Abstract

Research Originality: Using the data of export diversification index which is excluded in previous studies and most the pervious only look at the relationship between ED and GDP, excluding per capita income as basics for development. Again, previous studies results are contradictory on impact of export diversification performance. Additionally, this paper provides robust empirical evidence of a positive effect of export diversification on per capita income growth.Research Objectives: This paper has the objective to examines how export diversification (ED) increase economic growth and per capita income.Research Methods: The paper achieve its objectives using, panel least technique and co-integration test are used on time series data of 1984-2022 for ECOWAS states.Empirical Results: The paper shows that the export diversification index has a significant influence on GDP growth but inverse, however, manufacturing value-added shows weak but a positive influence on the growth per capita income. Again, the paper reveals that high skewness of ECOWAS region to primary products export which could be responsible for the low growth per capita income. The finding of this is not the volume of exported products that matters, but how dynamic is exported products.Implications: The paper therefore recommends ECOWAS countries need to develop processing capability for export that comes from endogenous sufficiency.JEL Classification: C23, F10, O47, O55

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of trade facilitation policies on intra-manufacturing exports among ECOWAS member states. Utilizing the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) linear model, this research analyzes data from 2015–2020 for the ECOWAS member states. The findings reveal that trade facilitation policies in the ECOWAS region fall below the global average. This discrepancy is primarily due to the extensive bureaucratic processes in the region, leading to increased costs for exporting and importing goods. Consequently, there is a significant need for trade facilitation to enhance intra-manufacturing exports within ECOWAS. Based on these insights, the study recommends several policy interventions to improve trade flow and bolster intra-manufacturing exports in the ECOWAS region. These include a stronger commitment to trade agreements among ECOWAS member states, the adoption of information and communication technology (ICT) to streamline trade processes and reduce bureaucratic delays associated with document processing for exports and imports, the strengthening of institutional frameworks within the member states, and the formulation of policies aimed at increasing industrialization levels to enhance manufacturing exports throughout the ECOWAS region.
