“Africa will never be able <strong>to</strong> tradecompetitively – it needs <strong>to</strong> be moreintegrated, with larger economic spaces.Goods and services must move moreeasily; infrastructure must facilitate, notfrustrate trade; institutions must besupportive and effective. Withoutintegration, the continent will remaindisjointed with many small, shallowmarkets that are uncompetitive on theirown and unattractive ti <strong>to</strong> inves<strong>to</strong>rs”RADSReport of the High Level Panel“Investing in Africa’s Future: The ADB in the 21 st Century”<strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> <strong>African</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong>


RADS 4.Africa:Start from what we are!1. <strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> exporter ofminerals/metals (oil & gas, gold, coal, ironore & ferro-alloys, bauxite/aluminium,copper, diamonds, etc.);2. <strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong>exporter of agri & agri-<strong>based</strong> commodities (cocoa, cot<strong>to</strong>n, fruit &juices, sugar, grains, wood & paper/pulp,wool, meat, fish, etc.);3. Insignificant exporter of manufacturedgoods; and4. Very weak HR base (skills) except for a fewniche competencies.<strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> <strong>African</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong>


RADSAfrica’s Natural <strong>Resource</strong>s• Agriculture– Contributes 40% of <strong>African</strong> GDP % provides livelihood for 60% ofpopulation, but largest user of scarce water– Enormous unrealised potential (low yields & only x% undercultivation)– But, agri-commodities exported without processing(beneficiation)i i • Minerals– World’s <strong>to</strong>p producer of numerous mineral commodities;– Has world’s greatest resources of many more;– Africa lacks systematic geo-survey: could be > resources;– But exported as ores, concs, metals: Need > beneficiation.• Energy– Significant fossil fuels (oil, gas and coal)– Large biomass and bio-fuels potential (ethanol, bio-diesel)– Massive hydro-electric potential (Inga 45GW, Congo River200GW)• Forestry– 22% of <strong>African</strong> land is forested (650m hectares= 17% of world<strong>to</strong>tal);– Deforestation: Africa’s net change highest globally = -0.78% p.a;– Huge silviculture potential, but exported as logs/chips: need >bene.• Fishing– Decline in catch rate (international poaching! over-harvesting);– 68% of marine protected areas under threat;<strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> – Aquaculture/mariculture <strong>African</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong> still nascent (large potential)Tourism

Investment in Geo-knowledgeRADS• Numerous studies (USGS, W.Australia) havedefinitively showed the extremely high return <strong>to</strong> thestate from investment in geo-survey (~1:10investment <strong>to</strong> return ratio <strong>to</strong> the fiscus)• In general, the lower the geo-info base, the higherthe risk, the lower the share of resource rents <strong>to</strong>the state: The less a state knows about the value ofits mineral assets, the worse the deal it’s likely <strong>to</strong> beable <strong>to</strong> negotiate with foreign inves<strong>to</strong>rs.• This will inevitably compromise the longer termsustainability of the investment: An unequalextractive deal serves neither the inves<strong>to</strong>r nor thehost state over the longer term• Investment in<strong>to</strong> <strong>African</strong> infrastructure shouldnot only target t physical infrastructure t but alsoknowledge infrastructure (geo-survey)<strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> <strong>African</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong>


The foreign resource capital “trade-off”In order <strong>to</strong> rapidly acquire the requisite capital and skills,<strong>African</strong> states have generally opted <strong>to</strong> realise their resourceendowments through attracting foreign resource companies(TNCs & JRCs), rather than mainly relying on domestic capital.However, this “trade-off” comes with several possible “threats”:1.TNCs often have global purchasing departments which are lesslikely <strong>to</strong> develop local suppliers (linkages), than would be thecase with domestic resource companies;2.TNCs tend <strong>to</strong> optimise their global processing g( (beneficiation)facilities which often denies the resource state theirdownstream opportunities;3.TNCs generally tend <strong>to</strong> locate the tech development (R&D) inOECD countries, with the requisite skills and incentives, therebydenying Africa the development of this critical side-stream streamcapacity;4.TNCs also tend <strong>to</strong> locate their high level HRD in OECD countries(often linked <strong>to</strong> their R&D university it partners), which h could deny<strong>African</strong> states the development of this seminal capacity;5.In the longer term there are clearly political downsides <strong>to</strong> aresource sec<strong>to</strong>r dominated by foreign capital;6.Finally RADSthere is the TNC “core competence” conundrum.7.However, all of these threats can be overcome or amelioratedthrough <strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> appropriate <strong>African</strong> actions, <strong>Development</strong> policies <strong>Strategy</strong>and interventions!


