Presentation Study on UNECA ICSOE 2021 Investing in Eastern Africa.pdfXolaniRadebeRadebe
This document provides an overview of investment opportunities and challenges in Eastern Africa. It summarizes that Eastern Africa has experienced strong economic growth in recent decades but remains heavily reliant on agriculture, natural resources, and a few major exports. Industrialization has been slow. The region attracts relatively little foreign direct investment compared to other developing regions. Key challenges to investment include lack of economic diversification and integration. The document outlines recommendations to boost investment through regional cooperation and improving competitiveness.

This document summarizes expenditure analysis (EA) methods used by PEPFAR to analyze how funds are spent on HIV services. EA involves implementing partners reporting expenditure data by program area, cost category, and region using a standardized template. The data is analyzed to understand spending patterns and identify areas for improved efficiency. Sample results are presented showing expenditures by province and program area. The analysis aims to justify budgets, direct resources to efficient service models, and allow for better decision making.
Lecture 8 - Innovation dynamics in the World EconomyUNU.MERIT
The document discusses innovation dynamics in the world economy. It notes that the world economy has long provided incentives for innovation through markets, specialization of production, and opportunities for catching up. However, the current era features new dynamics like the globalization and decentralization of research. While this brings opportunities through access to knowledge and markets, it also poses challenges for countries in maintaining competitiveness and for developing countries in building capabilities to absorb knowledge. The policy debate often focuses on R&D investment but developing countries face more fundamental questions about which types of innovation best suit their level of development and needs.

This document provides an overview of foreign direct investment (FDI) trends in the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) region from 2008 to 2017. It finds that while global FDI flows declined in 2017, FDI inflows to the COMESA region increased slightly. Egypt and Ethiopia attracted over 60% of total FDI to COMESA in 2017. Several countries saw significant increases or decreases in FDI inflows. The top sectors for FDI varied by country but included petroleum, manufacturing, real estate, and financial services. National policies on investment were also discussed.
We have used a multiple regression model to identify the impacts of the variables of credit risk management on the Nigerian deposit money banks’ performance from 2000 to 2020. The estimation was completed using the ordinary least squares method with E-Views 12. The data was sourced from the Nigerian Stock Exchange for information and the Statistical Bulletin of the Central Bank of Nigeria. The outcome determined that return on equity (ROE) is negatively correlated with the nonperforming loan/loan and advances ratio. Last but not least, the ROE measurements of the deposit money banks in Nigeria show a substantial correlation between the ratios of advances and loans to nonperforming loans, loan loss provision to loans and advances, and capital adequacy. These ratios are positively correlated with each other and negatively correlated with the capital adequacy ratio. We advise effective surveillance of pre- and post-deposit financial institution loans for the early detection of problematic debts that won’t be repaid according to schedule and for the thorough analysis of prospective projects as indicated in the financial statement given by the intended client (cash budget, income statement). Accurate identification of realistic projects and repayment terms based on the customer’s past performance will be achieved.
Nigeria is located in West Africa and has a diverse population and culture. It has a federal government system and economy that was traditionally based on oil exports but is diversifying. Nigeria has bilateral trade relations with China, including Chinese foreign direct investment in Nigeria's agriculture, manufacturing, and telecommunications sectors, and many Nigerians living and working in China who contribute to both countries' economies. Nigerian culture is expressed through clothing, cuisine, dance, masquerades, festivals, and world heritage sites that showcase its environmental and cultural diversity.

