) and chemicals in relatively large amounts. For Gabon, the US is the largest export market, importing crude oil in large amounts while US export to Gabon remains moderate. In contrast, the EU is the major source of Gabon’s import. The EU supplies various products to Gabon from food, medicines and alcohols to vehicles and machines. Among the remaining partner groups, Asia-destined export from Gabon accounts for a relatively high share of 16.93%, and it is also growing the most rapidly at 10.38% per annum. Trade Regime Gabon has been granted preferential trade treatments by major trading partners, and it is a member of the WTO. Although the EU’s preferential treatments do not seem to have contributed to increasing Gabon’s export, the country’s former colonial relationship with France is reflected in its high import dependence on the EU. It is reported Gabon’s duty-free exports to the US under AGOA were valued at US$1,146 billion in 2001, almost all of which were oil or energy-related products. These exports represent 71% of Gabon’s total exports to the US. No AGOA-related foreign investment was reported.

Overview The Gambia’s GDP grew at a rate of 1% in 1995, but since 1995 its GDP growth rate improved markedly, reaching 6% in 2001. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 40 % , and reached 54.42% in 2001 reflecting extensive re-export activities of the country. Trade Structure The Gambia’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was about US$54.5 million, having declined at an average annual change of 12.31% since the early 1990s. Its 1999-2001 import value was US$284.3million, having grown at 2.85%. These statistics, however, could be misleading because they may include re-export activities, which are a cornerstone of The Gambian economy. The Gambia’s own export is dominated by groundnuts. On the other hand, material-based manufactured goods (e.g., diamonds) are exported by way of The Gambia in large quantities. According to the Matrix, the country’s export of this product group (SITC 6) accounts for 46.46% of the total export. On the other hand, The Gambia’s import is diverse, reflecting its limited resource and production capacity.

According to the Matrices, the EU is the largest trading partner of The Gambia. In particular, the EU’s share in the country’s export stands out with a 71.21% share. Next to the EU Asia comes second with a 19.13% in export and a 35.63% share in import. The Gambia’s intra-African trade transactions related to re-export activities do not seem to be sufficiently reflected in the Matrix due to inadequacy of data reported to the UNCOMTRADE database. Trade Regime The Gambia is a WTO member. As for its economic relations with African countries, the ECOWAS has created strong economic ties among Western African countries. In fact, The Gambia is an important re-export hub in the western tip of the African continent. It has been reported that The Gambia supplies foreign items to its surrounding countries such as Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mali and Senegal. The EU’s preferential treatments may have contributed to its high share in The Gambia’s export; however, these treatments do not seem to be effective for increasing the country’s export. The Gambia became qualified for the US AGOA in January, 2003; however, the US government reports that there is little scope for any rapid expansion of the country’s US-destined export.

Overview Ghana’s GDP has grown at an annual rate of around 4% on average in recent years. Exports have been very important for growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP was around 15% in 1991 and reached 52.24% in 2001. Trade Structure Ghana’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$1.4 billion, having grown at an average annual change of 2.76% since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s total import was valued at about US$2.1 billion, having grown at 6.97% annually. Ghana’s major exports are gold (SITC 9), cocoa (SITC 0), and timber (SITC 2). Gold export now accounts for about one-third of the country’s total exports although this fact is not accurately reflected in the Matrix. Recently growing products include fish products, pineapples and aluminum, which have contributed to the diversification of Ghana’s export. On the other hand, Ghana imports a wide range of products from commodities to fuels and capital goods. The EU is the largest trading partner for Ghana with its shares accounting for 63.41% in Ghana’s total export and 47.06% in its total

import. Among the EU countries, the UK, the Netherlands and Germany are major trading partners for Ghana. Next to the EU, the US comes second in export and Asia in import. In import, Asia and Africa also account for relatively high shares of 11.53% and 15.86%. Among African countries, Nigeria is a major source of Ghana’s oil import. Trade Regime Ghana is a WTO member. As for its economic relations with African countries, the ECOWAS has created relatively strong economic ties among Western African countries, mainly Nigeria and Côte d’Ivoire. Ghana’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties. In relation to other trading partners, the EU’s preferential treatments seem to have contributed to its high share in Ghana’s export; however, growth of EU-destined export remains minimal in recent years despite these preferential treatments. Ghana became qualified for the AGOA in 2000 and its apparel and textile benefits in 2002. The US government reports that Ghana’s US-destined export eligible under AGOA amounted to US$43 million in 2001 and US$34.8 million in 2002 and consisted mostly of 'energy-related' products.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 202.8 Overview Guinea’s GDP grew at a rate of less than 1% in 1991, but since then its GDP growth rate increased considerably. Guinea’s GDP has grown at an annual rate of 3-4% on average in recent years, reaching 3.56% in 2001. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 20%, reaching 27.79%in 2001. Trade Structure Guinea’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$745 million, having slowly increased at an average annual change of 1.86% since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$567 million, having grown at 6.97% per annum. Guinea’s leading export product group is non-oil crude materials (e.g., bauxite, aluminum), accounting for 60.91% of the total export. Material-based manufactures (mostly diamonds) are also important exports, accounting for 20.25% of the total export. Export of gold (SITC 971), another primary export, is not properly reflected in the Export Matrix. On the import side, Guinea imports a wide variety of goods from food and tobacco to textiles and machines.

The EU is predominantly the largest trading partner for Guinea with its shares accounting for 60.91% in the country’s total export and 57.04% in its total import. In terms of export, the US comes second to the EU, accounting for 16.08%. On the other hand, Guinea’s import from Asia accounts for the second highest share of 19.86%. In addition, the country’s import from Asia has grown rapidly in the past decade. Trade Regime Guinea is a WTO member. As for its economic relations with African countries, the ECOWAS have created relatively strong economic ties among Western African countries, especially Côte d’Ivoire. Guinea’s transaction with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties. Guinea has been granted preferential treatments by major developed countries. In particular, the EU’s preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative seem to have contributed to the high share of exports directed towards the EU. As far as the US is concerned, Guinea became qualified for the AGOA in 2000; however, the US government reports that no AGOA trade has been reported.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 747.1 Overview After 1993 Guinea Bissau’s GDP growth rate increased steadily, reaching 7.50% in 1999. After 1999 it began to decline and Guinea Bissau’s GDP growth rate was only 0.2% in 2001. Exports have become increasingly important for growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has increased continually, reaching 31.76% in 2000 and 40.71% in 2001. Trade Structure Guinea Bissau’s 1999-2001 average total export value was US$93 million, having grown at an annual change of 15.12% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$73 million, having declined at -2.85%. Guinea Bissau’s major exports are cashew nuts and fish (SITC 1). Although the Export Matrix indicates that Guinea Bissau’s highest-share export group is mineral fuel because some countries reported they imported oil from the country, these may be reporting errors since the country is not currently exporting oil. Certainly, some petroleum companies have started business in the country, but there is no clear idea of the oil potential yet.

On the import side, Guinea Bissau is dependent on external resources for various products ranging from food and beverages to garments and machinery. Above all, manufactures imports account for high shares. A feature of Guinea Bissau’s Export Structure is that exports to Asia account for the highest share. Among Asian countries, India is the dominant importer of Guinea Bissau’s products. On the other hand, the EU is the largest supplier of Guinea Bissau’s imports, followed by Asia and Africa. In particular, Portugal, Guinea Bissau’s former suzerain, remains to be the largest source of this country’s imports. Trade Regime Guinea Bissau is a WTO member. Regarding its economic relations with African countries, the economic ties created by ECOWAS and the WAEMU do not seem to be very strong. Guinea Bissau has been granted preferential treatments by the EU under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative; however, the country’s EU-destined exports accounts for a low share. In relation to the US, Guinea Bissau became qualified for the AGOA in 2000; however, the US government reports that there was no AGOA-related trade in 2002.

