Observations complement each other - Ghana
OPA – properly documented trade
ATP – perishable products & often poorly documented
ALCO – Trades of all kind

One surprise (maybe) – the distribution of informal costs
Import: total informal cost USD 438 (8% of total transport & logistics costs)
Corruption at road barriers represents 7% of total informal costs (import)
