Classification of beneficiary countries by development index The development index represents each country’s overall level of industrial development compared with that of the European Union. It is based on the following formula, which combines per capita income with the level of manufactured exports: {log[(Yi/POPi)/(Yue/POPue)]+log[Xi/Xue]} 2 in which: Y Yue = the beneficiary country’s income, = the European Union’s income, POPi = the beneficiary country’s population, POPue = the population of the European Union, Xi Xue = the value of the beneficiary country’s manufactured exports, = the value of the European Union’s manufactured exports. Using this formula, an index of 0 means the beneficiary’s level of industrial developments is equal to that of the European Union. Figures for income and population are taken from World Bank statistics (World Development Report 1993) and those for manufactured exports from the Unctad Handbook of International Trade and Development Statistics (1992). II. Classification of beneficiary countries by relative sectoral specialisation index A beneficiary country’s specialisation index is derived from the relationship between the proportion of imports in a determined sector coming from this country within the total amount of Community imports in this sector, on the one hand, and on the other hand, this country’s share of the total Community imports. III. Combining the development and specialisation indexes The combination of these two indexes determines how Article 3 will be applied to each beneficiary country. For countries with a development index greater than −1, Article 3 will apply when the specialisation index equals or exceeds 1. For countries with a development index between −1 and −1,23, Article 3 will apply when the specialisation index equals or exceeds 1,5. For countries with a development index between −1,23 and −1,70, Article 3 will apply when the specialisation index equals or exceeds 5. For countries with a development index between −1,70 and −2, Article 3 will apply when the specialisation index equals or exceeds 7. Article 3 will not apply to countries with a development index of less than −2.
