This Economic Paper presents the first analyses of the use and
effectiveness of Aid for Trade (AfT), the initiative to help developing
countries boost their involvement in the global economy, for small
and vulnerable economies (SVEs). It examines in detail the extent to
which SVEs have been able to access AfT funds and to what extent this assistance has helped them to improve their trade performance.
Well designed trade-related assistance will help SVEs face the challenges posed by their characteristics, particularly when the prospects for small states have been deteriorating further due to preference erosion and the emergence of new and large competitors.

1. Background and motivation
2. The rationale behind aid for trade in SVEs
3. How SVEs can access aid for trade
4. Patterns of aid for trade
5. How aid for trade could help SVEs integrate in the global economy
6. Empirical analysis on the effects of aid for trade on SVEs
7. Conclusions and policy implications
