One critical determinant of the ability of LDCs to improve their productive capacity and competitiveness is availability of investible resources. There is therefore a need to identify forms of action by Governments and the private sector in LDCs, and to delineate areas of intervention by the international community, that would enable LDCs to secure sufficient levels of development finance. Such measures would seek to raise levels of domestic savings, increase export earnings and enhance the inflow of both official and private external resources. Action is also needed to ease the LDCs’ debt burden.
