Introduction

A message
from Director-General
Roberto Azevdo
World Trade Statistical Review is the WTOs
new flagship statistical publication. Like its
predecessor, International Trade Statistics, the
aim of the publication is to show the latest trends
in world trade and to improve understanding of
global trade patterns.
This publication has existed in many guises since it was first produced as
International Trade in 1952. Over the years, it has evolved in many ways, just as
world trade has evolved. For example, in 2014 it included for the first time data on
global value chains, a key measure for understanding the impact of global trade.
This new edition sees a transformation of the publication from a statistical
compendium to a publication that analyses these statistics within a global
economic context, using statistical data to explain how and why global trade is
changing.

World Trade
Statistical Review
combines detailed
statistics with
an analytical
review of trade
data to enhance
understanding of the
latest developments
in global trade.

The new structure of the publication allows for more comprehensive information
about trade and trade policy developments to be provided, and in a more timely
way. This new publication will be released online in July each year, bringing it
closer to the reporting period. A print version will be published in early September.
Inevitably, this means that the publication will rely more on estimates of trade over
the previous year rather than final data but by publishing the information earlier,
it will allow us to highlight and analyse the latest trends more quickly. This is of
obvious benefit to policy makers, trade analysts and all those involved in world
trade.
A further update of the statistical data will be made online in October once final
data are available, in line with previous years.
This new publication continues to provide comprehensive data on trade in goods
and services but now has a broader coverage of world trade developments,
including a particular focus on trade policy, an analysis of the participation of
developing economies in world trade and a more detailed look at selected goods
and services. All of this is accompanied by a detailed explanation of how the
information is sourced and the methodology used in compiling the data.
In parallel to the revamping of our flagship statistical publication, we are also
making improvements to our other annual statistical publications. Rather than
having separate profiles for merchandise trade and trade in commercial services,
these will be combined into one publication, with two pages of key data devoted
to each economy.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

The new version of Trade Profiles will be published alongside Tariff Profiles,
which will continue to provide information on tariffs and non-tariff measures
applied by over 170 economies around the world. This publication will continue
to be prepared in cooperation with the United Nations Conference on Trade and
Development (UNCTAD) and the International Trade Centre (ITC). Both these
publications will continue to be published in October each year. Other profiles, on
the Aid for Trade initiative and on trade in value added, will only be made available
online.
Finally, I would like to thank everyone who has worked on this report. The gathering
of these statistics and the analysis of the data would not be possible without the
cooperation of our WTO members missions, other international organizations
and national statistical authorities. Within the WTO, a number of divisions across
the Secretariat have come together to help create this publication. I thank all of
them for their invaluable contribution to this report.

World trade
in 2015-2016

The volume of world trade continued to grow slowly in 2015 recording


growth of 2.7 per cent, revised down from a preliminary estimate of 2.8 per
cent in April 2016. Trade growth was roughly in line with world GDP growth
of 2.4 per cent.

Despite positive growth in trade volume terms, the current dollar value
of world merchandise exports declined by 14 per cent in 2015,
to US$ 16.0 trillion, as export prices fell by 15 per cent.

The dollar value of world commercial services exports also fell 6 per cent
in 2015 to US$ 4,754 billion, although the decline was less severe than
for merchandise.

In the rst half of 2015, a sharp slowdown in trade volumes affected


all regions to varying degrees, particularly in the second quarter,
but this was mostly reversed by the end of the year.

The weakness of trade in 2015 was due to a number of factors,


including an economic slowdown in China, a severe recession in Brazil,
falling prices for oil and other commodities, and exchange rate volatility.

Demand for imports slowed in Asia and in resource-based economies


in 2015 but strengthened in the United States and the European Union.

Merchandise values appeared to be stabilizing in the rst quarter of 2016


as the dollar eased and oil prices staged a modest recovery, but the outlook
for the year as a whole remained subdued.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

General trends and drivers


of world trade in 2015
Overview
Growth in the volume of world
merchandise trade remained sluggish
in 2015, at 2.7 per cent as measured
by the average of exports and imports.
This gure was revised downward
from a preliminary estimate of 2.8 per
cent released in April 2016 based
on available data at the time. Slow
global trade growth was accompanied
by a modest increase in world GDP,
which grew 2.4 per cent in real terms
at market exchange rates in the same
period. Several factors contributed to
the lacklustre performance, including
economic slowdown in China,
recessions in other large developing
economies including Brazil, falling
prices for oil and other primary
commodities, strong uctuations in
exchange rates, and nancial volatility
driven by divergent monetary policies in

developed countries. Faster economic


growth and rising import demand in
developed countries partly made up
for weaker demand elsewhere, leaving
trade growth and output growth nearly
unchanged compared with the previous
year (2.8 per cent and 2.5 per cent,
respectively, in 2014). 2015 marked
the fourth consecutive year with trade
volume growth below 3 per cent, and
the fourth year in a row with world trade
growing at nearly the same rate as world
GDP. Growth rates for trade and GDP
in 2015 remained below their respective
averages since 1990 of 5 per cent and
2.7 per cent (see Chart 3.1). The slow
pace of trade growth relative to GDP
growth over the past four years stands
in contrast to the period from 1990 to
2008, during which world merchandise
trade volume grew 2.1 times as fast
as world GDP on average. The recent
uninterrupted spell of slow trade growth

is unusual but not unprecedented,


and its importance should not be
exaggerated. Overall, world trade
growth was weaker between 1980 and
1985, when ve out of six years saw
trade growth below 3 per cent, including
two years of outright contraction.
Unlike merchandise trade in volume
terms, which recorded a modest
increase last year, the dollar value of
world merchandise trade declined
sharply in 2015 as exports fell 14 per
cent to US$ 16 trillion, down from
US$ 19 trillion in the previous year.
World trade in commercial services
also registered a substantial decline
in dollar terms (exports down 6 per
cent to US$ 4.7 trillion) (see Table
A3). Larger declines were recorded
in services categories closely linked
to merchandise trade (e.g. transport
services, down 10 per cent to US$ 876

The discrepancy between trade growth


in 2015 in terms of volume and value
was mostly attributable to large swings
in commodity prices and exchange rates,
as illustrated by Charts 3.2 and 3.3.
Fuels registered the largest price decline
of any commodity group (down 63 per
cent between June 2014 and December
2015), as a result of new sources of
supply such as shale oil and an easing
of world energy demand as economic
growth slowed in Asia. The decline in
metals prices (down 35 per cent over
the same period) was smaller than the
decline in fuels due to the fact that there
was no increase in the supply of metals
comparable to the development of shale
oil in the United States. Prices of food
and agricultural raw materials also fell, by
around 22 per cent each between June
2014 and December 2015 (more on
commodity prices in Table A67).

The appreciation of the yuan may have
contributed to the economic slowdown
in China to the extent that it made
Chinese exports more expensive in
foreign markets. Meanwhile, major
natural resource exporters such as

their currencies drop sharply in value in

The regional and product composition


of export and import growth has
changed in recent years. In 2012-13,
strong demand for imported goods
and services on the part of China
and other developing economies
helped cushion slow GDP growth and
weak import demand in developed
countries, particularly in the euro
area. However, in 2015 a recovery
of imports in Europe and North
America compensated for weak import
demand in developing countries,
especially natural resource exporters
and developing Asian economies.

World trade volume was unusually


volatile over the course of 2015, falling
sharply in the second quarter before
rebounding in the second half of the
year (see Chart 3.4). The 1.4 per cent
drop in world trade in the second
quarter (average of exports and
imports) was equivalent to a decline
of roughly 5 per cent on an annualized
basis, but this was reversed in the
third and fourth quarters to the point
that trade nished the year above its
initial level. The declines in exports
and imports of developed economies
in the second quarter were less than
the world average, but all economies
were affected to varying degrees by
the trade slowdown.

Asia contributed more than any other


region to the recovery of world trade
after the nancial crisis of 200809. However, the regions impact
on global import demand declined
in 2015 as China and other Asian
economies cooled. Asia contributed
1.6 percentage points to the 2.3
per cent rise in the volume of world

merchandise imports in 2013, or 73


per cent of world import growth, but
in 2015 the region contributed just
0.6 percentage points to the global
increase of 2.4 per cent, or 25 per
cent of world import growth. Asias
share in world import growth began
to shrink at an earlier point than other
regions in the rst quarter of 2015

change and a 4.8 per cent change in prices. During the
2009 nancial crisis, merchandise trade values dropped
23 per cent, i.e. volume changes accounted for 52
per cent and unit changes accounted for 48 per cent
(see chart below). During 2010, both price and volume
recovered. Volume developments contributed more than
price change, resulting in a 21 per cent increase in value
terms (the volume contribution was 68 per cent and the
price change was 32 per cent).

The WTOs merchandise trade volume indices are


designed to approximate changes in quantities of
goods traded by adjusting trade values in current
dollar terms to account for uctuations in prices and
exchange rates. To calculate them, we divide changes
in the dollar value of trade ows (represented by
trade value indices) by changes in export and import
prices (represented by unit value indices) using data
collected from national sources. In general, trade
statistics in volume terms are used to analyse changes
in trade in real terms while trade in value is used when
analysing changes in trade using current prices.