Overview Looking at the basic economic indicators, Kenya’s economy experienced hard times in 1993. Its GDP growth rate fluctuated from about 0% to 4% over the last decade. Its exports have contributed significantly to its growth. About a quarter of GDP is attributable to the export of goods and services. Trade Structure According to the Export Matrix, Kenya’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$1.3 billion, having grown by 2.25%; however, this total export value is presumed to be much smaller than the actual figure as Kenya’s export data with regard to its neighbors in Africa, the country’s major export markets, are not reflected in the Matrix because of insufficient reporting by those countries. In the meantime, Kenya’s 1999-2001 average total import value from the world was about US$2.2 billion, having grown by 3.46%. Kenya’s highest-share export group is food and live animals (e.g., coffee, tea), accounting for 63.15% of the total. The second-highest share group (18.62 %) is non-oil crude materials (e.g., cut flowers). On the import side, the highest-share group is machinery and transport equipment (e.g., motorcars), accounting for

42.16%. Chemicals (SITC 5) and material-based manufactures (SITC6) also account for high shares. Kenya’s major export markets are Africa and the EU although the Export Matrix does not properly reflect Africa’s real share. Among the other partners, Asia has been growing fast. In terms of import, while the EU remains the largest, Kenya’s import from Asia now accounts for close to a 30% share. Trade Regime Kenya is a member of the WTO. It is also a member of the COMESA and the EAC. These economic frameworks seem to have helped promote Kenya’s intra-African trade. Kenya has also been extended preferential treatments by its trading partners. Among others, the EU’s preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement seem to have contributed to the EU’s high share. In the meantime, the US AGOA is showing some positive effects. It is reported by the US government that total new AGOA-related investment has gone from US$15.3 million in 2000 to US$77.1 million in 2002. It is also reported that foreign companies have established major operations in Kenya in response to AGOA incentives, which have created almost 30,000 jobs by 2002.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 73.1 Overview Lesotho’s economy is highly dependent on income from migrant workers in South Africa. Despite its unstable political situation, its GDP has been growing continuously. The most recent data shows that GDP growth in 2001 was 4% year-on-year. A sharp decline in GDP growth in 1998 was due to turmoil by a military coup and also to the completion of the first stage of Lesotho Highland Water Project. Exports of goods and services have been contributing to GDP at the 15-35% level and are increasing. Trade Structure Lesotho’s exports in 2001 were valued at US$248 million, having grown 42.78 % from the previous year. Lesotho’s export data before 1999 are not available in the UNCOMTRADE database. With regard to Lesotho’s import, the total figure of US$102 million in the Import Matrix is heavily underestimated because Lesotho’s import data from South Africa, which is the dominant exporter to Lesotho, have not been adequately reported. Lesotho’s apparel export has rapidly increased in recent years and become the most major export of the country. This rapid growth of apparel

export and the surge of textile and fabric import seem to be closely interrelated. Most of Lesotho’s apparel export goes to the US. The high growth of US-destined apparel export has been facilitated by the introduction of the AGOA’s apparel and textile benefits. Asian businesses have quickly responded to it to garner the benefits of tariff and quota exempted export to the US. They have set up factories in Lesotho and been importing raw materials, namely textiles and fabrics, from their home countries, particularly Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. Trade Regime Historically, Lesotho, as a member of the SADC, has been largely dependent on South Africa for its trade. In the 1980s Lesotho’s export to SADC countries accounted for more than 80% of its entire export; however, this figure have decreased to less than 30% in recent years. As already mentioned, the US has emerged as the largest export market, as a result of rapid increase of apparel export under the AGOA. Although diminished in share, Lesotho’s export, such as diamond export, to the EU has benefited from its preferential treatments under the Lome convention, currently the Cotonou agreement, and the EBA.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 1320.8 Overview Although Liberia’s GDP growth rate was negative from the late 1980s to the early 1990s because of internal turmoil, it began to recover after 1995. It reached 100% in 1997, but since then has been declining. Liberia’s GDP growth rate reached a stable level at 5.3% in 2001. As Liberia does not report data on its macroeconomic export, it is difficult to know the importance of exports for its economic growth. Trade Structure Liberia’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was about US$819 million, having declined at an average annual rate of 5.03% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 total import value was US$3.8 billion, having declined at 1.53%. These figures, however, should be treated with caution because they include transfers of ships’ registration as trade transactions. According to the Matrices, Liberia’s high-share export as well as import groups are machinery and transport equipment (mainly ships, boats and floating structures), which accounted for 60.99% and 87.88% of the total export and import, respectively. These are basically the transfers of vessels’ nationalities. Liberia’s actual high-share

exports are rubber and woods categorized under SITC 2. According to the Matrices, the EU is the largest trading partner for Liberia. However, while ship-related transactions have increased, Liberia’s real export of rubber and wood towards the EU has declined in the past decade. In contrast, Asia-destined export of wood and rubber has increased over the same period. On the import side, the trade data show that Asia is the largest trading partner. This is because South Korea, Japan and other Asian countries have a number of ships registered under the Liberian flag. Trade Regime Liberia has not gained WTO membership, but it is a member of the ECOWAS, regional economic framework in Western Africa. In spite of this regional framework, Liberia’s intra-African trade transactions remain minimal. Liberia is granted preferential treatments by the EU; however, these treatments do not seem to be helpful for increasing Liberia’s export to the EU. Japan’s LDC preferential tariffs do not seem to have contributed to increasing the country’s export either. Liberia is not qualified for the AGOA yet.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) N/A Overview The proportion of Libya’s exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 20%, even reaching 35.56% in 2000. On the other hand, gross foreign direct investment has been about 1% of GDP. Owing much to the long-time economic sanction against this country, overall, macro economic data was not being reported sufficiently to the UN in the past decade Trade Structure Libya’s 1999-2001 average total export value to the world was about US$11.1 billion with an annual change of 0.45% from the early 1990s. In the meantime the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was about US$3.5 billion, having declined by -3.14% annually. Libya’s major export product is mineral fuels (e.g., crude oil, gas) which account for an overwhelming share of 95.37% of the country’s total exports. The second highest-share product group is chemical products; however, its share is as small as 3.14% of the country’s total exports. Both of them have increased slowly since the early 1990s. On the import side, Libya depends on foreign markets for various products from food to machines, among which machinery and transport equipment account for a relatively high share of 34% of the total import.

Libya’s trade is predominantly dependent on the EU both in terms of export and import. Among the EU countries, Italy is the leading trade partner for Libya, followed by Germany, the UK and France. Because of long-pending airline bombing disputes, Libya has been estranged from the US market. The US presence is also minimal in Libya’s import. In relation to Asia, Libya’s export to the region makes up only 0.75% of the country’s total export. On the import side, Asia’s weighting is relatively higher with an 11% share than the other trading partners except the EU. Trade Regime Libya has neither been accepted as a WTO member nor granted any preferential trade treatments by its trade partners. The major reason for this, as is widely known, is that the United Nations had imposed economic sanctions on Libya for quite a long period. In December 2001 Libya submitted an official application to enter the WTO. However, gaining WTO membership requires the unanimous approval of all the WTO members. Taking this into account, while the economic sanctions were removed in 1999, it is believed that it will still take some time and effort for the country to make up for the loss of its external economic ties.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 1316.7 Overview Madagascar’s GDP has been growing throughout the past decade and its growth rate has been increasing; its GDP annual growth rate was about 2% in 1993, but increased later on to 4.6% in 1999 and even to 6.0% in 2001. The weight of export in Madagascar’s GDP has also been increasing as the ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP in the early 1990s was around 15% and surged to around 30% in the past few years. Trade Structure Madagascar’s 1999-2001 average total export was valued at US$925 million, having increased at an average annual change of 10.91% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import was valued at US$760 million, having increased at an average annual change of 8.33%. Madagascar’s major export product group is food and animals (e.g. coffee, vanilla, prawns) with a 44.85% share of the total export. Miscellaneous manufactured goods (mostly garments), which account for 41.8% share, show a rapid increase at an annual average change of 38.51%. On the import side, manufactured items under SITC Groups 6 and 7 together account for two-third of the country’s total import.

The EU is the largest trading partner both in terms of export and import. In particular, EU-destined export account for 60.43% of Madagascar’s total export, and has been growing rapidly at 10.80% per annum. In the meantime, the country’s import from the EU has also been increasing at 3.77% per annum. In relation to Asia, Madagascar’s trade is also increasing in both directions. Among others, Madagascar’s vanilla export has been rapidly increasing towards Asia. In terms of import, Asia is the second largest import source next to the EU. Trade Regime Madagascar is a member of the WTO as well as the COMESA, a regional economic framework in Eastern and Southern Africa. As a LDC, Madagascar has been eligible for LDC preferential treatments by developed countries. The EU’s preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention and the EBA initiative seem to have contributed to increasing Madagascar’s EU-destined export. Furthermore, Madagascar has been an AGOA country since 2000 and eligible for apparel and textile benefits under AGOA since March 2001. This special benefit by the US has prompted the boost of Madagascar’s apparel and textile exports in recent years.

