Por example, under the higher-gror.rth scenariofor tbe period 1990-2000, the external gap is projected as 7.2 per cent of GDP for the deficit econonies, substantially greater than lheir 5.4 per cent internal gap (fron table 29). Thus, the major constraint is lhe avaiLability of foreignresources. However, over the next five years, 1986-1990, the external balance of the deficit countries is projected at 4.1 per cent in 1990, conpared with aninternal gap of 6.4 per cenE. ?o understand tbe reverBal-, it is necessary. to
analysis: The text appears to discuss the economic development of countries with a focus on their internal and external balances, specifically highlighting the challenge of accessing foreign resources for developing economies. The language used is technical and refers to concepts such as gross national saving, gross capital formation, and external gaps, suggesting a strong emphasis on economic development.
