| The publication presents an analysis on trade and investment complementarities among the South-western Member Countries of ESCAP, which are also members of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO), and Armenia. Formed in 1985 as a forum for cooperation and trade, the ECO has grown to add seven new members (Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan) to the founding ones (Islamic Republic of Iran, Pakistan and Turkey). It describes the physical facilities and infrastructures now in place in the region, and reviews trade and investment policies and practices at the national level. It examines the constraints on further expansion of trade and investment, and tries to identify how trade and investment complementarities could be enhanced through the development of soft infrastructure, focusing on information and electronic commerce interchange.
The publication contains papers presented at the seminar on Trade and Investment Information Networking in the South-western Subregion, held in Teheran, Islamic Republic of Iran, in February 1999. |