In spite of the fluctuation of the GDP growth rate, the ratio of the export of goods and services to GDP has consistently been in the range between 20% and 30%. Trade Structure The 1999-2001 average value of Malawi’s total export to the world was about US$418 million, having increased slightly at an average annual change of 0.53% from the 1990-1992 average. In the meantime, Malawi’s import has also increased at a moderate pace of 1.47% annually to US$418 million. For Malawi, three agricultural products, namely, tobacco, tea and sugar, are major exports. Among them, tobacco is the leading product, accounting for more than 60% of the country’s total exports. Tea, sugar and other food products together account for 19% of the total exports. On the other hand, Malawi imports a wide range of products, of which machinery and transport equipment accounts for the highest share,

followed by material-based manufactures and chemicals. The EU is the major export destination for Malawi with a 42.31% share. However, as a single country, the US is the largest export market for Malawi thanks to tobacco export. On the import side, in contrast, Malawi is highly dependent on neighboring African countries such as South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Zambia. Trade Regime Malawi is a member of the WTO as well as the SADC and COMESA, which have created relatively close economic ties among Southern African countries. These regional economic frameworks as well as geographical and historical factors seem to have contributed to the high dependency of Malawi’s import on Africa Although the EU’s high share in Malawi’s export can be more or less attributable to its preferential treatments, those treatments do not seem to be as effective as they were before. In the recent trend, the most tangible effects are seen with regard to the AGOA by the US, whose apparel and textile benefits are presumed to have driven Malawi’s exports to the US in the sector.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 154.4 Overview Having bottomed out at around –2.0% in 1993, Mali’s GDP growth rate increased considerably and stabilized at around 6% before declining to 1.44% by 2001. Exports have been important for growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 15% and reached 31.49% in 2001. Trade Structure The Export Matrix indicates that Mali’s total export value to the world for a period of 1999-2001 was about US$235 million. However, this total value can be underestimated because gold, which now accounts for about half of Mali’s total export, is underreported in the partners’ data of the UNCOMTRADE database. As a result, trade magnitude, trade structure, and trade origin/destination profiles may all be distorted in the Export Matrix. Mali’s leading export is gold (SITC 9), followed by cotton (SITC 2). Gold became the country’s largest export in the late 1990s, surpassing cotton’s share, which now accounts for about 30% of Mali’s total exports. On the import side, Mali acquires from overseas various products from food and medicals to electric products to capital goods.

Mali’s major export markets include France, Switzerland, Italy, Thailand, Cote d'Ivoire, and Algeria. Although the Export Matrix indicates Asia is the largest importer of Mali’s goods, this may not be true if gold export is properly reflected in the Matrix. On the import side, the EU is predominant trading partner; major European suppliers include France, Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg. Also, the US, Japan and Cote d'Ivoire are major import sources for Mali. Trade Regime Mali is a WTO member. The country is also a member of the ECOWAS and WAEMU, regional economic frameworks in Western Africa. Mali is also extended preferential treatments by developed countries. In relation to the EU, Mali is granted preferential market accesses under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative; however, they do not seem to be effective for increasing Mali’s export to the EU. As for the US, Mali became eligible for the AGOA in 2000. The US government reports that Mali’s duty-free export under the AGOA amounted to US$342,000 in 2002, accounting for 13% of the country’s total export to the US.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 359.2 Overview Mauritania’s GDP has generally grown at a rate of more than 4% since 1993, except for the year 1997 when the growth rate slipped down to 3.16%. The ratio of exports of goods and services was above 40% from 1990 to 1996, but has fallen below 40% since 1997. It was down further to 37.96% in 2001. This downward trend can be attributed to sluggish export growth since the mid-1990s. Trade Structure Mauritania’s 1999-2001 average total export to the world was valued at approximately US$516 million, having grown at an average annual change of 1.31% since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’ total import value for 1999-2001 was US$512 million, having grown at 1.48%. Mauritania’s major export products are food and live animals (e.g., fish) and non-oil crude materials (e.g., iron), which respectively account for 50.40% and 47.05% of its total export to the world. However, the latter fell slightly at an average annual change of 0.52% from the early 1990s whereas the former registered 3.59% annual change. On the import side, food (SITC 0) and manufactured items (SITC 6 and 7) are high-share exports.

The EU is the largest trading partner both in terms of export and import. Next to the EU, Asia comes second also in both directions. Exports destined for the EU and Asia show a stark contrast; while about 70% of EU-destined consists of iron ore, more than 85% of Asia-destined export is fish. In terms of import, both the EU and Asia supplies equally divers products to Mauritania. Trade Regime Mauritania is a member of the WTO. Although Mauritania was a member of the ECOWAS, a regional economic framework in Western Africa, the country withdrew from it in the end of 2000. In relation to developed countries, Mauritania has been granted preferential treatments by them. With regard to the EU, Mauritania is extended preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome convention, and the EBA initiative. These preferential treatments as well as the former colonial tie with France seem to have contributed to the EU’s high share in Mauritania’s export. In relation to the US, Mauritania became eligible for the AGOA in 2000; however, the US government reports that AGOA-related export accounted for only 4% of Mauritania’s total export to the US in 2002.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 56.9 Overview Mauritius’s GDP has been registering high growth over the past decade with annual growth rates generally above 5%. Its annual growth once dropped to 2.6% in 2000, but rebounded to 7.2% in 2001. Such high growth of Mauritius’s economy has been driven by export; the ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has been around 60% throughout the past decade. Trade Structure Mauritius’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$1.55 billion, having grown at 2.60% annually from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value is about US$1.65 billion, having grown at 5.18% annually. Mauritius’s leading export product group is miscellaneous manufactured goods (e.g., garments), whose share is 67.12% and experienced an average annual change of 3.90%. Its second-highest share export product group is food and live animals (e.g., sugar, fish, etc.). On the import side, manufactured products categorized under SITC 6, 7 and 8 together account for about 70% of Mauritius’s total import.

The EU is the predominantly leading export market for Mauritius, accounting for 72.49% of the total export. The US comes second with 18.84% while Asia accounts for 5.06%. On the other hand, the Import Matrix shows that Asia has become the largest supplier of Mauritius’s import. Manufactures are major products imported from Asia. Trade Regime Mauritius is a member of the WTO as well as the SADC and COMESA, regional economic frameworks in Eastern and Southern Africa. Because Mauritius is a middle income country, it is not granted LDC preferential tariffs by developed countries. On the other hand, Mauritius is granted preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, by the EU. Presumably, Mauritius’s export dependence on the EU has been promoted by these preferential treatments as well as its former colonial ties with European countries. As far as the US is concerned, Mauritius became eligible for the AGOA in 2000 and its apparel benefits in 2001. It is reported by the US government that duty-free exports under the AGOA amounted to US$114 million in 2002, accounting for 41% of Mauritius’s total export to the US.

The ratio of exports of goods and services to the GDP remained stable at around 25% for the most part of the 1990s, and has risen to above 30% since 1999. Trade Structure Morocco’s 1999-2001 average total export value was approximately US$7.8 billion as a result of an average annual change of 4.24% since the early 1990s. In the meantime, Morocco’s 1999-2001 average total import value from the world was about US$8.8 billion as a result of an average annual change of 3.94% over the same decade. Morocco’s exports are relatively well-diversified. Its major export products include manufactured goods (e.g., outergarments, undergarments, etc.), food and live animals (e.g., vegetables, crustaceans, etc.), machinery and transport equipment (e.g., valves, electric cables, etc.), and chemical products (e.g., fertilizers). Most of these groups registered relatively high average annual changes in the past decade except for food and live animals and chemical products. In

the meantime, Morocco’s imports are also in variety. Among others, machinery and transport equipment (e.g., telecommunication equipment), and material-based manufactures account for comparatively high shares. For Morocco, the EU is predominantly the largest trading partner. The Export Matrix shows that the weighting of EU-destined exports has shifted from primary commodities to manufactured items. Among the remaining trading partners, Asia is now the second largest export market, making up 13.09% of Morocco’s total export. Morocco’s import from Asia has also increased to account for an about 8% share of the total import. Trade Regime Morocco is a member of the WTO. In Africa, Morocco belongs to the Arab Maghreb Union (UMA), whose other members include Tunisia, Libya, Algeria and Mauritania. This organization, however, wears political nature rather than economic nature, comprised of Islamic countries in the region. Morocco has Free Trade Agreements with the EU and the EFTA, but similar arrangements have not yet been made with its other trade partners. This clearly has much to do with the fact that the EU’s shares are outstanding both in terms of export and import

