| Abstract: | Economic policy has many regional implications. The direct interregional income transfers and alterations of economic structures impact the country's regional economic development profile. This is particularly pronounced if the economic activities are geographically concentrated. The Ghana evidence suggests that economic development has been concentrated through two avenues; the one is the fiscal transfers to cocoa cultivation and mining areas and the relatively heavy presence of public amenities in the cities. |