Big CInema Data: Analysing global cinema showtimesDeb Verhoeven
Looking at cinema exhibition and distribution at an international scale requires data beyond broad aggregates, it requires data that is specific to individual films and cinema venues in order to appreciate the intricate temporal and geographic aspects of flow and patterns. The Kinomatics Project has tracked the global flow of individual film screenings (down to date and time) for over 54,000 films for 30,000 venues throughout 48 countries internationally.
This presentation will highlight the importance of global scale analysis and data through three case studies. The first will track the spatial and temporal relationships of The Hobbit: an unexpected journey, highlighting the complexities of international cinema enterprises and the subtleties of contemporary releasing strategies. The second explores the relationship between remittance flows and the movement of film around the globe with a focus on Bollywood films. The thrid test dyadic relationships between countries. This presentation will introduce some methods for analysing and visualising data used in the three case studies.
September 2020 - Market Report - Toronto & GTA Housing SalesMichelle Makos
- Sales reported through TRREB's MLS system in September 2020 set a new record for the month at 11,083, up 42.3% from September 2019. The average selling price was $960,772, up 14% year-over-year.
- Year-to-date sales in 2020 were up approximately 1% compared to the same period in 2019, following a record third quarter. However, further economic improvements will be important to support ongoing strong home sales.
- Market conditions tightened in September compared to the previous year, with faster sales growth relative to new listings and double-digit price increases common across the GTA region, resulting in a new record for the overall average selling price.
The Indian equity markets ended the week with gains. The Nifty gained 4.5% and the Sensex gained 4.5% for the week. Top gaining sectors included IT, metals, pharma, and FMCG.

Globally, most markets were up for the week with the Dow Jones gaining 1.44% and the S&P 500 gaining 1.79%.
The Nigerian stock market witnessed a reversal in gains, with the benchmark index falling 0.22%. Two insurance companies, Great Nigeria Insurance and Equity Assurance, reported increases in gross premiums and profits in their quarterly and annual reports. JP Morgan has extended its deadline for potentially removing Nigerian bonds from its emerging market index until the end of the year to allow for increased liquidity in the Nigerian currency market.

In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

QUANTIFYING CHINA’S FINANCIAL REACH UP THROUGH THE PANDEMIC: THE AFRICAN EXPERIENCE

REACH UP THROUGH THE PANDEMIC:
THE AFRICAN EXPERIENCE
Richard C. K. Burdekin, Dawson Reckers and Ran Tao
Claremont McKenna College
EY-Parthenon, San Francisco, California
Lake Forest College and University of Wisconsin, Whitewater
3. Background and Motivation
• In 2009, China replaced the United States as the largest trading
partner to African nations.
• China and major African countries such as Nigeria in 2018 formally
agreed on a currency-swap deal worth billions of dollars
• It is critical to understand spillover effects and differences of
transmission mechanisms between various markets and countries
• Prior work suggests that the rapid growth of the Australia–China trade
partnership helped fuel significant liquidity and inflation transmission
(Burdekin and Tao, 2020).
4. Prior Research
• Guo and Ibhagui (2019) find evidence of cointegration among China
and Africa’s major stock markets. The relationship peaked during the
2008 financial crisis but weakened after the crisis
• Ahmed and Huo (2018) observe spillover effects in terms of both price
movement and volatility behavior, consistent with African stock
markets integrating with the Chinese stock market
• Osabuohien-Irabor (2021) suggests a unidirectional causality both in
mean and variance from the U.S. and Chinese markets to African
capital markets
5. Summary of Main Findings
• We allow for variation across high volatility and low volatility regimes
• We offer some initial evidence on how the pandemic impacted Chinese-
African stock market correlations
• Our overall findings suggest that rising trade connections have been
accompanied by financial connections between the Shanghai Stock
Exchange and eight leading African stock markets

+ 𝑥𝑥𝑡𝑡𝛼𝛼 + 𝑧𝑧𝑡𝑡𝛽𝛽𝑠𝑠𝑡𝑡
+ 𝜀𝜀𝑠𝑠𝑡𝑡,𝑡𝑡
• 𝜇𝜇𝑠𝑠𝑡𝑡
is state-dependent intercept
• 𝑥𝑥𝑡𝑡 is a vector of exogenous variables with state-invariant coefficients 𝛼𝛼
• 𝑧𝑧𝑡𝑡 is a vector of exogenous variables with state-dependent coefficients 𝛽𝛽𝑠𝑠𝑡𝑡
• 𝜀𝜀𝑠𝑠𝑡𝑡,𝑡𝑡 ∼ N (0, 𝜎𝜎𝑠𝑠𝑡𝑡

• The time of transition between regimes and the duration in a particular regime are
both random
25. Conclusions
• Growing trade and investment ties between China and Africa have
been accompanied by significant financial market integration
• Significant effects of the Shanghai Industrial Index persist throughout
• Markov-Switching analysis shows increased intensity of Chinese effects
during periods of higher market volatility
• Evidence of heightened connections following the onset of the
coronavirus pandemic
