Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates and explains tied aid practices among U.S. competitors. The author's research, based on data from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, reveals that U.S. exporters lose out on billions of dollars annually due to these practices. Tied aid often takes the form of loans or grants from one country to another, with the stipulation that the recipient country must purchase goods or services from the donor country. The author argues that this practice distorts trade, providing unfair advantages to the practitioners. The author presents evidence that tied aid is most common in the highly competitive areas of telecommunications, power generation, and transportation. According to the author, the loss of a first sale in these sectors can lead to a loss of future and follow-on sales sometimes worth millions or even billions of dollars. The author also discusses the concept of "untied aid," which is aid that is not tied to the purchase of specific goods or services. The author expresses concern that untied aid may have the same effect as tied aid, as it can still be used to influence the recipient country's purchasing decisions. The author concludes that tied aid practices are a significant problem that the U.S. government needs to address. The author urges the U.S. government to take a more aggressive approach to negotiating with other countries to eliminate tied aid.
