The general objectives of a DTIS are: (i) to assist the government in mainstreaming trade and competitiveness in the country’s overall development strategy; (ii) to provide a diagnostic and analytical tool to prioritize and sequence key reforms in the area of trade and competitiveness; and (iii) to provide a platform for development partners to coordinate action and align trade related assistance with government priorities. This DTIS has identified a number of domestic and external constraints facing Myanmar as it strives to leverage regional and global integration for inclusive, export-led growth. Based on this, the current report provides analytical input on the linkages between trade and poverty, and highlights key steps to remove bottlenecks in terms of trade policy and trade facilitation. 2016-07-12T16:52:36Z 2016-07-12T16:52:36Z 2016-06-30 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2016/07/26549462/myanmar-diagnostic-trade-integration-study-dtis-opening-business-vol-2-executive-summary http://hdl.handle.net/10986/24665 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Foreign Trade, FDI, and Capital Flows Study Economic & Sector Work East Asia and Pacific Myanmar
