Somalia Needs To Provide Economic Facts To Investors

[DR OSMAN]

Im sick of this nonsensical 'trade fairs' happening everywhere, the investor world doesn't operate like 'Somalis' where they see someone doing something and they copy it, that leads to something called 'saturation' and it's well known money doesn't develop in such conditions. Only Somalis follow such pathetic models of investment not the rest of the world. Infact most investors want to know what others are not doing so they can own the 'market share' not 'copy' like Somalis do.

We need the following data provided as a bare minimum to look even barely competent.

1. GDP data on existing industry, current players, current markets(local or global), historical data from each year since the beginning of these industries and their 'daily/monthly/quarterly/yearly' fiscal growth as a 'whole'. Same model needs to be applied if it's a new industry

2. We need 'taxation' rate provided and the govt model of increases/decreases so investors can calculate predictions(over 5 years)

3. Inflation rate on the market, historically up untill today and future inflation rate predictions

4. Recurring Operating costs(labor, energy, transport, shipping) per 'unit' such as 'kw per hour' and also '1 F/T or P/T human resource costs'

5. Investment capital needed for a business venture in terms of land, construction, and operational equipment

6. Local and Global industry market share and where the investor can measure if they can produce their goods with less overheads then other players.

Their is a 'global cap' yearly on each industry production to match global demand, it's critical the govt studies the 'global' markets production value and doing those above calculations and presenting it to investors.

If the global market is only worth a 'few billions' and the global players exceed in the hundreds, do u honestly think any investor will bother with such market constraints, that's why agriculture is the worst industry, even unskilled ppl are 'factor' in it's value chain. Investors want niche higher skills industry as this pool excludes unskilled.

Dr Osman suggests to Somali economists, pls develop a market quality assurance agency, their no point putting money/effort/time into something that isn't inspected to ensure their is quality, customers do not return back if quality is low, so it's not a long-term strategy.

I also suggest we compare our industries to first world, second world, third world industry players. We need to scan each industry for it's performance value and creating our own 'matrix' using the data we retrieved.

The best method for Somali economist is to measure 'final product value' on their intended investment, break down the supply/value-chain actors involved(energy, taxes, labor costs, transport) and how much they will consume from the final product value, each unit and include 'investment capital' recoup units into the calculation against the local/global demand.