Box 1: Discrepancies and Asymmetries in Trade Statistics

Academics and practitioners desire trade data to be accurate for reliable factual analysis and viablepolicy options. As trade entails two corresponding partners, i.e. exporter and importer, it is assumedthat one of the best way to verify the accuracy of trade data is to compare one side’s export datawith the other side’s import data. However, in practice, data of trade flows between partnercountries differ for several reasons such as unavoidable reasons like different bases of valuation andtime lags; different national systems of recording trade, including conversion practice; and errors inrecording of trade data. Bases of Valuation Differences between export and import figures arise because in principle exports are recorded on anf.o.b. basis and imports on a c.i.f. basis. This difference indicates the cost of international freightand insurance. Time Lags The time lag between the departure of exports from the country of origin and their arrival as importsand recording in the receiving country could lead to differences of reported trade data. For instance,at a certain moment, a part of world trade has been recorded by the exporting country but not yetreported by the importing country. If we assume transit takes one month, then a month value ofimports is not recorded in that years’ trade value by the receiving country while the exporter countryreports that value. Furthermore, exchange fluctuation during the transit time could lead todifferences in the US$ converted value. National Systems of Recording Trade Discrepancies between export and import figures arise because countries adopt different systems ofrecording trade. The following four factors are major causes for such discrepancies. The first factoris the use of different trading system. Some countries use the general trading system while othersuse the special trading system. The special system records the movement of goods after customsclearance, whereas the general system records the movement of goods across national boundaries.The second factor is difference in the definition of partner countries. Most countries record importsas coming from the producing country; however, some countries register them as entering fromcountries of consignment. Third, some countries exclude certain goods from the trade data whileothers include those goods. For instance, countries often adopt different approaches for militaryequipment, gold, second-hand ships and aircraft, electricity, and repaired good that are to returnedto the owners. The fourth factor is different conversion practices. Different exchange rates orinappropriate exchange rates are used by either partner of trade for the same consignment. Errors in Recording of Trade Data Asymmetries of trade data could be caused by defective, inconsistent, or unreliable administrativeprocedures for compiling trade statistics. Further, deliberate or unintended overestimation or underestimation of trade values could also lead to distorted reporting. International organizations wellrecognize the problems of discrepancies and asymmetries in trade statistics and make efforts tocorrect such problems. The IMF’s statistics department takes corrective measures when they aredetected in the DOT data. Furthermore, when its technical assistance missions are sent todeveloping countries, the countries’ trade data are compared with partner data, and if there seriousdiscrepancies, the IMF staff make suggestions for the improvement of recording, valuation,conversion, and classification procedures as necessary. International organizations such as the UN,the OECD, the EUROSTAT, and the IMF have conducted methodological and empirical studieswith an aim at the formulation and adoption of corrective measures for asymmetries anddiscrepancies of trade statistics.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 35.9 Overview Mozambique’s GDP has grown at an annual rate of more than 5% on average over the past decade and exports have accounted for a moderate fraction of the GDP. The ratio of exports of goods and services to the GDP has consistently been above 10%, reaching 21% in 2001. Trade Structure Mozambique’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$477 million, having grown at an average annual change of 2.60% from the early 1990s. Mozambique’s import has also increased 5.17% annually to US$1,193 million on the 1999-2001 average. Mozambique’s high-share export product groups to the world are material-based manufactured goods (e.g., aluminum, wood) (35.93%), food and live animals (e.g., prawns, cashew nuts) (30.70%). The start-up of the Mozal aluminum smelter in 2000 dramatically changed the export structure of Mozambique, making aluminum as important an export as prawns. This also contributed to the doubling of the total export value between 2000 and 2001. The project of the Mozal aluminum smelter also caused sharp increases from 1998 to 2000 in Mozambique’s import value, although the

country’s import slightly declined after the completion of the first phase of the project in 2000. Mozambique’s import varies from machines and transport equipment to oil and food. For Mozambique, South Africa has been the most important trading partner as a single country, especially in terms of the country’s import. The EU is also Mozambique’s important trading partner with its share accounting for 60.81% of the total export. The EU’s share in Mozambique’s export is growing rapidly as it absorbs a large amount of aluminum from Mozambique. Trade Regime The SADC and the SACU have created relatively strong economic ties among Southern African countries. Mozambique’s high share of transactions with African countries, mostly South Africa, could be attributed to these economic ties. It is assumed that the EU’s preferential treatments have contributed to the high share and recent rapid increase of export from Mozambique to the EU. On the other hand, preferential treatments under the AGOA do not seem to have contributed to increasing Mozambique’s export towards the US.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) N/A Overview Namibia’s GDP growth has been positive, ranging between 2-8% over the past decade. Its economy registered high growth in the early 1990s, and slowed down into the 21st century. In Namibia’s economic growth, export has been playing a significant role as the ratio of exports of goods and services to the GDP has been around 50% throughout the past decade. Trade Structure The value of Namibia’s total export to the world in 2001 was about US$920 million, having grown at 65.40% from 2000. In the mean time, according to the Matrix, Namibia’s import has increased to US$ 453 million. However, this figure does not properly represent the actual total import value because Namibia’s import from South Africa, which is the dominant import source of the country, is vastly underreported in the COMTRADE database. In fact, Namibia’s trade balance is said to be in persistent deficit. Namibia’s major exports include material-based manufactures (e.g., diamonds, copper, zinc) and food (e.g., processed fish, beef.). Among these exports, diamonds account for around a 50% share of Namibia’s total export; however, this is not properly reflected in the Export Matrix. Although diamond is categorized under the

SITC 6 group, Namibia’s diamond export to the EU seems to be counted under the SITC 9 group. In terms of trading partners, Namibia’s export is highly oriented to the EU. Out of the remaining share, Asia’s share accounts for 3.55%. In spite of a small share, Namibia’s export to Asia grew at 26.46% from 2000 to 2001. On the import side, South Africa is the dominant partner although not reflected in the Import Matrix. Trade Regime Namibia is a member of the WTO as well as regional economic frameworks such as the SADC, COMESA, SACU and CMA. These regional arrangements have created close economic ties with Southern African countries, mainly South Africa. Because Namibia is a medium income country thanks to its endowment of diamonds, it is not eligible for LDC initiatives such as the EBA of the EU or LDC preferential tariffs of Japan. On the other hand, Namibia has been granted preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention; thus, it is likely that such preferential measures by the EU have contributed to the high growth of EU-bound exports. Namibia is also an AGOA country and eligible for its apparel and textile benefits; however, noticeable effects have not been observed in relation to the AGOA.

Overview Niger’s GDP has grown at a rate of around 2%, but its GDP growth was -0.57% in 1999. Niger’s GDP recovered in 2001 and its growth rate has reached 7.57%. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been around 15%, and it reached 16.66% in 2001. Trade Structure Niger’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$296 million, having increased at 2.25% annually since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 total import value was US$303 million, having grown at 3.13% per annum. According to the Export Matrix, Niger’s highest-share export group is mineral fuels, accounting for 56.76% of the total export; however, Niger is a petroleum importer rather than exporter. It is likely that some trading partners have misreported petroleum export from another country as from Niger, or Niger engages in re-exporting of its petroleum import. In fact, Nigeria’s major export is uranium (SITC 524). This country is said to be the third largest uranium producer after Canada and Australia. The country’s other major exports include livestock and cowpeas. On the import side,

