English term or phrase: so that there will be a knock-on effect
The underlying purpose of the agreement [Energy Charter Treaty] is to consolidate political reform and stability of the former East Bloc, whose economies are in transition from centrally planned to market economies, by bringing in Western capital and know-how to speed up the modernisation of the energy industries of those economies. The rationale is that the energy industry underpins all other industries so that there will be a knock-on effect, increasing the rate of modernisation for the economies as a whole. The other side of the coin is that the OECD and its investors get access to the oil and gas resources of the former Soviet Union, which incidentally meets the OECD’s growing need for traditional energy resources from the newly industrialised and developing countries.”
