On October 24, the Hinrich Foundation and IMD held a launch event for the 2024 Sustainable Trade Index (STI), with experts discussing how industrial policy impacts resilience in global trade. Moderated by Chuin Wei Yap, the session brought together experts Christos Cabolis, Simon Evenett, and Deborah Elms. Here are some key takeaways: 1. A growing alignment between industrial policy and resilience The rollout of trade-distorting industrial policies has surged over the past decade. Christos Cabolis emphasized that resilience in green energy demands foresight from both public and business decision-makers. 2. Learning lessons from the past Simon Evenett highlighted the importance of setting clear policy goals based on lessons from past policies. 3. Identifying trade-offs Deborah Elms pointed out the necessity of recognizing trade-offs when implementing industrial policies. 4. Subsidies and overcapacity Panelists noted that data-driven approaches are important for policy design and that some measurements are captured in the STI.

It is estimated that #Africa accounts for about 7% of China’s overseas direct investment projects, but closer scrutiny suggests this may be significantly overstated. Senior Research Fellow Stewart Paterson uncovers in a parsing of #fDi Markets #data: https://buff.ly/40aeYt7 Also read: China's #BeltandRoad Initiative is a cornerstone of Beijing's path to 'national rejuvenation'. How effective has the initiative been in helping China achieve its strategic goals? Stewart Paterson assesses: https://buff.ly/48cQb9P Don't miss: Africa's capacity to determine its own ascent in the world order has been overlooked for far too long. But this is changing rapidly.

1/ Changes in #India’s approach toward #FDI are bearing fruit and may bear more in the future as global #supplychains continue to reconfigure. To attract more investors, India must further open its economy, Michael Enright writes: https://buff.ly/3BMLver 2/ Some key discussion points: India has long had a complex relationship with FDI given a colonial past that resulted in skepticism about the benefits of foreign investment. After decades of being mostly closed to foreign investments, India began to open its economy in 1991. See Figure 1: https://buff.ly/4dVaOs8 3/ FDI inflows in India grew from US$15 billion for the 1990-1999 period to US$161 billion for 2000-2009 and US$372 billion for 2010-2019. The #GDP impact of foreign affiliates in India went from 10.5% of GDP in 2010 to 21.8% of a much larger GDP in 2021. See Figure 2: https://buff.ly/3YymKf9 4/ Despite these increases, India still lags behind most other countries when it comes to the FDI intensity of its economy, with an FDI stock-to-GDP ratio of only a third of the median economy in the @UNCTAD FDI database, and an FDI intensity rank of 179 of 199 economies in 2022. See Figure 3: https://buff.ly/3Ywm61v 5/ In the past decade, the impact on India’s GDP of US affiliates operating in India has been as much as 250 times the annual FDI inflow from the US. The impact of all foreign investment has ranged from 6 times to more than 15 times the annual FDI inflow. See Figure 8: https://buff.ly/4e1TilX 6/ In addition to improving its business operating environment, India must continue to develop its physical #infrastructure and #workforce capabilities to draw in and retain both local and foreign #investments.
