Mauritius Dynamising Export Competitiveness, No 33

This paper analyses the attempt by Mauritius to replicate the export success of the East Asia "Tiger Economies" by adapting outward-oriented trade and investment strategies. It reviews Mauritius' competitive strengths and weaknesses at the national and enterprise level: its policies for trade, industry, foreign investment, industrial technology, human capital and EPZ infrastructure, and provides a detailed strategy for sustaining future export competitiveness. The Mauritius experience offers valuable lessons for other developing and transition economies.Lall, Sanjaya is the author of 'Mauritius Dynamising Export Competitiveness, No 33' with ISBN 9780850925340 and ISBN 0850925347.