2013 and 2015 saw a different contribution to value


growth: volume growth stabilized at 2.7 per cent in a
context of falling commodity prices. This resulted in a
large decrease in value growth (see table below), with
relationships between price and volume similar to those
registered in the early 1980s before the ratios between
volume and prices bounced back.

During the 20002010 period, growth in trade value


resulted from a balanced contribution of price and
quantities: on average, a 9.7 per cent increase in value
terms was due to a 4.3 per cent contribution of volume

World Trade in 2015-2016

All geographic regions were affected


to varying degrees by the trade
slowdown in the rst half of 2015,
as observed in Chart 3.6. Imports
of resource dependent economies
(mostly in South and Central America
and Other regions) were squeezed
by falling export revenues and did
not see their imports recover in
the second half of 2015, whereas
imports of the more industrialized
regions (Europe, North America,
Asia) staged a partial recovery in the
second half. The plunge in South and
Central Americas imports has been
precipitous, with a decline of 11 per
cent between the rst and fourth
quarters of 2015.

is possible for the dollar value


of merchandise trade. Chart 3.7
illustrates that fuels and mining
products were responsible for more
than half of the plunge in trade values
in 2015, but that slowing trade in
manufactured goods and agricultural
products also contributed signicantly
to the overall decline. Among
manufactured goods, the products
where trade values notably declined
in 2015 were ofce and telecom
equipment, chemicals and other
machinery, while clothing and textiles
only made small positive contributions
to trade growth.

A product breakdown of world trade


growth in volume terms in 2015 is not
available, but such a decomposition

The 6 per cent (see Table A3) decline


in the dollar value of world exports
of commercial services in 2015 was

Trade in commercial services

strongly inuenced by exchange rate


uctuations, particularly the general
appreciation of the dollar against the
currencies of US trading partners and
more specically by the depreciation
of the euro and the pound against the
US currency.
Europe accounted for a large fraction
of world commercial services trade
in 2015 (46 per cent of exports).
A large share of this encompassed
trade within the euro area and within
the European Union more generally,
so exchange rate developments
within the EU have an outsized
impact on world trade. However,
all regions were probably affected
to some degree by exchange rate
movements due to the fact that trade
statistics are usually recorded in US
dollars. To illustrate the sensitivity

trade was measured in euro terms
exports would have risen 8 per cent.

exports in 2015 broken down by
geographic regions. World exports
in dollar terms were down as much
as 8 per cent year-on-year in the

quarter the decline had moderated to
around 6 per cent. The evolution of
European exports followed a similar
pattern, although the magnitude of
the decline was greater (-12 per cent
in the second quarter, -8 per cent in
the fourth quarter). North America
recorded a more modest contraction,

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

World trade and output


in early 2016
The outlook for the world economy
and world trade remained subdued in
the opening months of 2016.
Quarter-on-quarter GDP growth was
modest in the United States and
the euro area in the nal quarter of
2015. Meanwhile, output slowed
in China and contracted in Japan.
Chinas economy slowed further
in the rst quarter of 2016, but
indicators of business and consumer
sentiment suggested that growth
would remain stable at a lower but
more sustainable rate. Growth also
eased in the United States in the rst
quarter of 2016 but accelerated in
the euro area. Finally, Japans GDP
continued to alternate between

positive and negative growth with a


rebound in the rst quarter (see Chart
3.11). Current economic forecasts
for the whole of 2016 at the time of
writing point to another year of weak,
uneven growth in both real GDP and
merchandise trade volume.

the previous year, but this was the


least negative result in 14 months.
Meanwhile, year-on-year growth in
both exports and imports for the
European Union was effectively zero
in February following many months
of contraction.

Monthly merchandise trade data for


the rst quarter of 2016 indicate
stabilization in the dollar value of
trade ows in the latest months (see
Chart 3.12). Imports of the United
States were up 4 per cent year-onyear in February, the largest increase
since December 2014. On the export
side, however, shipments from the
United States were down 4 per cent
compared to the same month in

Chinas exports surged 11 per cent


in March while imports were less
negative compared with previous
months, at -8 per cent. The 1 per
cent decline in Japans imports for
March was the best result since
January 2015, and although import
growth remained negative at -9
per cent, this was less negative
than the 20 per cent declines
that became routine in 2015.

Chapter IV

Merchandise
trade and trade
in commercial
services
The share of manufactured goods in total merchandise
exports was just over 70 per cent in 2015, up from 67
per cent in 2014. The share of agricultural products also
increased slightly to around 10 per cent in 2015. This was
mostly due to the sharp decline in the value of fuels and
mining products whose share dropped to 18 per cent in
2015, from 20 per cent in 2014.
In 2015, the world transport sector fell by 10 per cent
as container shipping rates fell sharply due to lower
demand especially in developing economies. Global
travel receipts also decreased largely as a result of strong
exchange rate uctuations rather than declining demand
for international tourism. The aggregate category other
commercial services, which account for more than half of
services exported worldwide, contracted by 5 per cent.
Construction was the hardest hit services sector (-15 per
cent), reecting a fall in exports in both developed and
developing economies.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

Merchandise trade
The dollar value of merchandise trade fell
by 13 per cent in 2015. This was mostly
caused by a fall in the value of world
exports of fuels and mining products,
which declined at a dramatic rate (-25 per
cent compared with -6 per cent in 2014).
The decline was due to a sharp decrease
in prices and a signicant decrease in
demand. Exports of agricultural products
fell by 11 per cent, while exports of

manufactured goods declined by 5 per


cent (see Chart 4.1).
The reduction in the price of commodities
in 2015 was especially steep for fuels (see
Chart 4.2). For exporting countries, this
decline has been partially compensated
by an increase in the dollar exchange rate
(short-term uctuations between the US
dollar and commodity prices are often

negatively correlated). But the decline


in commodity prices was also due to
the slow-down in the Chinese economy
and an increase in world supply as many
projects fuelled by high prices after
2003 reached maturity. Financial volatility
is also responsible for higher uncertainty
and lower investment worldwide, leading
to a further reduction in demand for
minerals and oil (see Table A67).

Regarding agricultural products


in 2015, the ranking of the top six
exporters remained unchanged
compared with the previous year
(see Chart 4.3). India dropped two
places to ninth position while Thailand
and Australia improved their ranking.
Argentina remained in tenth position.
All of the major exporters of agricultural
products experienced a decline in
exports in 2015, with India recording the
most signicant fall (-19 per cent) and
China the smallest decline (-2 per cent)
(see Table A14). The top ten exporters
represented 72.7 per cent of world
agricultural exports in 2015, down 0.2
per cent on their share in 2014.
Major exporters of fuels and mining
products suffered from the dramatic
decline in prices for fuels and minerals
in 2015 recording a signicant fall
in exports ranging from -14 per cent
for China to -47 per cent for SaudiArabia (see Chart 4.4) (see Table
A15). The share in world trade of the
top ten exporters declined to 50 per
cent in 2015, compared with 60 per
cent in 2000. This reects increasing
geographical diversication in the
exporting of fuels and mining products.

World exports of iron and steel were


heavily affected by falling prices for
steel and iron ores and a decline in
demand in 2015. The top ten exporters
saw a marked decrease in annual
exports ranging from -9 per cent for
Brazil to -39 per cent for the Russian
Federation and Ukraine (see Chart 4.5)
(see Table A17). The top four exporters
remained the same as in 2014. Russia
dropped from fth to sixth position while
Ukraine dropped two places, to ninth
position. Brazil broke into the top ten,
reaching eighth position compared with
11th place in 2014. Among the major
exporters, Brazils exports suffered
the least.

fell by the most (-16 per cent).
Between 2000 and 2015, China
expanded its share in the world
market the most (increasing it by 5
percentage points and reaching a
market share of almost 7 per cent
in 2015) while the European Union
experienced the biggest loss in
market share (-6 percentage points).
The top ten exporters accounted for
almost 86 per cent of world exports

Transport

Chart 4.11:

World transport exports by region, 2015


The transport sector experienced
a difcult year in 2015. Container
shipping rates fell sharply and
the shipping sector suffered from
overcapacity due to lower demand
in developing economies. Global air
freight volumes slowed in particular in
Asia and in Europe, reecting weaker
merchandise trade ows. In contrast,
cheaper global air fares resulting
from collapsing oil prices boosted
international air passenger trafc,
which rose by 6.5 per cent1, a record
for the past decade.

In 2015, world transport exports


fell by 10 per cent to US$ 875
billion, with sharp declines in most
regions (see Chart 4.11). In the
Commonwealth of Independent States
(CIS), exports dropped by 14 per
cent as air transport services sunk by
26 per cent. In Europe, the decline
was 13 per cent, with international
sea transport exports falling by 17

per cent. Transport receipts in South


and Central America were down by
12 per cent. The contraction was less
pronounced in Asian economies, as
Chinas transport exports remained
positive (+1 per cent) while they
plummeted in other leading exporting
economies in the region (see Chart
4.12) (see Table A25).

