This publication is the theme study for the 73rd session of Commission to be held in May 2017. The main purpose of the publication is to call on policymakers in Asia and the Pacific for urgent actions to transition national energy sectors to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), particularly Goal 7. The energy sector transition is the only way to address the sizeable energy deficit which impede progress in energy access in a number of member countries. It will also address gaps between current commitments under the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Paris Agreement on climate change and lack of coherent energy strategic and policy frameworks and actions held back progress of SDG7.

This book brings together a unique team of academics and practitioners to analyse interests, institutions, and issues affecting and affected by the transition from Asia-Pacific to Indo-Pacific. The Indo-Pacific has emerged as the world’s economic and strategic centre of gravity, in which established and rising powers compete with each other. As a strategic space, the Indo-Pacific reflects the rise of geo-political and geo-economic designs and dynamics which have come to shape the region in the early twenty-first century. These new dynamics contrast with the (neo-)liberal ideas and the seemingly increasing globalisation for which the once dominant ‘Asia-Pacific’ regional label stood.

Part I of this report assesses trends and developments in regional trade and investment flows and policies in an attempt to provide the insights and information necessary to separate the cyclical from the structural aspects. Part II analyses the participation of Asia-Pacific economies in global and regional value chains. By observing how economies at different levels of development have integrated into supply chains at different speeds and to varying extents, we can cast light on those policies that influence and shape value chain participation, and hence influence future patterns of trade and investment. The particular features of participation in value chains also have an impact on the ability of countries to access foreign technology and build innovative capacity, which in turn influences structural change and future development options.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), including start-ups and microenterprises, have emerged as an engine of growth for most of the countries in Asia and the Pacific. Their contributions are well-known; they increase production and exports, generate employment and facilitate income growth amongst the population. SMEs serve as a seedbed for enterprise development. Each country has evolved its own policies, institutional framework and support mechanisms for SMEs according to its needs, stage of economic development and culture. The experience of each one of them is unique. Developing a policy guidebook for SME development in the developing countries of the Asia-Pacific region has been a daunting task, when the variety of experiences and the varied policies and programmes of each country are taken into consideration. This book documents specific policy guidelines based on various countries' strategies, their best practices and their applicability in the context of development of SMEs in Asia and the Pacific in addition to the vast experience and expertise of the contributors, researchers and authors of the publication. Many countries as well as various multilateral and bilateral development agencies have implemented a variety of interventions in Asia and the Pacific in line with their SME development strategies, typically in the following key areas: (a) Business environment, including policy and regulatory framework and infrastructure development; (b) Entrepreneurship; (c) Financing; (d) Business development services; (e) Innovation and technology; and (f) Market access. Their interventions typically use several modalities to address the key issues, including policy advocacy, institutional capacity building, human resource development and direct support to enterprises. This comprehensive review of the SME policies and programmes in Asia and the Pacific demonstrates that the nations of the region appreciate the importance of SME development. The SME sector in many countries in the region suffers from numerous threats and challenges that necessitate a proactive approach from policymakers. National governments and various stakeholders in charge of policy planning would do well to recognize not only the threats and challenges, but also the changing needs of SMEs. In this regard, the following useful guidelines are identified for effective policymaking: (a) The reduction of entry barriers (and thus costs) for new businesses; (b) The importance of cash flow to SMEs -- the major reason most new and small businesses fail is not a lack of profits but a lack of cash; (c) The strengthening of entrepreneurship through training and education; and (d) The strengthening of networking and information dissemination, given the fact that a lack of networks and information hinders effective deployment of technology and business development services as well as collaboration with other firms. This publication should provide the basis for deliberations on policy formulation for SME development in Asia and the Pacific, developing and refining the institutional framework based on intercountry experiences. Implementation of policy options and their appropriate selection, based on key factors, is highlighted. The book may also serve as a training manual for entrepreneurs, educators and business associations, such as chambers of commerce and industry, for building up the capacity of SMEs.

The claim that open trade promotes peace has sparked heated debate among scholars and policymakers for centuries. Until recently, however, this claim remained untested and largely unexplored. Economic Interdependence and International Conflict clarifies the state of current knowledge about the effects of foreign commerce on political-military relations and identifies the avenues of new research needed to improve our understanding of this relationship. The contributions to this volume offer crucial insights into the political economy of national security, the causes of war, and the politics of global economic relations. Edward D. Mansfield is Hum Rosen Professor of Political Science and Co-Director of the Christopher H. Browne Center for International Politics at the University of Pennsylvania. Brian M. Pollins is Associate Professor of Political Science at Ohio State University and a Research Fellow at the Mershon Center.

Developing countries need additional, cross-border capital channeled into their private sectors to generate employment and growth, reduce poverty, and meet the other Millennium Development Goals. Innovative financing mechanisms are necessary to make this happen. 'Innovative Financing for Development' is the first book on this subject that uses a market-based approach. It compiles pioneering methods of raising development finance including securitization of future flow receivables, diaspora bonds, and GDP-indexed bonds. It also highlights the role of shadow sovereign ratings in facilitating access to international capital markets. It argues that poor countries, especially those in Sub-Saharan Africa, can potentially raise tens of billions of dollars annually through these instruments. The chapters in the book focus on the structures of the various innovative financing mechanisms, their track records and potential for tapping international capital markets, the constraints limiting their use, and policy measures that governments and international institutions can implement to alleviate these constraints.