RADSFacilitation of up- and down-stream linkages1. Access <strong>to</strong> competitively priced feeds<strong>to</strong>cks: Downstream: restric<strong>to</strong>re & concentrate exports? Upstream: Capital goods- steel andspecial steels (poss. for regional iron/steel production facilities);2. Access <strong>to</strong> concessionary capital: DFIs: local, regional &continental (AfDB). Venture capital funds (PPPs with TNCs?);3. Competitive currency (forex rate): Ameliorate the Dutch Diseaseby keeping windfall rents offshore and committing <strong>to</strong> long termphysical & social infrastructure (drip-feed back in<strong>to</strong> economy)?4. Access <strong>to</strong> requisite skills: HRD- dedicated institutions, JV’sbetween local and foreign Universities. Short-term skills import,but with men<strong>to</strong>rships. TNC HR “indigenisation” programmes,<strong>Strategy</strong> <strong>to</strong> repatriate the huge <strong>African</strong> skills “diaspora”?5. Access <strong>to</strong> supply contracts: t <strong>Partnership</strong> with TNCs onadjudication of all tenders (ensure that equitable access for localsuppliers). Judicious use of tariffs for infant industries. Ensureforeign supplier localisation (JVs with local capital?) & techtransfer. Local content miles<strong>to</strong>nes?6. Access <strong>to</strong> technology: Establish resources up- and down-streamresearch facilities with TNCs (R&D PPPs) and use of resourcerents for R&D;7. Infrastructure: Establish world-class infrastructure (transport,energy, water, telecoms, etc.) for upstream and downstreamindustrial clusters (specialised “industrial development zones”).<strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> <strong>African</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong>


Growing <strong>African</strong> JRCs• The bulk of JRCs (Junior <strong>Resource</strong> Companies) operatingin Africa are from Europe and its settler colonies (Canada,US, Oz) which poses problems of political sustainability;• Need <strong>to</strong> facilitate the growth of indigenous explorationcompanies (JRCs) <strong>to</strong> build local buy-in & legitimacy;• Possible PRC-<strong>African</strong> JRC exploration partnerships?• Soquem (mineral DFI) in Canada successfully facilitatedthe growth of French-speaking JRCs in Quebec from1965, by identifying potential targets and taking up <strong>to</strong> 49%of the risk/equity- AfDB could establish an <strong>African</strong> Soquem<strong>to</strong> share risk and nurture local l participation i in mineraldevelopment?• Possible first sight (3 months?) on all new geo-surveydata?• National DFIs should also target indigenous investmentin<strong>to</strong> the mining inputs (supplier) sec<strong>to</strong>r;RADS Predominantly foreign mineral DFI isultimately politically unsustainable!<strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> <strong>African</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong>

RADSTHE DC APPROACH:What value does it add?• Addresses the urgent need for effectiveinvestment & capacity prioritisation <strong>based</strong>on sound economic rationale;• Links and synchronises private sec<strong>to</strong>reconomic investment project opportunitieswith key infrastructure t projects;• Promotes the realisation of widerdevelopment potential (densification)catalysed by infrastructure provision andanchor investments;• Provides spatial focus for strategies <strong>to</strong>promote regional economic integration &development.• However, it is only one component of anintegrated growth & development strategy!(focus on “low-hanginghanging-fruit” <strong>to</strong> catalysed l )<strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> <strong>African</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong>


Underlying DC DriversRADSDue <strong>to</strong> the global market dis<strong>to</strong>rtion of FirstWorld agri-subsidies (Doha), mineral-<strong>based</strong>opportunities are generally the only ones withrequisite rents <strong>to</strong> pay for the provision ofcostly infrastructure (transport & energy).For this reason the indicative DCs (SDP)“anchor” projects tend <strong>to</strong> be minerals/energy<strong>based</strong> which establish infrastructure <strong>to</strong>underpin the viability of projects in other,sustainable, sec<strong>to</strong>rs: “densification”).However, the DC methodology goes beyondthe “colonial” paradigm (resources <strong>to</strong> coast)<strong>to</strong> integrated growth & development usingresources <strong>Resource</strong>-<strong>based</strong> <strong>African</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>Development</strong> catalyze <strong>Strategy</strong>the process