By contrast, transport receipts


expanded by 6 per cent in the
Middle East, the fastest growing
region. The Middle Eastern air
transport industry recorded strong
growth, with international air
freight and air passenger transport
expanding by more than 10 per
cent in 2015.

Merchandise trade and trade in commercial services

Freight accounts for the largest part of world


transport exports
More than half of global transport exports relate to freight
transport. In particular, seaborne freight represents the
largest share, at 30 per cent in 2014. International freight
transport through railways, roads and inland waterways
accounted for 15 per cent, while airborne freight
accounted for an additional 6 per cent.
Supporting and auxiliary transport services
performed in ports, airports or railways, such as

cargo handling, storage and warehousing, formed


overall around one-quarter of world transport
exports. By comparison, passenger transport by air
was estimated at only 21 per cent of the total.
World transport exports mirror closely trends in global
merchandise trade ows. Even record performances in
international air passenger trafc, as in 2015, cannot offset
negative developments in goods transport.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

Europe saw international tourist


arrivals rise by 5 per cent in 2015,
or by an additional 24 million tourists
compared to 2014, with the European
hotel industry recording the highest
growth in occupancy rates. However,
in dollar terms Europes travel receipts
dropped by 13 per cent. Similarly, in
the CIS, travel exports dropped by 17
per cent while international tourists
were up by 5 per cent. Africa was
the only region with plunging travel
exports due to falling international
tourists following terrorist attacks
in some economies and fear of
Ebola. Increasing foreign tourists,
in particular from the United States,
boosted travel receipts in South and
Central America and the Caribbean,
which expanded by 3 per cent.

In 2015, world travel exports fell by


5 per cent (see Table A25) to US$
1,230 billion, largely as a result of
strong exchange rate uctuations, in
particular the appreciation of the US
dollar against major world currencies,
rather than declining demand for
international tourism (see Chart 4.13).
Despite rising security concerns
and geopolitical tensions in various
destinations, global international
tourist arrivals grew by 4 per cent,

Merchandise trade and trade in commercial services

All categories of other commercial


services decreased, but some were
more adversely affected than others
(see Chart 4.17). Construction was
the hardest hit services sector (-15
per cent), reecting a drop in exports
in both developed and developing
economies, such as the European
Union (-21 per cent), Japan (-6 per
cent) and the Republic of Korea
(-30 per cent) (see Table A37).
In the latter, the fall was due to a
signicant contraction in building
projects in the Middle East, a key
export market. In recent years, the
Republic of Korea has specialized in
building renery and petrochemical
plants as well as power plants.
Among top exporters, China was
the only economy with strong
growth (8 per cent) (see Table
A37), reecting thriving construction
activity notably in African
countries. For both the Republic
of Korea and China, construction
exports are essentially trade with
other developing countries.

Computer services was the most


resilient services sector in 2015, as
it has been in other periods in which
trade has contracted. This is due to a
regular global demand for cost-efcient
technologies, the development of
innovative software in various sectors
such as manufacturing, nance,

well as the pressing need to address IT
security concerns.

Global value chains


Estimating trade in terms of value
added provides a new perspective
on trade patterns. The OECD-WTO
Trade in Value Added (TiVA) database
provides data on the origin of the value
added in gross exports. This can be
used to outline trade ows taking place
within global value chains (GVCs).
TiVA data is based on the International
Standard Industrial Classication (ISIC
Rev.3) that covers all sectors of the
economy, including primary products,
manufactured goods and services.
International supply chains
in the chemicals industry
The chemicals industry is a sector
dominated by supply chains. The
chemicals market faces strong
international competition, and
companies make use of supply chains to

optimize their production or services and


to make cost savings.
The ISIC denition of the chemical
industry includes basic chemicals
(plastics, synthetic rubber, etc.),
agrochemical products (fertilizers,
pesticides, etc.), pharmaceutical
products, cosmetic products (soap,
perfume, etc.) and synthetic bres.
TiVA data shows that around 62 per
cent of the value added in chemicals
exports in 2011 (the latest year for
which data is available in the TiVA
database) originated from other
industries supplying inputs to chemical
rms to allow them to produce goods
and services for export (see Chart 4.19).
The share of upstream services inputs
in the overall value added in chemicals

exports reached 38 per cent in 2011 of


which the wholesale and retail trade
industry represented 12 per cent,
reecting the distribution networks that
support the production process and that
ensure the circulation of intermediate
goods within the supply chain.
Research and development and other
business activities accounted for more
than 10 per cent of the value added in
world exports of chemicals. Transport
and storage services accounted for
4 per cent of its value added exports,
reecting the fact that the chemicals
sector is transport-intensive.
Among primary industry inputs,
raw materials, such as mining
and quarrying products, are
essential for the production of
chemicals. These accounted for
11 per cent of the value added.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

The breakdown between domestic


and foreign value added content in
chemicals exports reveals to what
extent domestic content contributes to
exports in this sector and how much
the economy depends on foreign
production partners for the foreign
value added content of exports.
Chart 4.20 shows that for most
countries, chemicals exports have a
higher proportion of domestic rather
than foreign value added content
but the share varies signicantly.
The foreign value added content
corresponds to the upstream supply of
intermediate goods and services from
foreign companies for the production of
chemicals exports. The level of foreign

contributor to EU exports of chemicals,


with 5 per cent of the value added in
2011, mainly from services sectors
such as research and development or
wholesale/retail distribution services.

value added content depends on


multiple factors, such as the size of the
exporting economy and its capacity to
host the required production processes,
the economys level of industrial
specialization and its position in the
supply chain.

Large economies such as the United


States or Japan have a high share of
domestic content in their chemicals
exports. This is because their domestic
production networks have the capacity
to meet the needs of exporting
industries, and their chemical industry
therefore relies to a lesser extent on
international supply chains to produce
their exports.

Chemicals supply chains in the


European Union are concentrated
among its member countries, with 83
per cent of the value added in
exports in 2011 sourced from within the
EU. Germany, France and the United
Kingdom are the main suppliers of value
added, with 22 per cent, 12 per cent
and 11 per cent respectively of the
value added in EU exports of chemicals.
The United States is the main non-EU

The share of domestic content in


chemicals exports is also high in Brazil,

Merchandise trade and trade in commercial services

whose exports contained only 16 per


cent of foreign value added content
in 2011. This is because Brazils
chemicals industry is one of the largest
in the southern hemisphere, and the
country has its own natural resources
and industrial infrastructure to produce
basic raw materials or petrochemical
products used in the chemical industry.
Switzerland also incorporates a
high level of domestic value added

in its exports of chemical products.


This is due to its specialization
in high-grade products and the
application of innovative processes
and its high-skilled workforce.
Among the economies shown in
Chart 4.20, the Republic of Korea
has the lowest share of domestic
value added content in chemical
exports, at just 47 per cent in 2011.

This is because Korean rms have


established vertical supply chains with
a number of countries to optimize the

Trading
patterns: Global
and regional
perspectives
In 2015, China was once again the worlds leading merchandise exporter
and the United States the leading merchandise importer. The top ve traders
namely China, United States, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom
accounted for more than one-third of world trade while the top three
countries accounted for more than one-quarter. A fall in prices in international
markets had a particular impact on Africa, particularly Sub-Saharan Africa,
other commodity exporters and regional trade agreements in general.
The United States remained the leading trader of commercial services.
However, China, which ranked second, was the only economy with positive
growth for both exports and imports. In 2015, all regions, with the exception
of the Middle East, experienced declines in their exports of services.

Regional trade agreements (RTAs)


Some 423 notifications regarding
RTAs (counting goods, services and
accessions separately) comprising
267 physical RTAs have been
received by the GATT/WTO and
are currently in force, the biggest
being the European Union, the North
American Free Trade Agreement
(NAFTA) and the Association of
Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
Together, the three RTAs represent
55 per cent of world exports (US$
8.8 trillion) and 58 per cent of world
imports (US$ 9.6 trillion).
Overall, total merchandise trade in
value terms for RTAs stagnated or
declined in 2015 (see Chart 5.4). The
European Union, however, slightly
increased its one-third share of world
exports, increasing its total to US$
5,387 billion.
NAFTA accounted for 14 per cent
of world exports, and ASEAN
represented 7 per cent of world

exports respectively in 2015. The


average growth rate for merchandise
trade from 2013 to 2015 is lower than
the rate from 2007 to 2009, reecting
the sluggish economic growth across
the world since the nancial crisis of
2008 and a fall in export and import
prices from 2014 to 2015.
In South America, MERCOSUR
(Southern Common Market) and the
Andean Community (consisting of
Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru)
both experienced a decline in their
exports of 22 per cent and 27 per cent
respectively. Similarly their shares in
world exports continued to decline
slightly from 2014 to 2015.
In Africa, the dependence of the
Economic Community of West African
States (ECOWAS) on oil exports
and imports particularly Nigeria,
which accounted for 50 per cent of
ECOWAS exports resulted in its
share of world exports falling to 0.5
per cent in 2015 from 0.9 per cent in
2012 (see Table A56).