Niger relies on external sources for various products from food, consumables to capital goods. The Export Matrix indicates that Asia is now the largest export market, accepting a large amount of petroleum from the country; however, this figure does not seem to correctly reflect the reality. On the contrary, it is generally reported that France and Nigeria are the two largest export markets for Niger. On the import side, France is also the largest source, followed by Côte d’Ivoire and Nigeria. Trade Regime Niger is a WTO member. As for its economic relations with African countries, the ECOWAS and WAEMU have created strong economic ties among Western African countries. Niger’s transactions with African countries, especially Nigeria and Côte d’Ivoire, could be attributed to these economic ties. As far as preferential treatments are concerned, the EU’s preferential measures do not seem to be effective for further promoting Niger’s export. Niger is also eligible for the AGOA including its apparel and textile benefits, but the US government reports AGOA-related export represented only 2% of Niger’s total export to the US in 2003.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 149.8 Overview Nigeria’s GDP grew at a rate of almost 5% in 1991, but since then the GDP growth rate has decreased slightly. Nigeria’s GDP growth rate was only 1.10% in 1999, but then recovered to 3.90% in 2001. Exports have been a very important factor for its growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 35%, and reached 48.28%in 2001. Trade Structure Nigeria’s 1999-2001 average total export value was approximately US$18.3 billion, having grown at 3.72% annually In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$7.8 billion, having grown at 3.13% annually. Nigeria’s major export product group is mineral fuels (e.g., crude oil, gas), accounting for an overwhelming share of 95.30% of the total export. On the other hand, the country’s major import product group is machinery and transport equipment (e.g., motor cars, telecom equipment), accounting for 38.09%. The US is the largest trading partner of Nigeria. Above all, the US’s share in Nigeria’s export is high, accounting for 45% of the country’s total export. The US also accounts for close to 10% in Nigeria’s total import, still the largest share as a

single country. While the EU is also an important trading partner of Nigeria, Asia’s share is growing in the country’s trade. In particular, increase of petroleum export is the fastest towards Asia among all the trading partner groups. In the same manner, Nigeria’s import from Asia has increased the most rapidly. Trade Regime Nigeria is a WTO member, and it is also a member of the ECOWAS, a regional economic framework in Western Africa. Nigeria’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties, although they do no seem to be very strong. In relation to trade partners outside Africa, Nigeria has been granted preferential trade treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, by the EU and under the AGOA by the US. Nigeria’s former colonial ties with Europe as well as the EU’s preferential treatments have contributed to the EU’s high presence in Nigeria’s trade; however, such ties and treatments do not seem to be helpful for furthering their trade. On the other hand, preferential treatments under the AGOA are playing a key role in fostering Nigeria’s export. The US government reports that more than 90% of Nigeria’s energy-related products are exported under the AGOA in the last few years.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 411.1 Overview Rwanda’s GDP growth rate has fluctuated between -2% and 7% over the past decade. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has been increasing from 6% to 10% over the past three years. There has been little foreign direct investment in Rwanda. Trade Structure Rwanda’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$60 million, having declined by 8.33% annually since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value to the world was about US$131 million, having also declined by 2.88% annually over the past decade. Rwanda’s highest-share export product group is food and live animals (e.g. coffee, tea), accounting for 55.20% although their export values have declined due to the drop of their international prices since the late 1990s. Rwanda’s second major export product group is non-oil crude materials (e.g., tin), accounting for 38.62%. On the import side, Rwanda is dependent on external sources for various products from food, chemicals and clothing to motor cars.

Rwanda’s largest trading partner is the EU, accounting for more than 40% of its total export and import. However, the country’s trade with the EU has rapidly declined over the past decade. Next to the EU, Asia has grown to be the second largest export market for Rwanda. In particular, Asia-destined tin export has shown rapid increase in the past decade. On the other hand, Africa and the US are important sources of Rwanda’s import, accounting for about 23% and 21% of the country’s total import. Trade Regime Rwanda is a member of the WTO. The country is also a member of the COMESA and the ECCAS, regional economic frameworks in Eastern and Southern Africa. In spite of these regional frameworks, trade statistics show that the country’s intra-African trade has been in decline. Rwanda is granted preferential treatments by the EU; however, these treatments do not seem to have promoted Rwanda’s export towards the EU. Neither has the AGOA shown any tangible effects for enhancing Rwanda’s export.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 573.4 Overview The GDP growth performance of São Tomé and Principe was sluggish until the late 1990s, with the growth rate remaining below the level of 2.2% until the year 1997. Signs of improvement appeared in 1998 when GDP growth rose 1% over the previous year to 2.5%. It then continued to climb to 3% in 2000 and 2001. Trade Structure São Tomé and Principe’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$16.3 million as a result of average annual change of 15.17% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was about US$39 million, having slowly increased at 1.09% annually. São Tomé and Principe’s trade balance has perpetually been in deficit due to lack of locally substitutable productions. São Tomé’s major export is cocoa. Although this country’s cocoa production was in decline in the early 1990s, increasing trends of international cocoa prices in the late 1990s helped increase the country’s export gains. Other than cocoa, the Export Matrix indicates that São Tomé exports a large amount of fishery products. In addition, according to the Matrix, manufacturing exports have been increasing in recent years. On the import side, Sao Tome is highly dependent on external sources; it imports all fuels, most

manufactures, consumables, and a substantial amount of food. The EU is predominantly the largest trading partner of São Tomé and Principe, accounting for 67.88% of the total export and 79.01% of the total import. Among others, Portugal, former suzerain of São Tomé, is the leading trading partner. São Tomé’s exports towards the US, Asia and other regions have shown rapid increases of 24-32% per annum although their shares still remain moderate. Trade Regime São Tomé and Principe has not yet gained WTO membership, but it is a member of the ECCAS, regional economic framework in Central Africa. In spite of this regional framework, however, Sato Tome’s intra-African trade remains minimal. As far as preferential trade treatments are concerned, the EU has extended to São Tomé preferential measures under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative. These preferential measures as well as the former colonial ties probably have contributed to active trade between the two sides. In relation to the US, São Tomé has been eligible for the AGOA since 2000; however, the US government reports there has been no AGOA-related export or investment up to year 2003.

It reached 5.75% in 2001. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 20% and was 29.60% in 2001. Trade Structure Senegal’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$568 million, having declined at an average annual change of 0.39% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$1.5 billion, having grown at 4.84% over the same period. Senegal’s leading export product group is food and live animals (e.g., fish, groundnut oil), which accounts for 49.98% of its total export, having slightly increased at 0.54% annually. The country’s second-highest share product group is chemical products (e.g., phosphate chemicals), accounting for 13.59% of the total. On the import side, Senegal is dependent on external sources for various products from food and petroleum to chemicals and capital goods. Senegal’s predominant trading partner is the EU, accounting for 64.63% of its total export and

61.14% of its total import. Seeing recent trends, Senegal’s export towards the EU has been in decline while the country’s import from it has been increasing. Next to the EU, Senegal’s second largest export market is Asia, especially India. Asia is also an important source of Senegal’s import, accounting for 16.23% of the country’s total import. Trade Regime Senegal is a WTO member. The country is also a member of the ECOWAS and the WAEMU, regional economic frameworks, and playing a key role in these organizations. Senegal’s transactions with African countries could be attributed to these economic ties. Among African countries, Mali is Senegal’s important export market while Nigeria is its major source of import. As far as preferential treatments are concerned, the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA, together with the former colonial ties with France, seem to have contributed to the high share of EU-destined export; however, Senegal’s EU-destined export has been in decline for the past decade. In relation to the AGOA, the US government reports that Senegal’s duty-free export under the AGOA represented 13% of the country’s total export to the US in 2002.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 41.8 Overview Seychelles’s GDP growth has been fluctuating for the past decade; its economy experienced a setback in the early 1990s, recovered in the mid-1990s, but again started to slow down from the late 1990s. Seychelles’ economy has been mainly dependent on tourism and fishing. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP grew from below 60% in 1991 to above 80% in 2001. Trade Structure The 1999-2001 average value of Seychelles’s total export was about US$197 million, having increased at 7.77% annually since the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was about US$301 million, having increased at 10.52% since the early 1990s. Seychelles’s leading export product group is food and live animals (e.g., canned tuna, cinnamon), which accounts for an overwhelming share 90.02% of the total export. Furthermore, this product group grew at 7.81% annually from the early 1990s. On the other hand, the country is dependent on external sources for a wide variety of goods ranging from food and daily consumables to petroleum and machines.

