This Issues Note first establishes how much financing will be required to achieve the required investment rate. It then traces historical trends in the flows from various sources of finance, both domestic and external. The aim of this Issues Note is to review the mix of actions necessary to finance the developmental goals of Africa and to present policy options for the consideration of African Finance Ministers. This Issues Note focuses on measures to increase domestic savings and channel it efficiently into productive investment, switch domestic resources from external debt service to development, increase the effectiveness of OOA, attract private capital flows, encourage foreign direct investment and stem capital flight. This Issues Note argues that while it is essential to mobilize all domestic resources to reduce the resource gap, this will only be feasible in the long term.