Trade in commercial services


In 2015, world trade in commercial
services was down by 6 per cent,
with some regions experiencing
signicant declines (see Chart 5.5).
In the Commonwealth of Independent
States (CIS), exports dropped by 16
per cent and imports by 23 per cent,
reecting a contraction in services
trade in the Russian Federation and
the depreciation of the Russian rouble
against the US dollar (see Table A3).

in Europe largely contributed to the
regions decline in services trade, while
the recession in Brazil had a major
impact on services trade in South
and Central America, in particular on
imports, which fell by 12 per cent.
Imports increased moderately in North
America, the only region with positive
import growth. In Asia, a decline in
transport exports in many economies
due to weak merchandise trade and
a contraction in other commercial
services translated into services exports
falling by 3 per cent (see Table A3).
A decrease in travel receipts, which
account for more than 40 per cent of
Africas exports, resulted in a decline
of 3 per cent in Africas exports of
commercial services. In contrast,
expanding tourism in the Middle East,
the regions largest exported service,
boosted its services exports, which
rose by 5 per cent, reecting sustained
growth in both the United Arab
Emirates and in the Kingdom of Saudi
Arabia (see Table A3).

its imports were up by 3 per cent,
reecting its ongoing economic recovery
(see Tables A8 and A9).
China was the second-largest services
exporter in 2015, with a 6 per cent share
in global services exports. The country
was the only leading services exporter
to record positive growth for both
exports and imports (2 per cent and 3
per cent respectively). However, China
remained a net importer of services,
mainly due to the rapid increase in its
travel imports in recent years. Among
other leading Asian traders, imports
fell more steeply than exports, with
Japans services imports down by 9
per cent (see Tables A8 and A9).
In US dollar terms, leading European
traders saw declines in their services
trade, with the sharpest export reduction
in France (-13 per cent) and the biggest
fall in imports in Germany (-12 per cent).
However, it should be noted that in
euro terms growth was positive in both
countries. Imports rose by 4 per cent
in Ireland, as payments for business
services as well as for charges for the

use of intellectual property thrived.


Ireland recorded the most dynamic
growth rate among leading importers
of commercial services (see Tables A8
and A9).
Commercial services trade by
modes of supply
Services traded through mode 1
(services supplied from one country
to another, ofcially known as crossborder trade) accounted for 16 per

telecommunications services,
information services, insurance and
pensions services, nancial services,
charges for the use of intellectual

Services can be provided to foreign

Modes 1, 2 and 4 (recorded in the
balance of payments current account)
mostly concern transactions between
residents and non-residents. However,
most of mode 3 (supply of services
through commercial presence) can
only be fully analysed through foreign
afliates statistics. Until recently,
data was mainly limited to developed
economies. But in recent years, an
increasing number of developing
economies, including some leastdeveloped economies, have started
compiling such data, leading to a better
understanding of how suppliers render
services to their clients worldwide.
Due to the time lag for the production
of these statistics, it is only possible

to analyse data up to 2013 in this

mode 3 represents an important way
of supplying services to international

markets. On average, the level of sales


is steadily increasing. This is reected

For example, the supply of services


by the European Union (mainly
dominated by France, Germany, Italy,
Spain and the United Kingdom) to
other countries increased by 6 per
cent in 2011, 4 per cent in 2012 and
1 per cent for 2013. As illustrated
in Chart 5.8, the main extra-EU
destination markets for EU rms
supplying services through mode
3 are the United States, Switzerland,
Brazil, Hong Kong (China) and
South Africa.
Sales of services by the United States
and Canada through their foreign
afliates abroad show a similar growth
of sales. In addition, partial data
are available for some developing
economies, such as India. For instance,
Indian afliates abroad offering
banking, computer and IT-enabled
services have experienced a rapid
increase in sales, with annual average
growth of 17 per cent since 2008.
Inward FATS measure the rendering

(i.e. sale) of services to consumers


of economies in which the foreign
afliates are established. Available
data show on average growth rates
of 4 per cent in 2012 and 2 per
cent in 2013. However the picture
differs substantially depending on the
economies. It should be noted that
the number of economies reporting
inward FATS is greater than those
reporting outward FATS (see Table
A62). A number of economies
achieved double-digit growth rates in
2013 (see Chart 5.9). These include
Zambia (+24 per cent), Cyprus (21
per cent), Serbia (18 per cent),
Luxembourg (16 per cent) and Hong
Kong, China (11 per cent). Some
economies have experienced a sharp
decline in their sales of services.
These include the Slovak Republic
(-21 per cent) and Thailand (-65 per
cent). The high volatility of this data
needs to be taken into account, as
major suppliers of services are not
always included as a consequence of

mergers and acquisitions in an evergrowing era of globalization (see Table


A62).
Inward FATS in the United States
(see Table A64) shows how rapidly
some emerging and developing
economies are gaining local market
shares in the supply of services.
Although still representing relatively
small shares of overall foreign activity
in the United States (ranging from
0.5 per cent to 2 per cent for each
economy), afliates of major developing
economies, in particular from Asia and
the Middle East, are rapidly becoming
important players in the US market. For
example, the Republic of Korea, India,
Singapore, Mexico, China, Hong Kong
(China), United Arab Emirates and
Saudi Arabia now collectively account
for 7.3 per cent of total foreign
supply of services by foreign afliates
in the United States, compared
with only around 2.5 per cent ve
years earlier.

Chapter VI

Developing economies
participation in world trade
Merchandise exports in terms of US dollar values from
developing economies and least-developed countries
(LDCs) were badly hit by signicantly lower prices for fuels
and mining products in 2015. LDCs exports suffered the
most, recording a 25 per cent decline, while exports from
developing economies fell by 14 per cent. LDCs share of
world exports dropped to below 1 per cent for the rst time
since 2007.
Exports of commercial services from developing economies
contracted by 3 per cent in 2015. The decline in transport
exports reected weak merchandise trade while travel
receipts fell only slightly. LDCs recorded growth in
exports of commercial services, which rose by 1 per cent,
assisted in particular by the continuing expansion of travel
exports. However, LDCs participation in global exports of
commercial services remained negligible at 0.8 per cent.

Origin and destination gures and product group shares discussed here are based on the available WTO network of
world merchandise trade data, published in October 2015. The next update to the WTO network of world merchandise
trade data, which will include 2015 gures, is scheduled for October 2016.

Data in this chart are sourced from the WTO network of world merchandise trade, which is based on the geographical
distribution of exports adjusted for distortions relating to large re-export activities. Import data might thus slightly differ from

Developing economies recorded a


14 per cent decrease in merchandise
exports in value terms and a 13 per
cent decrease in imports in 2015. Latin
America, the Middle East and Africa
continued to be negatively affected
by the decline in the prices of fuel
and other commodities. Developing
countries in Europe and Asia, which
recorded positive but slowing growth in
exports in 2013 and 2014, registered
declines in 2015. As a result,
developing economies participation in
world merchandise trade showed little
change in 2015. Their share in exports
declined very slightly to 43 per cent
while their share in imports remained at
41 per cent (see Chart 6.1).

the Commonwealth of Independent


States (CIS see Chart 6.2).
In recent years, trade has grown
unevenly among the ve developing
regions (Africa, Developing Asia,
Developing Europe, Latin America
and the Middle East) due to political
stability, dependence on commodity
exports, and changes in global
commodity prices (see Chart 6.3).
Fuel exporters in developing
economies saw their exports fall
signicantly due to the increased
global supply and falling global
demand as a result of sluggish
growth globally. The share of fuels in
developing countries exports fell from
25 per cent in 2012 to 21 per cent
in 2014. The price of minerals and
non-ferrous metals also fell, but the
price of food and beverages remained
relatively stable following the peak
prices recorded for wheat, maize and
barley in 2011. Commodity-dependent
regions showed double-digit declines
(annual percentage change) in exports
in 2015 in contrast to Developing Asia,
which was buoyed by its manufacturing
sector (see Table 6.1).

Spotlight on Africa: Trade in fuels


and export diversication
As illustrated in Chart 6.3, oil exporters
in Latin America, the Middle East and
Africa were negatively affected by an
increased global supply of oil and the
subsequent fall in fuel prices, which
dampened growth in those regions.
Declines in African exports followed
closely the declines in fuel prices, with
all eight African oil and gas exporters
recording declines in exports in both
2014 and 2015. As a group, the
eight African oil and gas exporters

15Q4

Developing Asia

Africa

Fuel prices

experienced a 52 per cent decrease in


exports between 2013 and 2015.
One reason for the decrease in fuel
exports was the increased oil production
by the United States. Between 2012 and
2014 the United States reduced fuel
imports from Africa by 59 per cent as a
result of increased domestic production.
This decrease in fuel imports contributed
to a 47 per cent fall in the value of Africas
total exports to North America during this
period. In 2014, North Americas share of
Africas total exports was only 7 per cent
compared with 11 per cent in 2012.

