Implementing Trade Logistics Reforms in Complex Multi-Country and Regional Settings
Trade facilitation connects economies
and provides opportunities for business growth. However, the
national agencies involved in trade often have different
objectives, lack coordination with peer agencies in other
countries because of different national priorities, high
workloads, and absence of platforms to consult with each
other. Such a divergence of interests is a challenge when
the goal is to address, and seek consensus on, trade issues
on the regional level, while undertaking capacity building
and reform activities at the country level, all with the
objective to benefit the private sector. The International
Finance Corporation (IFC) Western Balkans trade logistics
project faced this challenge. In addition, the project was
constrained by limited financial resources, so marrying
effectiveness and efficiency was key to achieving results.
This smart lesson summarizes lessons learned from the
project implementation.
