Scaling up Global Support for South South and Triangular Cooperation

The global South now contributes more than half of global production and 40 per cent of world trade, with intraregional trade within the South accounting for more than a quarter of global trade. The South also holds almost twice the foreign exchange reserves of developed economies.