However, among the eight oil and gas


exporters, exports of manufactured
goods continued to grow. For
example, although Algerias exports
of manufactured goods represent
a very small percentage of its total
exports, which are dominated by trade
in fuels, its exports of manufactured
chemicals grew by almost 150 per cent
from 2013 to 2014. According to the
latest data available, the percentage
of manufactured goods as a share of
African exports grew from 19 per cent
in 2013 to 21 per cent in 2014.
Manufactured goods continued to
experience positive trade growth
(although at a decelerating rate) in
2013 and 2014 alongside trade of
agricultural products, in contrast to
exports of fuels and other mining
products. As shown in Table 6.2, the
top four traders, which also represent
several of the most economically
diverse countries in Africa, weathered
the downturn in the last few years
better than the commodity-dependent
oil and gas exporters.

Trade in commercial services


Developing economies participation
in world trade in commercial services
continued to rise in 2015, reaching
32 per cent of global exports or
US$ 1,521 billion (see Chart
6.4 and Table 6.3). Since 2005,
these countries have progressively
expanded their share of services
trade. The increase was mainly due
to Developing Asia, which accounted
for 22.4 per cent of world exports
of services in 2015. China, India,
the Republic of Korea, Hong Kong

56

(China) and Thailand were among the


main contributors.
Developing Asias share of world
imports of commercial services
expanded even more rapidly,
reaching 25.4 per cent in 2015,
largely due to Chinas booming
services imports, in particular travel.
Developing economies demand for
services has thrived over the years,
with these countries raising their
participation in world imports to 39.4
per cent in 2015 (US$ 1,815 billion).
As merchandise trade ows

contracted in 2015, container port


activity decelerated considerably
in several developing economies,
declining by 11 per cent in Hong
Kong (China) and by almost 9
per cent in Singapore. However,
thanks to Chinas growth in exports,
developing economies transport
exports fell by only 6 per cent
compared with a 12 per cent fall for
developed countries. Developing
economies travel receipts declined
by 1 per cent while exports of other
commercial services decreased
by 3 per cent.

Travel and transport account for the


bulk of developing economies exports
of commercial services, totalling 37 per
cent and 20.2 per cent respectively
in 2015 (see Chart 6.5). Both these
shares are higher than in developed
economies. However, developing
economies share in exports of
commercial services continues to lag
behind in higher-skilled services, such
as charges for the use of intellectual
property n.i.e., insurance and pension
services and nancial services. This
points to the difculty for these
countries to compete in these areas,
in particular in terms of training and
nancial resources.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

Other business services comprised 20


per cent of developing economies total
services exports in 2015, according
to estimates. This category includes
research and development, professional
and management consulting services,
and technical, trade-related and other
business services.
Rising by an annual average of around
10 per cent since 2005, developing
economies share of global exports
of other business services reached
29.1 per cent in 2015. Developing
Asia continued to play the main role

(22.9 per cent), with exports from


India and China alone accounting
for 10.2 per cent of world exports.
These two economies ranked rst
and second as preferred services
offshoring locations.1 Indias exports
to foreign clients included a wide
range of services, such as nance and
accounting, auditing, book keeping
and tax consulting services, customer
services, medical transcriptions, and
various types of engineering services
(embedded solutions, product design,
industrial automation and enterprise
asset management).

Other economies play a key role


in business process outsourcing
(BPO). The Philippines, for example,
has specialized in call centres but it
has also expanded into higher valueadded services. Its exports of other
business services were up by 15
per cent in 2015. Among developing
countries, Israel is the leading exporter
of research and development services
(R&D). However, its exports in this
area contracted in 2015. In Africa,
Morocco is the main exporter of
other business services, especially
call centres.2

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

LDCs in Sub-Saharan Africa


experienced the largest declines
among LDC sub-categories in 2015,
registering a contraction of 30 per cent
(bringing their total exports to US$
97.5 billion from US$ 139 billion in
2014). This contraction was mainly due
to declines in exports of oil exporters
(Angola, Chad, Equatorial Guinea and
Sudan), which collectively account for
about 50 per cent of total exports from
the region.
Angolas share of merchandise exports
from the Sub-Saharan region fell to
35 per cent in 2015 from 48 per cent
in 2012. Its exports dropped by 42
per cent in 2015 (to US$ 34 billion
from US$ 59 billion in 2014). In this
region, oil exporters represented 48
per cent of the LDCs merchandise
exports in 2015, while agricultural
exporters and manufacturing exporters

represented 15 per cent and 3 per


cent respectively.
In contrast, in the East Asian
and Pacic region exporters of
manufactured goods accounted for
82 per cent of the LDCs merchandise
exports in 2015. Oil exporters and
agricultural exporters had a share of
12 per cent and 1 per cent of exports
respectively. Exports from the LDCs
in the East Asian and Pacic region
contracted by 4.3 per cent in 2015;
net exporters of manufactured goods,
such as Cambodia and Bangladesh,
accounted for more than 80 per cent
of total merchandise exports from the
East Asian and Pacic LDCs in 2015.
LDCs trade decit hit a record level
of US$ 87 billion in 2015, 44 per
cent higher than in 2014 and 134
per cent higher than in 2013. LDC oil

exporters registered a trade decit for


the rst time in more than 15 years,
totalling US$ 12 billion in 2015,
compared with an average surplus of
US$ 36 billion during the past decade.
LDC manufacturing and agricultural
exporters recorded a US$ 34 billion
and US$ 20 billion trade decit
respectively (see Chart 6.8).
Trade in commercial services
Although commercial services are
playing an increasingly important role
in global trade, the participation of
LDCs in international services trade
remains negligible. This is due to
several constraints, including poor
infrastructure, limited skills in this
sector and lack of financial resources.
In the last decade, the share of
LDCs in world exports of commercial
services increased from 0.4 per cent

Exports

Export growth was fuelled by


LDCs in Asia, with Cambodia and,
in more recent years, Myanmar
being leading tourism destinations.
Also Bangladesh has become an
emerging exporter of information and
communications services and it is
seen as an attractive IT and business
processing outsourcing location. The
country has emerged especially as
a hub for freelance IT services via
online sites. These include freelance
IT professionals offering various
services, from simple data entry to
application development and project
management.
LDCs exports of computer services
are still at a low level, with exports
concentrated in just a few economies.
However, these exports have been
expanding rapidly. Overall, in 2015,
LDCs in Asia exported commercial
services worth US$ 14.4 billion, up by
2 per cent compared with 2014.
For African LDCs, the services sector
benefitted in particular from Ethiopias
expanding role as a supplier of air
transportation services and from
Tanzania and Uganda increasing their
role as exporters of tourism. With a
29.4 per cent share in 2015, Ethiopia

sector is less diversied in LDC islands,
where receipts declined by 6 per cent in
2015 to US$ 0.6 billion. Tourism is the

services sectors, such as travel
(tourism) and transport. Their aggregate
contribution reached 73.4 per cent of
total services exports in 2015 compared
with 56.7 per cent for other developing
economies and 37.7 per cent for
developed countries. Since these
sectors are labour-intensive, they reach
out to a potentially large share of the
population, creating good employment
opportunities in LDCs. In 2015, LDCs

LDCs services trade remains


concentrated within a few economies.
In 2015, the top ten leading
exporters accounted for more than
two-thirds of the groups services
receipts, a proportion virtually
unchanged since 2005. Myanmar
is the largest exporter of services
among the LDCs. For imports, Angola
alone represented one-quarter of the
groups total commercial services
payments.
The LDCs, as a group, are net
importers of commercial services. In
recent years, LDCs services trade
deficit has widened, reaching US$
39 billion in 2015 up from US$
16.3 billion in 2005. However, while
both the transport sector and other
commercial services sectors have
experienced persistent trade deficits,
travel (tourism) has recorded an
expanding surplus since 2005. In
2015, the travel surplus reached US$
11.4 billion.

Developing economies participation in world trade

Aid for Trade


The Aid for Trade initiative aims to
help developing countries use trade
as a means of achieving economic
growth and alleviating poverty. The
initiative supports the integration of
developing countries and particularly
least-developed countries into the
multilateral trading system by mobilizing
international resources to address
the constraints experienced by these

countries so that they can participate


more effectively in global trade and
benet from this activity. One of the
key aims of the initiative is to enhance
the capacity of developing countries to
trade and to take advantage of market
access opportunities.
Total Aid-for-Trade commitments in
2014 (the latest year for which data

is available) totalled US$ 54.8


billion, with approximately US$ 7
billion spent on multi-country
and regional programmes.
Chart 6.12 shows the regional
distribution of Aid-for-Trade
commitments from bilateral
and multilateral donors. Asia
and Africa remain the main
recipients of Aid for Trade.

Chapter VII

Trade policy
developments
To understand the developments of trade
ows over time, it is important to see them
in the context of changes in the global trade policy
environment. To enhance the transparency of trade
policy developments, notications from WTO members
complemented by semi-annual trade policy monitoring
exercises undertaken by the WTO are made available
to the public. The following chapter draws on these two
sources and provides some highlights of the current
trends as well as an overview of the stockpile of trade
policy measures in place.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

Trends in trade policy making


Since 2009 the WTO has been
monitoring trade policy trends and
developments and has published
regular trade monitoring reports. These
reports aim to enhance the transparency
of trade policy developments and to
provide WTO members and observers
with an up-to-date picture of overall
trends in international trade policymaking as well as the implementation of
trade-restrictive measures and tradeliberalizing measures. The monitoring
exercise was initiated immediately
after the onset of the nancial crisis
at the end of 2008 and has evolved
considerably since then.

