For further reading on this topic I would highly recommend the book “The Divide” by Jason Hickle. In this book he shows how the trade rules and international trade organizations are set up in an extractive way, and how more money flows out from Africa to Western countries than the other way around. I think changing the ways the global economic organizations see development, and opening for more policy flexibility for low-income countries is something that can make a huge difference in development efforts long-term.

Was going to say that! Its incredible how we give little attention to cash flows and how every proposition to change it is being shut down.