For Seychelles, the EU is the largest trading partner both in terms of export and import, accounting for 77.63% and 43.86% respectively. Moreover, the country’s trade with the EU has been increasing in both directions. Regarding the other trading partners, Asia comes next to the EU as Seychelles’s export market although it is in decline. In terms of import, the US comes second with a 21.09% share. This is because the country’s import from the US surged in 2001 due to its purchase of Boeing 767. Trade Regime Seychelles is not a member of the WTO, but belongs to the SADC and COMESA, regional economic frameworks in Southern Africa. Seychelles’s growing intra-African trade transactions may be attributable to these regional arrangements Because Seychelles is a middle income country, it is not eligible for LDC initiatives such as the EBA of the EU or LDC preferential tariffs of Japan. Seychelles is also eligible for the AGOA; however the US government reports that no AGOA-related export or investment were reported in 2002.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 888.4 Overview Sierra Leone’s economy stagnated throughout the 1990s because of the civil war that broke out in 1991. The country’s GDP growth rate decreased continuously in the mid-1990s and even reached -20% in 1997. However, as the civil war came to an end, Sierra Leone’s economy began to recover and its GDP growth reached 5.40% in 2001. The ratio of exports of goods and services to the GDP has consistently been above 10% and recovered to 17.09% in 2001. Trade Structure Sierra Leone’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$110 million, having declined at an average annual change of -10.46% from the period 1990-1992. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$244 million, having grown at 4.35%. Sierra Leone’s major exports are diamonds; however, the Export Matrix shows that the country exports more of machinery and transport equipment (SITC 7) than diamonds (SITC 6). Assumingly, Sierra Leone’s diamonds exports are underestimated in the statistics probably because large amounts of diamonds were smuggled out of the country during the civil war. On the import side, Sierra Leone acquires a wide variety of goods from overseas, raging from food and beverages, petroleum and chemicals, to telecom equipment and motor cars.

In terms of trading partners, the EU accounts for predominant shares both in export and import. The statistics show that in 1999-2001 passenger motor cars and furniture, which obviously are not products of Sierra Leone origin, were exported in large amounts to the EU. On the import side, Sierra Leone’s leading imports from the EU’s in 1999-2001 was petroleum products. Presumably, these exports and imports could have some relations with the UN peace keeping operations during those years. Trade Regime Sierra Leone does not have WTO membership, but it is a member of the ECOWAS. Not only has the ECOWAS created economic ties among Western African countries, it has played a significant role in bringing Sierra Leone’s political situations back to normalcy. Sierra Leone is granted LDC preferential treatments as well as other preferential treatments. In relation to the EU, Sierra Leone has been qualified for the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative. The country’s former colonial ties with the UK as well as these preferential arrangements have presumably contributed to the EU’s high shares in Sierra Leone’s trade; however, EU-destined export declined widely in the past decade. Sierra Leone became eligible for the AGOA in 2002; therefore the trade statistics here do not reflect any effects of the AGOA introduction.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) N/A Overview Because of the civil war since 1991, basic economic indicators have not been reported to the World Bank for Somalia. Trade Structure Somalia’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$56million, having decreased by 3.76% annually from the early 1990s. In the meantime, Somalia’s 1999-2001 average total import value was about US$140million, having decreased by 1.70% annually from the early 1990s. These statistics, however, could be unreliable because obtaining articulate data is presumed to be difficult under the long-lasting civil wars. Somalia’s major export product group is food and live animals (e.g., livestock, bananas), accounting for about 60% of the country’s total export. The country’s second largest export product group is non-oil crude materials (e.g., hide and skins, crude vegetables), accounting for 22.19% of the total export. On the import side, the trade data shows that Somalia is largely dependent on external sources for its food supplies. The country also imports a wide range of products such as tobacco, vegetable oils, telecom equipment, and motor cars.

Somalia’s major trading partners are Middle Eastern countries such as Saudi Arabia, Yemen and the United Arab Emirates. Major exports towards those countries are livestock and fishery products. In Asia, which accounts for a 13.19% share in Somalia’s total export, Pakistan is an important export market for this country. In terms of import, Djibouti, Kenya, Brazil, Saudi Arabia and India are said to be major sources of Somalia’s imports. Trade Regime Somalia is not a member of the WTO. Nor has it gained membership of any economic frameworks in the region. On the other hand, the EU has extended preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative towards Somalia. In spite of these preferential treatments, however, Somalia’s EU-bound export has remained minimal. Neither Japan’s LDC preferential tariffs have had scarce effects for promoting Somalia’s export. In relation to the US, it is presumed that Somalia’s lower volume of export to the US has something to do with worsened bilateral relations and the absence of preferential trade arrangements between the two countries. In contrast, geographical proximity to the Middle East seems to have counted much for Somalia’s export.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 62.4 Overview South Africa’s GDP has been steadily growing over the past decade since it began to integrate into the world’s economy upon the abandonment of its apartheid policy. Its annual GDP growth rate has ranged between 2% and 3% since 1995. South Africa’s weighting of exports in GDP has been fairly steady; the ratio of the exports of goods and services to GDP has fallen in the range 20-30% over the past decade. Trade Structure The 1999-2001 average value of South Africa’s total export to the world was about US$29 billion, having grown at 6.57% annually. In the meantime, South Africa’s import also increased at 5.52% per annum to US$ 20 billion on the 1999-2001 average. South Africa’s major exports are metals and material-based manufactures such as gold, diamonds, platinum, uranium, etc. Machinery and transport equipment (automobiles, auto parts etc.) shows a rapid growth at 21.72% annually. Such growth of autos and related products has been accelerated by the Motor Industry Development Programme (MIDP) launched by the Government of South Africa in the mid 1990s. In tandem with such export boost, import of manufacturing parts has also been increasing in recent years.

The EU has been South Africa’s most important trading partner in terms of both export and import. Furthermore, EU-destined export has been increasing at a high pace. South Africa’s trade has also been expanding in relation to other trading partners as well. In particular, South Africa’s trade with Asia has been developing the most rapidly. Asia is increasing its dependence on South Africa for natural resources that are needed for their industrial development. Trade Regime As a leading exporter in Africa, it is a WTO member as well as a key member of regional economic frameworks such as the SADC, SACU and CMA. In Southern Africa, South Africa is a playing a “hub” role by both exporting and importing large volumes of products to and from neighboring countries. In relation to Europe, South Africa concluded the Free Trade Agreement in 2000. This agreement is expected to promote trade between the two, but no dramatic surge in trade has been observed as of yet. South Africa is an AGOA country with apparel and textile benefits. However, perhaps because of the maturity of its apparel and textile industry, effects from the AGOA have been limited.

Box 2: Growth of South Africa’s Auto Export upon Its Introduction of theMotor Industry Development Programme

As one of the few countries with the capacity to develop its automobile industry, South Africa hasenjoyed tremendous success in recent years. Thanks to the government’s strategy, the automobileindustry enjoyed an economic boost and has made a positive contribution to the country’s GDP andcorporate profits. Exports of automotive components and 1500-3000cc automobiles increaseddramatically by 60% from 2001 to 2002 in South Africa, which some leading analysts attribute tothe depreciated level of the Rand against the Dollar, Yen and British Pound Sterling. Though external factors might have been of help, this dramatic export growth has been simulated bythe introduction of the Motor Industry Development Programme (MIDP) by the South Africagovernment in 1995. The MIDP allows carmakers to offset duties on automotive componentsimported for the use of exported cars, allowing them to enjoy a much greater economy of scale asexports increase. The MIDP has made South Africa one of the most attractive of the world’semerging markets for automobile manufacturing. Companies such as VW, BMW, Ford, GM,DaimlerChrysler, Toyota and Honda all have substantial investments in the economy in the form ofassembly facilities, as well as sales and customer care centers. Due to the expansive growth of autoexport, the South African government has already decided to extend the MIDP’s expiration datefrom 2007 to 2012. At present, Germany is the main export market (40% of total auto exports), reflecting how SouthAfrican component makers have been integrated into the global production networks of Germancarmakers; namely, BMW, DaimlerChrysler and Volkswagen, all of which assemble cars in SouthAfrica for export to Europe and other overseas markets. These three carmakers account for 97% oftotal car exports from South Africa. The American market is also becoming a major automobileexport market, in part because of BMW’s strategy to start exporting over-3,000 cc cars to the US.Increases in car exports from South Africa to the US is attributed to this, rather than the introductionof AGOA, because cars and auto parts have long been granted tariff-free, quota-free access underthe General System of Tariff Preferences (GSP) . As far as Asia is concerned, Japan has consistently been among South Africa’s top four automobiletrading partners in the world, as well as its most important trading partner in Asia. This trade isstructured such that South Africa mainly exports primary commodities, especially minerals, toJapan, and in return imports manufactured goods, notably automobiles and electronic goods.Currently, however, such trends have begun to change as South Africa has become an emergingauto exporter to the world. The emergence of South Africa as an auto manufacturer has assisted byJapan. Japan is now one of the largest investors in South Africa, and large amounts of investmenthave been directed towards auto assembly and related sectors.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 591.0 Overview Sudan has enjoyed relatively high economic growth ranging from 4% to 7% over the past decade. Its exports of goods and services have accounted for somewhere between 8% and 17% of GDP over the past three years. Gross foreign direct investment has also been about 3.5% of GDP during the past two years (1999 and 2000). Trade Structure Sudan’s 1999-2001 average total export value was US$1.35 billion, having increased at an annualized change of 15.14% from the 1990-1992. The country’s export growth has especially been dramatic since it started oil export in 1999. In the meantime, Sudan’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$1.27 billion, having grown at an annualized change of 5.04% since the early 1990s. Sudan’s major export product group today is mineral fuels (e.g. crude oil, petroleum products), accounting for a 72.98% share. Non-oil crude materials (e.g., cotton, oil seeds) are the second-highest share product group, accounting for a share of 13.47%. Food and live animals (e.g., sesame, sugar, and livestock) also account for a relatively high share of 9.18% of total exports. On the import side, machinery and equipment (e.g., industrial equipment, motor