The latest monitoring report shows that


between mid-October 2015 and midMay 2016, WTO members applied 154
new trade-restrictive measures.1 This
corresponds to an average of 22 new
measures per month and constitutes a
signicant increase compared with the
previous interim report,2 which recorded
an average of 15 measures per month.
Also, it is the highest monthly average
registered since 2011, when the WTO
recorded a peak in the monthly average
of new trade-restrictive measures
(see Chart 7.1).
Trade-restrictive measures include
the establishment of import or export

tariffs or increases in these tariffs, the


introduction of import bans or quantitative
restrictions, the establishment of more
complex customs procedures, local
content measures and the temporary
or permanent introduction of import or
export taxes.
During the same period, WTO members
introduced 132 measures aimed at
facilitating trade, an average of 19
measures per month. While the latest
monthly average of trade facilitating
measures reects an increase compared
with the previous interim report, it is also
lower than the recorded monthly average

The slow pace of removal of previous


restrictions means that the overall stock
of trade-restrictive measures is continuing
to increase. During the latest review
period, the overall stockpile of restrictive
measures, including trade remedies,
introduced by WTO members grew by 11
per cent. Of the 2,835 trade-restrictive
measures recorded for WTO members
since 2008, only 708, or 25 per cent, had
been removed by mid-May 2016. The
rate by which WTO members have been
eliminating trade restrictions remains too
low to make a dent in the stockpile. The
total number of restrictive measures still
in place today stands at 2,127 (see Chart
7.3).

WTO members mostly concern
regulations and standards, which are
dealt with under the WTOs Sanitary
and Phytosanitary (SPS) Measures
Agreement and the Technical Barriers
to Trade (TBT) Agreement (see
Table 7.1). Under these agreements,
WTO members are obliged to
notify in advance any intention to
introduce new SPS/TBT measures
or to modify existing measures and to

By complying with the SPS/TBT


notication obligations, WTO members
are able to keep other members fully
informed about new or changed
regulations that may signicantly
affect trade. Therefore, an increased
number of notications does not
automatically imply greater use of
protectionist measures, but rather
enhanced transparency regarding
these measures.

The SPS/TBT notications received


by the WTO may underestimate
the actual number of implemented
measures as there is no legal
obligation to notify all measures.
Indeed, members have no obligation
to notify measures which are mostly
identical to international standards,
guidelines or recommendations.
However, members are recommended
to do so. Furthermore, WTO members
have not notied all SPS/TBT
measures that they are supposed to
report to the WTO.

Trade remedies
In addition to the measures indicated
above, WTO members are required
to inform the WTO about trade
remedies anti-dumping measures,
countervailing measures and
safeguards (see Table 7.2). These
are measures applied by importing

countries in certain circumstances


and under WTO rules to imports of
a particular product where those
imports are causing injury to domestic
producers. Anti-dumping and
countervailing measures are applied
to dumped or subsidized imports
respectively from a particular country
or countries. These measures have to

be implemented in accordance with


the WTOs Anti-dumping Agreement
and the Agreement on Subsidies
and Countervailing Measures.
Safeguard measures are applied,
under the Agreement on Safeguards,
on a most-favoured nation (i.e. nondiscriminatory) basis, subject to
specically dened exceptions.

WTO members are frequently
referred to as countries, although
some members are not countries
in the usual sense of the word but
are ofcially customs territories.
The denition of geographical and
other groupings in this report does
not imply an expression of opinion
by the Secretariat concerning the
status of any country or territory,
the delimitation of its frontiers,
nor the rights and obligations of
any WTO member in respect of
WTO agreements. The colours,
boundaries, denominations, and
classications in the maps of this
publication do not imply, on the
part of the WTO, any judgement
on the legal or other status

72

of any territory, or any


endorsement or acceptance of
any boundary. Throughout this
report, South and Central America
and the Caribbean is referred to
as South and Central America;
Aruba, the Bolivarian Republic of
Venezuela, Hong Kong Special
Administrative Region of China,
Macao Special Administrative
Region of China, the Republic of
Korea and the Separate Customs
Territory of Taiwan, Penghu,
Kinmen and Matsu are referenced
as Aruba (the Netherlands with

Rep. of; Hong Kong, China;
Macao, China; Korea, Republic of;
and Chinese Taipei respectively.

Changes in statistical territories


in 2010 and 2011 involving the
Netherlands Antilles and Sudan are
reected in this report, as far as
available statistics permit. Data for
the Netherlands Antilles are no longer
given beginning with 2011, and are
replaced with data for the successor
states Curaao and Sint Maarten.
Further, the secession of South Sudan
from Sudan in July 2011 resulted in
a decrease in the magnitude of the
latters trade ows. No time series is
currently disseminated for South Sudan.

Definitions and methodology


Merchandise trade
Exports and imports
Two systems of recording merchandise
exports and imports are in common use.
They are referred to as general trade
and special trade and differ mainly in the
way warehoused and re-exported goods
are treated. General trade gures are
larger than the corresponding special
trade gures because the latter exclude
certain trade ows, such as goods
shipped through bonded warehouses.

To the extent possible, total merchandise


trade is dened in this report according
to the general trade denition. It
covers all types of inward and outward
movement of goods through a country
or territory including movements through
customs warehouses and free zones.
Goods include all merchandise that
either add to or subtract from the stock
of material resources of a country or
territory by entering (imports) or leaving
(exports) the countrys economic
territory. For further explanations, see

Composition, definitions & methodology

Products
All product groups are dened
according to Revision 3 of the Standard
International Trade Classication (SITC).
Throughout this report, other food
products and live animals; beverages
and tobacco; animal and vegetable
oils, fats and waxes; oilseeds and
oleaginous fruit are referred to as
other food products; electronic data
processing and ofce equipment
is referred to as EDP and ofce
equipment; and integrated circuits
and electronic components is
referred to as integrated circuits.
Agricultural products according to the
AOA (WTO Agreement on Agriculture)
denition refer to HS chapters 1 to 24
(excluding sh and sh products) and
a number of manufactured agricultural
products (for further information see
The Legal Texts, The Results of
the Uruguay Round of Multilateral
Negotiations, WTO). This denition
does not correspond to the denition
of agricultural products presented in
the breakdown of merchandise trade by
main commodity group (see table II.1).
Merchandise trade and
the goods account in balance
of payments statistics
Merchandise trade statistics serve
as an input for the compilation of
the goods account in the balance
of payments (BOP) and the rest of
the world account in the System
of National Accounts (SNA).
The compilation of international
merchandise trade statistics (IMTS)
relies principally on customs records
complemented, as appropriate, by
additional sources to enhance their
coverage (for instance, to include

electricity, or trade in vessels


and aircrafts). These statistics
essentially reect the physical
movement of goods across borders,
while National Accounts and BOP
statistics record transactions that
involve change in ownership.
Goods for processing with or without
change of ownership are recorded
in merchandise statistics when they
enter or leave the economic territory,
irrespective of whether a change
in ownership takes place. However,
goods supplied to another economy
for processing without a change
of ownership and returned to the
economy of the owner after processing
are not recorded in the balance of
payments statistics compiled according
to BPM6; further, if the goods are sold
to a third economy after processing,
then the value of the goods (including
the value of processing) is recorded as
an export of the economy of the owner
and an import of the third economy;
the value of the processing is recorded
as an export of services of the
processing economy and an import of
services of the economy of the owner.
Differences between BOP (BPM6)
and national accounts statistics
and IMTS can be found in the
International Merchandise Trade
Statistics: Compilers Manual,
Revision 1 (IMTS 2010), Chapter
XXIV Section B Goods to be
recorded differently in IMTS and
BPM6/national accounts (p288).

