could help to formulate common African strategies. Bottleneck 6: infrastructure Under-developed Concept Infrastructure is critical for any economic activity.133 Indeed, while the previous section has laid out some of the governance challenges to the private sector, infrastructure is the central practical challenge. As Jacqui Kew has noted: ‗Something like deteriorating transport and lack of electricity will do more harm to entrepreneurial activity than almost any policy can do good. Particularly for small businesses, day-to-day costs are quite considerable, and lack of public services will indirectly increase costs to small businesses, so this would have a direct link to their cost structure.‘134 This section is related to Bottlenecks no. 4 (fragmented markets, market access and expansion), and no.12 (ack of domestic resource mobilisation, with a focus on fiscal revenues from natural resources). 133 134 See Terence Corrigan, Rethinking infrastructure in Africa: a governance approach (SAIIA Occasional Paper No 252, March 2017), http://www.saiia.org.za/occasionalpapers/rethinking-infrastructure-in-africaa-governance-approach.