cars) are increasingly flowing in Sudan recent years. Imports of material-based manufactures and chemical have been increasing rapidly as well. The prominent trading partner of Sudan is Asia with its shares accounting for 74.39% in export and 39.74% in import. In particular, the increase of exports to Asia (24.85%) is the highest among all trading partner groups. Crude oil is exported in large amounts to Asian countries such as China and Malaysia. In terms of import, China has become one of the most important sources of import for Sudan. Besides, Saudi Arabia as well as the EU (e.g., Germany, the UK, France) has traditionally been leading supplier of Sudan’s imports. Trade Regime Sudan is not a WTO member. On the other hand, it is a member of the COMESA, regional economic framework in the region; however, the country’s intra-African trade remains minimal as of today. As far as preferential treatments are concerned, the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, and the EBA initiative do not seem to have played a significant role for Sudan’s export. Sudan’s trade with the US is close to null as the country remains on the list of terrorism sponsors designated by the US.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 29.3 Overview Swaziland’s economy has been growing mildly throughout the past decade. Its annual GDP growth had been above 3% in the mid-1990s, but slowed down to 1.6% in 2001. Swaziland’s economy has been heavily dependent on exports, as reflected by the high ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP. Trade Structure Swaziland is highly dependent on South Africa for its trade. However, this high presence is not reflected in the Export and Import Matrices as South Africa have not reported sufficient data to the UNCOMTRADE database on its trade with Swaziland. In fact, Swaziland’s total export value shown in the Export Matrix is about one third of the figures presented by the World Bank’s WDI and the IMF’s IFS. In the same manner, Swaziland’s total import value in the Import Matrix is about one tenth of the figures reported in these statistics. Swaziland’s leading exports are soft drink concentrates, sugar, and canned fruits as reflected in the Export Matrix. Pulp (SITC 251) and cotton yarn (SITC 651) are also relatively high share exports. In addition, export of finished apparel products such as outer and under garments is growing in recent years. On

the import side, chemicals and manufactured products categorized under SITC 5-8 are major imports for Swaziland. Swaziland’s largest trading partner is South Africa although it is not properly reflected in the Matrices for the reason already mentioned. Among the remaining trading partners, the EU and the US are major and growing export markets for Swaziland. On the import side, Swaziland is increasingly acquiring products from Asia. Swaziland’s major imports from Asia include motor vehicle and its related materials, fabrics, food, etc. Trade Regime Swaziland is a member of the WTO as well as several regional economic frameworks in Southern Africa. Through these regional arrangements, Swaziland’s economy has been deeply integrated into that of South Africa. Swaziland is not eligible for LDC preferential treatments. However, preferential treatments extended under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention, seem to have contributed to facilitating Swaziland’s export to the EU. In addition, Swaziland is an AGOA country and is eligible for apparel and textile benefits as well. Export growth of apparel and textile products in recent years can be attributed to the introduction of this initiative.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 90.6 Overview Tanzania’s GDP has been growing at an average annual rate of more than 3% since the mid-1990s, and its growth rate increased to more than 5% after 2000. Exports have played a moderately important role in Tanzania’s economic growth, and the ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has averaged about 15% throughout the past decade. Trade Structure The 1999-2001 average value of Tanzania’s total export to the world was about US$578 million, having grown at 3.35% annually from the 1990-1992 average. Tanzania’s import has grown at 2.53% to US$1.2 billion. Tanzania’s major export is gold, now accounting for about half of the total exports. Gold export has recently increased thanks to the start of large-scale gold mining. However, such increase is not yet reflected in the Matrix. Tanzania’s other highest-share exports include food (e.g., cashew nuts, coffee, and spices); non-oil crude materials (e.g., cotton); and material-based manufactures (e.g., diamonds). On the import side, machinery and equipment (e.g. telecom equipment, etc.), material-based manufactures (e.g., fabric, rubber) are high in shares. In Tanzania’s total export, the EU accounts for 47.09%, and Asia comes in second, accounting

for as much as 39.21%. In Asia, India is the major export market, importing a large amount of cashew nuts. On the other hand, South Africa is the largest source, as a single country, of Tanzania’s import. However, among the groups classified here, Asia is the largest source of Tanzania’s import. Trade Regime Tanzania is a member of the WTO as well as regional economic frameworks such as the SADC. Tanzania’s membership of the regional arrangements has created its close economic ties with Eastern as well as Southern African countries, presumably contributing to the relatively high share of Africa in Tanzania’s imports. Tanzania is eligible for preferential trade arrangements such as the Cotonou Agreement and the EBA of the EU and LDC preferential tariffs of Japan. Tanzania is also an AGOA country. Tanzania’s growing exports to the EU and to Japan seem to be attributable, to some extent, to these preferential treatments. Tanzania became eligible for the AGOA in 2000, but the country’s duty free-exports under the AGOA accounted for only 5% of Tanzania’s total exports to the US in 2002. However, it is reported that apparel products are beginning to be exported after Tanzania became qualified for the AGOA’s apparel and textile benefits in 2002.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 205.7 Overview Having bottomed out at around -15.0% in 1993, Togo’s GDP recovered and its GDP growth rate reached 2.70% in 2001. Exports have had an important weighting in its growth. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has consistently been above 20% and it reached 32.63% in 2001. Trade Structure Togo’s 1999-2001 average total export value was about US$226 million, having slightly increased at an average annual rate of 0.32% from the 1990-1992 average. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$636 million, having grown at 0.35% annually over the same period. Togo’s highest-share export product group is non-oil crude materials (e.g., fertilizers (phosphate rock), cotton), which accounts for a share of 58.40% of the country’s total export. The second-highest-share product group is food and live animals (e.g., coffee, cacao), accounting for 16.59%. On the import side, Togo is dependent on external markets for a wide variety of goods raging from food and daily consumables to petroleum and machinery.

Togo’s trading partners are relatively well-diversified. In terms of export, Togo’s major export markets include Nigeria, South Africa, France, Germany, China and Canada. In the Export Matrix, all the trading partner groups except the US equally account for 20-30% shares. In the meantime, Togo’s major sources of import include Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire, France, and China. Trade Regime Togo is a WTO member. The country is also a member of the ECOWAS and the WAEMU, regional economic frameworks in Western Africa; however, Togo’s major trading partners in Africa are Nigeria and South Africa, which are not members of these regional arrangements. As far as preferential treatments are concerned, the EU’s treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention and the EBA initiative do not seem to have been effective for promoting Togo’s export towards the EU. In relation to the US, Togo has not been qualified for the AGOA largely because of concerns, according to the US government, related to economic reform, political pluralism and rule of law, corruption, poverty reduction, and human rights.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 102.7 Overview Tunisia’s GDP growth rate plunged dramatically from 3.9% in 1991 to 2.2% in 1993, but then, after soaring to 5.4% in 1997 and 6.1% in 1999, it consistently stayed above the level of 4%. The ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has been steadily above 40% over the past decade and the trend has been moderately upward. Trade Structure Tunisia’s 1999-2001 average total export value was approximately US$6 billion as a result of an annual change of 6.02% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s import has also increased 5.32% annually to about US$7.8 billion on the 1999-2001 average. Tunisia’s highest share export product group is miscellaneous manufactured goods (mainly garments), which accounts for a 52.23% share with a high average annual change of around 8%. Machinery and transport equipment (e.g., electric cables and supplies) accounts for 14.05% share, having also rapidly increased at 12.60% per annum. Tunisia’s is highly dependent on the EU for its trade. The EU accounts for an overwhelming share of more than 80% of Tunisia’s total trade

both in terms of export and import. In addition, the country’s trade with the EU has been increasing at annual changes of above 5% in both directions. Among the remaining trading partners, Asia accounts for 3.32% in export and 5.11% in import. In particular, Tunisia’s import from Asia is increasing at a high pace of around 11% per annum. Major items that Tunisia imports from Asia include motor vehicles, fabrics, and electric equipment. Trade Regime Tunisia is a member of the WTO. On the other hand, Tunisia is not granted preferential tariff treatments because it is a middle income country. Neither is it a member of regional economic frameworks in Africa. As Tunisia is a French former colony and a neighbor of Europe, the EU has historically been a dominant trading partner of Tunisia. Such close economic relations have further been strengthened by a FTA between Tunisia and the EU, which entered into force in May, 1998. It is assumed that rapid increase of Tunisia’s trade with the EU in recent years is the tangible effects of the FTA.