Trade in commercial services


between residents and nonresidents of an economy (BPM6)
Depending on the location of the
supplier and the consumer, the General
Agreement on Trade in Services
(GATS) denes four modes of supply.
In addition to the cross-border supply
(mode 1), where both the supplier
and the consumer remain in their
respective home territories, GATS also
covers cases where consumers are
outside their home territory to consume
services (mode 2 consumption
abroad), or where service suppliers
are in the territory of the consumers
to provide their services, whether
by establishing afliates through
direct investment abroad (mode 3
commercial presence), or through the
presence of natural persons (mode 4).
An economys Balance of Payments,
namely the services account, can be
used to derive estimates covering
trade in commercial services for
modes 1, 2 and 4. The Balance of
Payments does however not include
most of the information on services
supplied through foreign afliates
that is required to estimate the size of
mode 3. A framework for collecting
these data, the Foreign Afliates
Statistics (FATS) was adopted by
the international statistical community
for the rst time in 2002, and then
further developed in 2010. FATS are
available in the annual publication
World Trade Statistical Review and
on the online tool I-TIP services.
Trade in commercial
services between residents and
non-residents of an economy
(BPM6), exports and imports
Exports (credits or receipts) and imports
(debits or payments) of commercial
services are included in balance of

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

payments statistics, in conformity


with the concepts, denitions and
classication of the sixth (2009) edition
of the IMF Balance of Payments and
International Investment Position Manual
(BPM6) as well as the 2010 edition of
the Manual on Statistics of International
Trade in Services (MSITS 2010).
Denition of commercial services in
the Balance of Payments
In the sixth edition of the Balance
of Payments Manual, the current
account is subdivided into goods,
services (including government
goods and services, n.i.e.), primary
income, and secondary income.
Commercial services comprise all
services categories except government
goods and services, n.i.e. Commercial
services are sub-divided into
manufacturing services on physical
inputs owned by others, maintenance
and repair services n.i.e., transport,
travel, and other commercial services.
The BPM6 contains the following
12 standard services components.
(1) Manufacturing services on
physical inputs owned by others
(2) Maintenance and repair
services, n.i.e.
(3) Transport
(4) Travel
(5) Construction
(6) Insurance and pension services
(7) Financial services
(8) Charges for the use of
intellectual property, n.i.e.
(9) Telecommunications, computer
and information services
(10) Other business services
(11) Personal, cultural and
recreational services
(12) Government goods and
services, n.i.e.
Manufacturing services on physical

80

inputs owned by others cover


processing, assembly, labelling, packing,
and similar activities undertaken by
enterprises that do not own the goods
concerned and are paid a fee by the
owner. Only the fee charged by the
processor, which may cover the cost
of materials purchased, is included
under this item. Examples include oil
rening, liquefaction of natural gas,
assembly of clothing and electronics,
assembly, labelling, and packing.
Maintenance and repair services n.i.e.
cover maintenance and repair work
by residents on goods that are
owned by non-residents (and vice
versa). The repairs may be performed
at the site of the repairer or elsewhere.
The value recorded for maintenance
and repairs is the value of the work
done not the gross value of the
goods before and after repairs.
Manufacturing services on physical
inputs owned by others and
Maintenance and repair services
n.i.e. form a new WTO aggregate
named Goods-related services.
Transport is the process of carriage of
people and objects from one location
to another as well as related supporting
and auxiliary services. Transport can
be classied according to: (i) mode
of transport, namely, sea, air, or other
(other may be further broken down
into rail, road, internal waterway,
pipeline, and space transport as well as
electricity transmission); and (ii) what
is carried passengers or freight. Also
included are postal and courier services.
Travel credits cover goods and
services for own use or to give
away acquired by non-residents
from an economy during visits to
that economy. Travel debits cover
goods and services for own use or

to give away acquired from other


economies by residents of the reporting
economy during visits to these other
economies. The most common goods
and services covered are lodging, food
and beverages, entertainment and
transportation (within the economy
visited), gifts and souvenirs. Travel is
further subdivided into: (i) personal
travel and (ii) business travel.
The aggregate category Other
commercial services corresponds to the
following components dened in BPM6:
Construction covers the creation,
renovation, repair, or extension of
xed assets in the form of buildings,
land improvements of an engineering
nature, and other similar engineering
constructions such as roads, bridges,
dams, and so forth. It also includes
related installation and assembly
work, site preparation, specialized
services such as painting, plumbing,
and demolition, and management of
construction projects. Construction
also covers the acquisition of goods
and services by the enterprises
undertaking construction work
from the economy of location of
the construction work. Construction
can be divided into (i) construction
abroad and (ii) construction
in the compiling economy.
Insurance and pension services
include services of providing life
insurance and annuities, nonlife
insurance, reinsurance, freight
insurance, pensions, standardized
guarantees, and auxiliary services
to insurance, pension schemes, and
standardized guarantee schemes.
Financial services cover nancial
intermediary and auxiliary services,
except insurance and pension
fund services, provided by banks

Composition, definitions & methodology

and other nancial corporations.


They include deposit taking and
lending, letters of credit, credit
card services, commissions and
charges related to nancial leasing,
factoring, underwriting, and clearing
of payments. Also included are
nancial advisory services, custody
of nancial assets or bullion, nancial
asset management, monitoring
services, liquidity provision services,
risk assumption services other than
insurance, merger and acquisition
services, credit rating services, stock
exchange services, and trust services.
Financial services may be charged for
by: (i) explicit charges; (ii) margins on
buying and selling transactions; (iii)
asset management costs deducted
from property income receivable in
the case of asset-holding entities;
or (iv) margins between interest
payable and the reference rate on
loans and deposits (called nancial
intermediation service charges
indirectly measured FISIM).
Charges for the use of intellectual
property n.i.e. include: (i) Charges for
the use of proprietary rights (such
as patents, trademarks, copyrights,
industrial processes and designs
including trade secrets, franchises);
these rights can arise from research
and development, as well as from
marketing; and (ii) Charges for
licenses to reproduce or distribute (or
both) intellectual property embodied
in produced originals or prototypes
(such as copyrights on books and
manuscripts, computer software,
cinematographic works, and sound
recordings) and related rights (such as
for live performances and television,
cable, or satellite broadcast).
Telecommunications, computer
and information services cover
(i) Telecommunications services,

which encompass the broadcast


or transmission of sound, images,

forth, including business network
services, teleconferencing, and
support services; (ii) Computer
services consisting of hardwareand software-related services
and data-processing services;

services.
(i) Audiovisual and related services
cover services and fees related to
the production of motion pictures
(on lm, videotape, disk, or
transmitted electronically, etc.),
radio and television programs (live
or on tape), and musical recordings.
(ii) Other personal, cultural, and
recreational services include
(a) health services, (b) education
services, (c) heritage and recreational
services, and (d) other personal
services. Health services as well
as education services are provided
remotely or on-site. Data on exports
and imports of total services
(including government goods
and services n.i.e), other services
(including government goods and
services n.i.e) as well as government
goods and services n.i.e. are available
as memorandum items in the

staff, and military personnel located
abroad and their dependents;
(c) services supplied by and to
governments and not included in
other categories of services.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

Statistics on international trade


in services are produced jointly
and published simultaneously
with UNCTAD and ITC.
Regional and world estimates
for 2015 for sub-item of other
commercial services should be
considered as preliminary.
Coverage and comparability
While many economies worldwide have
fully implemented the BPM6 for the
recording of their Balance of Payments
services transactions, some are still
compiling their statistics according to
the BPM5 methodology. Consequently,
comparability and coverage of data
may not always be complete. It should
be noted in particular that world and
regional estimates of trade in new
services items such as Manufacturing
services on physical inputs owned
by others and Maintenance and
repair services n.i.e. may be
underestimated, as some economies
do not report these items yet.
While the coverage and comparability
of trade in services statistics have
improved signicantly over the years,
the data remain subject to recognized
limitations, such as i) certain countries
do not collect gures for all items,
ii) statistically capturing some services
items remains difcult (more notably
on the imports side), iii) data can be
reported on a net rather than gross
basis, iv) certain transactions may
prove complex to classify appropriately,
v) different sources, data collection
and estimation methods lead
to diverse results, etc. These
distortions are more signicant
on detailed items levels and may
lead to considerable asymmetries
among countries reported trade
ows by origin and destination.

Foreign Afliates Statistics


The new statistical framework
on Foreign Afliates Statistics
(FATS) is developed in the Manual
on Statistics of International
Trade in Services 2010, the
OECD Benchmark Denition of
Foreign Direct Investment and the
OECD Handbook on Economic
Globalisation Indicators. The statistical
framework covers both goods and
services producing enterprises.

In the absence of data on output,


sales of services are used.
FATS are currently available mainly for
OECD and a small number of nonOECD economies. Given the recent
development of these statistics,
comparability and coverage of individual
economy data may not always be
complete. Availability of detailed
data and long-time series varies
considerably between economies.
Trade in global value chains

It analyses the universe of afliates


for which foreign investors own
more than 50 per cent of the
voting power or equity interest.
Depending on the compilers view, one
can distinguish inward FATS, that is,
activities of foreign-owned afliates
in the compiling economy, or, outward
FATS, that is, foreign afliates of the
compiling economy active abroad.
Variables such as sales, value added,
number of employees, etc. are used
to describe the afliates activities.
These variables are broken down
by country of origin or destination
of investments and also by type
of primary activity of the afliates.
The United States also provide
a breakdown into total supply of
goods and total supply of services
products. In the case of services
industries the concept of supply (or
output) is based on measures that
better capture service output (i.e. the
margin). This mainly has an impact
on the measurement of activities of
wholesalers and retailers, insurers
and nancial intermediaries.
From a GATS perspective, the
size of mode 3 in a given country
can be approximated through the
value of the output (or supply) of
services by foreign-owned afliates.

