Developed-Country Policies

Abstract

In the 1990s mixed developments in the external environment affected developing countries’ trade. On the one hand developed countries’ GDP, an important determinant of the overall demand for developing-country exports, increased at a slightly lower rate than the long-term growth trends in these countries — just under 2.0 per cent for 1990-99 compared with 2.2 per cent in the 1980s and 3.0 per cent in the 1970s (OECD, 2000). On the other hand, the market access conditions for developing countries improved, partly as a result of standstills and subsequent liberalization linked to the Uruguay Round agreements and reductions in tariffs following the information technology agreement.