Overview Uganda’s GDP has fluctuated between 4% and 12% over the past decade. Its exports have contributed to GDP growth with at around 11%. FDI has been at the level of 2.5% in recent years. Trade Structure Uganda’s 1999-2001 average total export value was US$333 million, having grown at an average annual change of 5.68% from the early 1990s. In the meantime, the country’s 1999-2001 average total import value was US$558 million, having grown at an average annual change of 3.82% over the same period. Uganda’s overwhelmingly dominant export product group is food and live animals (e.g., coffee, tea, sugar, fish, etc.), accounting for 72.84% of the total export. Non-oil crude materials (e.g., cotton) come in second with its share accounting for 14.05% of total exports. In addition, exports of these two product groups have increased at a high pace in the past decade. On the other hand, Uganda’s imports are mainly composed of chemicals and manufactured items (SITC 5, 6, 7 and 8). The EU is the largest export market for Uganda, which accounts for 68.91% of the country’s total export. Next to the EU, the Asian market has

come to account for the second highest share of 11.26% as a result of an annualized change of 11.66% in the past decade. On the other hand, Uganda’s main source of imports is Africa, mostly Kenya. The country’s intra-African imports amounted to 38.96% of the country’s total import on the 1999-2001 average. While the EU is the second largest source of import for Uganda with a 31.84% share, the country’s import from Asia has also grown to account for 20.83% of its total import. Trade Regime Uganda is a WTO member. In Africa, Uganda is a member of the COMESA and the EAC, cooperative frameworks in the region. In particular, the EAC, comprising of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, is expected to further tighten already-strong economic relations among these countries. In relation to the EU, the former colonial ties as well as preferential treatments under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention and the EBA initiative seem to have contributed to fostering Uganda’s export towards the EU. In relation to the US, Uganda became eligible for the AGOA in 2000 and its apparel and textile benefits in 2001; however, the US government reports that Uganda’s AGOA-related export has remained insignificant up until today.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 365.1 Overview Zambia’s GDP growth rate fell in the mid-1990s, but recovered towards the end of the 1990s, and reached almost 5% in 2001. In the meantime, the ratio of exports of goods and services to the GDP of Zambia has decreased. It was more than 30% in 1991, but dropped to around 20% in 1999, although it recovered again to 27% in 2001. Trade Structure The 1999-2001 average value of Zambia’s total export to the world was about US$623 million, having declined at an average annual change of -7.66% from the 1990-1992 average. On the other hand, Zambia’s import increased steadily at 2.24% per annum in the same period. Zambia’s major exports are material-based manufactured goods (e.g., copper and other metals), which account for a 75.64% share of the total export. However, the export of this product group declined at 9.99% per annum, causing the decline of the overall export value. On the other hand, export of cobalt, categorized under the SITC 2 group, has registered rapid increase in the same period. On the import side, machinery and equipment is primary products that Zambia imports. Zambia is also dependent on external sources in chemicals and material-based manufactures.

Zambia’s export is highly oriented to Asia and the EU with their shares of 43.75% and 26.10% respectively. However, exports to these destinations have been declining, owing much to the decline of copper export. In contrast, Zambia’s export of cobalt to those two partners as well as the rest of the partners has been increasing. In terms of import, Zambia is highly dependent on Africa, mostly South Africa. Trade Regime Zambia is a member of the WTO as well as regional economic frameworks such as the SADC and COMESA. These regional arrangements have created close economic ties with Southern African countries, particularly South Africa as reflected in Zambia’s high import dependence on the country. As a LDC, Zambia is eligible for LDC initiatives such as the EBA of the EU or LDC preferential tariffs of Japan and other developed countries. Furthermore, Zambia is an AGOA country and eligible for its apparel and textile benefits as well. It is likely that these preferential treatments have contributed to increasing export in some sectors; however, Zambia’s overall export has decreased due to rather internal factor, namely poor production of copper after the privatization of the sector.

Present Value of Debt (% of exports of goods and services) 175.3 Overview Zimbabwe’s economic growth until 1999 had been very much dependent on export growth as the ratio of exports of goods and services to the GDP increased from 22.8% in 1990 to 46% in 1999. However, this ratio started to drop in 1999 and became as low as 21% in 2001. As export decreases, Zimbabwe’s economy has been in recession since 1999 and its GDP growth rate dropped as low as -8.4% in 2001. Trade Structure Zimbabwe’s 1999-2001 average total export volume was valued at about US$1.6 billion. Zimbabwe’s export increased from the early to mid 1990s, but declined again into 2000s. In the same fashion, Zimbabwe’s import climbed up towards the mid 1990s and decreased in recent years. Zimbabwe’s major exports include tobacco, steel, gold, nickel, sugar, cotton, maize and horticulture. Among these main exports, export earnings of such products as tobacco (SITC 121), steel (SITC 671) and nickel (SITC 683) have decreased in recent years; however, such decline has been compensated by increasing export earnings of such products as sugar (SITC 061) and horticulture (SITC 292).

Zimbabwe’s closest trading partner in recent years is South Africa. In particular, Zimbabwe’s import is largely dependent on South Africa. The bilateral relationship has improved since South Africa’s political change in the early 1990s. The EU, especially the UK, is also a major trading partner for Zimbabwe. In addition, Asia has been emerging as Zimbabwe’s important export market. Asia is increasingly importing Zimbabwe’s tobacco as its tobacco exports towards the EU and the US stagnates. Trade Regime Zimbabwe is a member of the WTO as well as regional economic frameworks such as the SADC and COMESA. These regional arrangements have created close economic ties with Southern African countries, presumably contributing to the high share of Africa in Zimbabwe’s exports. In relation to the EU, Zimbabwe has benefited from its preferential quotas for beef and sugar under the Cotonou Agreement, formerly the Lome Convention. Horticultural export has also benefited from duty-free access to the EU market.

Compendium of Country-Specific Analysis of Africa-Asia Trade Complementarity

With an aim at identifying specific products that possess potentials for further expansion in terms of trade between Africa and Asia and the size of such potentials, we employed the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) calculations for Africa’s exports and similar measurements for Asia’s imports. In order to grasp the matching of Africa’s export and Asia’s import compiled these computed data into matrices which indicate the country-by-country matching of Africa-Asia trade on a SITC 4 category basis. First, we estimated the RCA for each African country i for each export product j in the formula described below. Superscript w indicates the world exports of product j. For each African country, we listed up top 30 products by the rankings of RCA in the descending order. These are the products in which African countries have competitive advantages in export.

Second, similar fraction (labeled as RCAM) is computed for each Asian country k for each import product m as below. Those products are the ones in which Asian countries have large import demand.

Then, in order to see the matching of each African country’s products with high RCAs and Asian countries’ demands for those products, Asian countries’ RCAMs and their rankings for each African country’s top 30 products are shown in a matrix for each African country. In each country’s matrix, cells are colored according to the rankings of RCAMs. By doing so, a reader can identify products that have a good matching; that is, products in which African countries have comparative advantages and Asian countries have high demands. In the following pages, RCA/RCAM matrices are shown for each of all the 53 African countries. These matrices will be useful for identifying African countries export products that have high potential needs in the Asian market. Certainly, these matrices themselves provide a good overview of how each African country’s export competitiveness matches Asian countries import needs. In addition, because cells of products with high RCAMs are colored, it is instantly clear that the more colored cells are in the matrix, the higher potentials exist for that African country’s export towards Asia. However, these matrices do not show whether such potentials have materialized or not, or if materialized, to what extent; therefore, these matrices would be more fluent when utilized together with CABs which show the current and near-past patterns and composition of Africa’s export towards
