With CoP21 fast approaching, and given the fact that developing countries are likely to play a greater role than they did six years ago at CoP15, this was a timely and important topic. Using research from our Growth and Poverty Project to lay out the economic progress Africa has made over the last twenty years, my contribution to the forum served to provide a background against which the other discussions could take place.
Launch of Growth and Poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa BookUNU-WIDER
On 22 April 2016 UNU-WIDER visits the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency to launch the new open access book Growth and Poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa. Resulting from UNU-WIDER’s project on ’Reconciling Africa’s growth, poverty and inequality trends: growth and poverty’— the book provides a comprehensive re-examination of Africa’s growth, poverty and inequality trends. While the economic growth renaissance in sub-Saharan Africa is widely recognized, much less is known about progress in living conditions. This book comprehensively evaluates trends in living conditions in 16 major sub-Saharan African countries, corresponding to nearly 75% of the total population.

Foreword
The global mobilization behind the Millennium
Development Goals has produced the most successful
anti-poverty movement in history. The landmark
commitment entered into by world leaders in the year
2000—to “spare no effort to free our fellow men,
women and children from the abject and dehumanizing
conditions of extreme poverty”—was translated into
an inspiring framework of eight goals and, then, into
wide-ranging practical steps that have enabled people
across the world to improve their lives and their future
prospects. The MDGs helped to lift more than one billion
people out of extreme poverty, to make inroads against
hunger, to enable more girls to attend school than ever
before and to protect our planet. They generated new
and innovative partnerships, galvanized public opinion
and showed the immense value of setting ambitious ...

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

– Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Senegal, Tanzania, Uganda, Tunesia, Cambodia,
Vietnam
– By teams of national and international researchers
• Focus: Why is there so little industry in Africa; does it matter; and what can be done
about it?
• Key message: changes in the global economy offer a window of opportunity – but
business as usual is not enough; only with a more strategic approach to industrial
development and a strong commitment of the region’s political leadership can Africa
industrialize.

22. Summing-Up
• Progress in SSA has been markedly better than most expected 10 or 15 years ago
• Relative to previous periods, macroeconomic management has improved
significantly; a new generation of policy makers and business leaders have entered
the scene; and important gains have been registered in four key areas:
– Overall political stability (more democratic and accountable governments)
– Rates of economic growth
– A large array of non-monetary poverty indicators; and
– Monetary poverty as measured by household consumption
• Commodity prices played a role; yet there is a lot more going on: durable factors of
physical, human and institutional accumulation are at play
23. Summing-Up for 16 Countries: Four Categories
• Relatively rapid economic growth and corresponding poverty reduction:
Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi, Rwanda, and Uganda
• Relatively rapid economic growth and limited poverty reduction:
Burkina Faso, Mozambique, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Zambia
• Uninspiring or negative economic growth with corresponding stagnation
or increasing poverty: Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, Madagascar, and
South Africa
• Low-information countries: DRC
24. Outstanding Challenges and a Thorny Dilemma
• Demographic projections (2015-2050): from 7.3 to 9.7 billion, and Africa’s
population is set to double to 2.5 billion [bigger than both China and India and
Nigeria > US]
• Structural transformation slow
• Jobs and employment creation lagging
• Agriculture and industrialization constrained
• A long walk to prosperity: recall T x G = 69
• In other words: a lot more growth in Africa is needed, which with present
technology will imply a significant contribution to CO2 emissions [Africa uses a lot of
”dirty” coal]
• But the world has changed: Global emission constraints
25. Launching a New Climate Regime
• Henry ‘Jake’ Jacoby’s presentation of the EPPA (Emissions Prediction &
Policy Analysis Model) emissions estimates at UNU-WIDER’s 30th
Anniversary Conference on 19 September 2015

27. UN High-Level Panel report on the post-2015
development agenda
• Calls for:
• “..A quantum leap forward in economic opportunities
and a profound economic transformation to end
extreme poverty and improve livelihoods…”
• How can aid help?
• Aid to social sectors builds human capital BUT being educated
& healthy is not enough

29. From the 2015 MDGs to the 2030 SDGs
• Aid helps economic growth (overall). But to achieve a ‘quantum leap’
it must support:
– Aid to agriculture – slumped & still too low (esp. crop research). IFAD &
AfDB ‘going to scale’
– Structural transformation – industrial policy & don’t just focus on SMEs
(“East Asia’s donors do it better?”)
– Creation of ‘good jobs’ – donors pay too little attention to employment
– fragmented livelihood projects
– Gender equity at scale – rhetoric, but too-small-scale
– Infrastructure – use aid to leverage private capital (e.g. AfDB Africa50
fund). Note climate change challenge
