Aid and Coherence of OECD Country Policies

Denis Cogneau () and Sylvie Lambert

No 24, OECD Development Centre Policy Insights from OECD Publishing

Abstract: Foreign aid flows disproportionately to the poorest among the developing countries. Countries that account for the poorest fifth of world’s population receive more than a fifth of aid spending from OECD countries. Similarly, the benefits of trade flow likewise to more prosperous countries: the poorest countries export very little to the OECD and consequently earn very little in export earnings.
