Lignes directrices pour la collecte de données sur les mesures non tarifaires officielles: Édition de 2023
Au cours des dernières décennies les négociations commerciales multilatérales et régionales et la libéralisation unilatérale ont permis de réduire fortement les taux de droits de douane. Les mesures non tarifaires (MNT) constituent à l’opposé un défi croissant pour les exportateurs et les décideurs. La possibilité d’obtenir l’accès à un marché et d’en tirer profit est toujours plus conditionnée par le respect de mesures réglementaires liées au commerce telles que les exigences sanitaires et les normes relatives aux marchandises. La Conférence des Nations Unies sur le commerce et le développement (CNUCED) a pris une part active aux recherches et aux activités consacrées aux questions liées aux mesures non tarifaires.

Rapport sur la gouvernance économique I: Architecture institutionnelle pour lutter contre les flux financiers illicites
Ce premier Rapport sur la gouvernance économique évalue l’architecture institutionnelle préconisée par les gouvernements africains pour bloquer les flux financiers illicites (FFI) et recommande des initiatives pour la renforcer. Les conclusions du rapport indiquent que les FFI continuent de prospérer alors même que les pays africains ont essayé d’établir des cadres institutionnels conçus pour les combattre. Les FFI ont pour causes la corruption le blanchiment d’argent la surfacturation ou sous-facturation des échanges commerciaux pour transférer des fonds de manière illicite ainsi que la fraude fiscale (y compris l’évasion fiscale des entreprises). Le rapport encourage une plus grande collaboration entre les administrations publiques la coordination des rapports financiers la suppression des mandats faisant double emploi et un soutien politique constant aux réformes institutionnelles visant à lutter contre le phénomène. Le rapport suggère que les pays africains qui sont parties aux conventions internationales sur la corruption appliquent pleinement et alignent toutes les lois nationales régissant les organes de lutte contre la corruption. Les lois anti-corruption devraient viser expressément les FFI. Les pays africains doivent également renforcer les pouvoirs et l'indépendance des organes de lutte contre la corruption afin de s'attaquer efficacement à la corruption au blanchiment d'argent aux FFI liés au commerce et aux FFI à motivation fiscale. Ils doivent intégrer des systèmes de données dans tous les circuits économiques - banques centrales autorités douanières autres autorités fiscales registres des sociétés commissions boursières et institutions financières commerciales et non bancaires - afin de faciliter le suivi des transactions de corruption et des mouvements des produits de la corruption.
Economic Governance Report I: Institutional Architecture to Address Illicit Financial Flows
This premier Economic Governance Report (EGR I) assesses the institutional architecture pledged by African governments for blocking illicit financial flows (IFFs) and recommends initiatives to strengthen it. The report’s findings indicate that IFFs continue to thrive though African countries have tried to establish dedicated institutional frameworks for combatting them. The IFFs include corruption money laundering trade mis-invoicing to move money illicitly and tax fraud (including corporate tax dodging). The report encourages more inter-agency collaboration coordinated reporting the removal of duplicated and competing mandates and consistent political support for institutional reforms to combat IFFs. The report suggested that the African countries that are parties to international conventions on corruption should fully implement and align all national laws governing anti-corruption agencies. Anti-corruption laws should expressly cover IFFs. African countries should also strengthen the powers and independence of anti-corruption agencies to effectively address corruption money laundering trade-related IFFs and tax-motivated IFFs. They should integrate data systems across all economic channels—central banks customs authorities other tax authorities registries of companies security exchange commissions and commercial and non-banking financial institutions—to support tracking of corrupt transactions and the movement of corrupt proceeds.
Contribution to the “Space2030” Agenda
EU Space -Supporting a World of 8 Billion People

The present report has been conceived within the cooperation agreement signed between UNOOSA and EUSPA with the goal of promoting how the use of space technology data and services can contribute to achieving sustainable development in the context of an 8 billion world and how the “Space2030” Agenda establishes the priorities of Member States for the space community.
Economic Governance Report II: A Framework for Assessing and Reporting Tax Expenditures in Africa
The focus of this issue of the Economic Governance Report (EGR II) is on tax expenditures where governments provide allowances to potential taxpayers that reduce the effective tax base and actual tax revenues collected. The revenue lost through tax expenditures could have been more judiciously allocated among the country’s different development priorities under prudent oversight ensuring that no one is left behind. This report provides a framework for the effective governance of tax expenditures including the assessment of the fiscal costs of tax expenditures and reporting. The framework has the potential to inform government consideration of the value-for-money propositions of the expenditures and to result in expunging unproductive incentives thereby boosting revenue collection. It can also contribute to boosting the continent’s domestic resource mobilization reducing its vulnerability to debt and volatile external financing and improve the prospects of meeting its development goals.

The Way Forward - 10 Years of Achievement 2005-2015
Exploring Space Technologies for Sustainable Development
From astronomy and aerospace engineering to satellite Earth observation space sciences and technologies have the potential to contribute both directly and indirectly to Sustainable Development. This publication highlights such opportunities proposing science technology and innovation (STI) policy options for harnessing space-enabled technologies – and the real-time information and time-series data they provide – to deliver and monitor progress on key Sustainable Development Goals. The role of regional and international research collaboration in support of these efforts is also discussed here as the achievement of ambitious global goals within widely differing local contexts requires the combination of space capabilities with detailed local knowledge. Global collaboration offers great potential to contribute to this process providing opportunities to create new knowledge and diffuse existing knowledge for increased impact.

Voluntary Peer Review of Competition Law and Policy - Paraguay
The review evaluates Paraguay's competition system examining its legal framework and practical application of competition law. It analyzes the current situation based on extensive research and expert opinions gathered during a visit to Asuncion in October 2022. This includes a review of constitutional text competition laws regulations and decisions by the Competition Agency (Conacom). Despite having a competition law for 10 years enforcement faces challenges due to resource constraints. Conacom has investigated few cases of restrictive practices and abuses of dominant position consistently rejecting accusations by the Investigation Directorate. Sanctions lack deterrence capped at 150% of profits or 20% of sales potentially leading to minimal penalties. Moreover the absence of an immunity and leniency program is a major shortcoming in Paraguay's competition enforcement and advocacy efforts.