The measurement of trade in value


added terms traces the source of the
value added, by country and industry
that is contained in the products (goods
and services) traded across the world.
Value added is dened as the
value that is added by industries to
produce goods and services. In a
national account sense, it reects the
compensation of labour, capital, nonnancial assets and natural resources
used in the production as well as
net indirect taxes, when relevant.
The value added approach reects
the interconnection of economies
and sectors as well as the
increasing importance of trade
in intermediate inputs that takes
place among international supply
and production chains. It provides
insights on where the value added
comes from and thus on the actual
contribution of trade to economies.
Trade in value added indicators are
estimates based on Inter-Country
Input-Output (ICIO) tables. ICIO tables
cover both goods and services. They
regroup national Input-Output tables
and international trade statistics into a
consistent framework to describe sale
and purchase of goods and services

Composition, definitions & methodology

between producers and consumers


from various economies and
industries. They enable to disentangle
domestic and foreign value added
in each economy and industry.
Trade in value added estimates
presented in this publication are
sourced from the OECD-WTO Trade in
value added (TiVA) database and the
OECD ICIO table. The latter covers 57
economies plus a rest of the world
aggregate. Industries are regrouped
into 37 sectors and cover productive
activities in the primary, secondary and
tertiary sectors classied according to
the International Standard Industrial
Classication (ISIC) Revision 4.
The decomposition of
gross exports into their value
added components
The breakdown of conventional
export data (gross) into their value
added components allows showing
the role played by economies
in global value chains.
The domestic value added
content of exports is composed
of the following indicators:
(i) The domestic value added,
embodied either in nal
or intermediate goods/
services, directly consumed
by the importing country.
This represents a one-to-one
country transfer of value added,
with exported goods/services
crossing borders only once.
(ii) The domestic value added
contained in intermediates
exported to a rst country
which re-exports them to a third
country as embodied in others
goods/services. This indicator
represents a one-to-many

country transfer of value added,


when exported goods/services
cross borders more than once.
This illustrates the level of
participation of an economy
within international production.
(iii)
The domestic value
added of exported
goods/services which is
eventually re-imported
by the country itself.
Such a value added
round-trip between two
countries highlights the
domestic value added
content present in a
countrys imports.
The foreign value added
content of exports corresponds
to the value added of inputs
that was imported in order to
produce intermediate or nal
goods/services to be exported.
It can also be referred to as
vertical specialization, when
expressed in percentage.
The sectoral value added
contributions to gross exports
Exports from a (domestic) industry
do not only contain value added
produced within the same industry
but also value added sourced
from other industries within the
economy or from other economies.
The value added approach to
estimate trade ows can describe
both the geographical and sectoral
origin of the value added contained in
gross exports of any given industry.
Table IV.3 presents the value added
origin (columns) of gross exports
(rows) according to the domestic
and foreign source and by main
sector. This highlights the extent of
the global value chains phenomenon

and outlines the interconnection and


related dependency across countries
and sectors for the production and
trade of goods and services.
Other denitions and methods
Annual changes
Throughout this report, average annual
percentage changes are analogous to
compound interest rates. In calculating
the average annual rate of change
between 2010 and 2015, for example,
data for calendar year 2010 were taken
as the starting point, and data for
calendar year 2015 as the end point.
Prices
Commodity price movements are
primarily described by indices largely
based on spot market prices, and
therefore exclude transactions
governed by longer-term contracts.
Price indices for such commodities
as food, beverages, agricultural raw
materials, minerals, non-ferrous metals,
fertilizers and crude petroleum are
obtained from IMF Primary Commodity
Prices (May 2016 release). Aggregates
for all primary commodities and
for non-fuel primary commodities
are calculated using IMF weights
(Statistical appendix table A67).
Beginning with the rst quarter of
2011, the crude oil price is computed
excluding West Texas Intermediate
(WTI), which accounts for one third of
the IMFs crude oil index. The price of
WTI became largely dislocated from
international markets in early 2011
and is thought not to represent well
prices in international oil trade. For
more information, see Box Comm.1 of
the World Banks Global Commodity
Market Outlook, January 2012 (see
page 65 of the complete report on
http://go.worldbank.org/WI8LCZ6PT0).

the corresponding regional deator.


Second, the total world merchandise
volume index is obtained by deating
the world trade value with the aggregate
of regional deators. Throughout the
aggregation process trade values of
the previous year are used as weights.

World merchandise
trade indices
The volume indices and the deators (i.e.
price indices or unit values) are taken
from a range of different international
and national sources. The reported
deators and volume indices may not
always be available for the most recent
years or may differ in product coverage
from the corresponding value indices.
Aggregation of the indices to obtain
a world total is a two-tier process.
First, export and import deators from
national and international sources
are complemented with Secretariat
estimates for missing data. They are
then aggregated to obtain regional
totals. The volume index for each region
is obtained by dividing the respective
trade value index for each region by

World GDP growth is estimated as


a weighted average of individual
economies real GDP growth. The
weights used are shares of the
economies previous year GDP at
2005 constant prices converted to
dollars at market exchange rates.
The use of ofcial exchange rates
which are not market-based for some
major economies, together with the
uctuations of the United States
dollar vis--vis major currencies,
can have a signicant impact on the
weighting pattern. The increasing use
of weights based on purchasing power
parities (PPP) by other international
organizations is meant to attenuate
anomalies linked to these factors. In
a period of widely diverging growth
rates among countries and regions,

the choice of the weighting pattern


can have a marked inuence on the
global growth estimate. For the 20002011 period, global growth estimates
based on PPP-weights indicate
a signicantly faster growth than
estimates using weights based on GDP
data measured at market exchange
rates. This is because of differences
in the two weighting patterns.
Re-exports and re-imports
Under the system of general trade
adopted in this report, re-exports are
included in total merchandise trade.
However, in the case of Hong
Kong, China, the magnitude of its
re-exports (amounting in 2015 to
$498 billion), if included in regional
or world aggregates, would adversely
affect the analytical value of the
statistics by introducing a signicant
element of double counting. Therefore,
Hong Kong, Chinas re-exports are
excluded from the world and from
Asia aggregates (unless otherwise
indicated); only Hong Kong, Chinas
domestic exports and retained
imports are included in the totals.

Composition, definitions & methodology

Trade policy indicators


Indicators tracking the changes
in the application of trade policy
measures can be broken down
into three broad categories:
(1) Customs related measures:
Information on customs duties
(bound, applied and preferential) can
be found on the WTO website and
also in a summary form in the World
Tariff Proles. Information on the
changes in customs duties can be
derived from the above sources but
these changes are also covered by
the Trade Monitoring reports (TM).
(2) Trade remedies: Binding tariffs
and applying them equally to all
trading partners (most-favourednation treatment) are key to the
smooth ow of trade in goods.
The WTO agreements uphold
the principles, but they also allow
derogations in some circumstances.
Those trade remedies cover
antidumping, countervailing duties and
safeguards; the relevant information
can be found in the I-TIP database
and also in the TM database.
(3) Technical measures / regulations:
By far a persistent growth in
notications happened in the area of

regulations and standards which fall


under the SPS and TBT agreements.
Keeping up to date with these
measures is crucial for all trading
partners. Notications in this area
are not easily comparable as to
the trade impact of the respective
measures announced and the number
of notications may overestimate the
actual implementation of the measures.
For each of these three categories,
the secretariat compiles indicators
showing the measures that were
introduced or modied in the year
and, when applicable, the stock of
these measures. WTO Members
have established two main ways of
obtaining the relevant information
on trade policy measures, one being
the system of notications and the
other one being the trade policy
reviews reports and, related to it, the
trade monitoring reports. Through
notications, WTO members and
observers provide the Secretariat
with recent relevant information on
trade and trade-related measures.
In the trade monitoring context, the
Secretariat in addition to information
received by WTO members and

observers, collects trade and traderelated measures from other relevant


sources and subsequently submit it to
the relevant member for verication..
The preparation of the trade
monitoring reports is an on-going
activity and a unique process relying
on continuous dialogue and exchange
with WTO delegations as well as
divisions within the WTO Secretariat.
The WTO-wide trade monitoring
reports are subsequently discussed at
meetings of the WTOs Trade Policy
Review Body. The verication process
is a unique feature of the WTOs
monitoring efforts and represents a
quality control mechanism, allowing
members to check the accuracy of the
information before it is made public.
Information contained in Members
notications is now in large parts
included in a consolidated database
platform, the Integrated Trade
Intelligence Portal (I-TIP, weblink).
For information on the Trade policy
monitoring reports see: (Trade
Monitoring database, http://tmdb.

World Trade Statistical Review 2016

Specific notes for selected economies


Merchandise trade statistics
of the European Union
Beginning with the 2002 report, EU
data compiled according to national
statistical practices have been replaced,
starting 1993, with data compiled
by Eurostat in accordance with EU
legislation. The concepts and denitions
adopted by the EU are in line with the
United Nations International Trade
Statistics, Concepts and Denitions,
Series M, N 52, Revision 2. As a result,
the conceptual differences between
EU member states data have been
substantially reduced. Moreover, for the
EU as a whole, Eurostat data are more
timely than the previous source, thus
reducing substantially the amount of
estimation included in the EU aggregate.
Since January 1993, statistics on the
trade between the member states of
the EU have been collected through
the Intrastat system (see GATT
1994, International Trade Trends and
Statistics). The coverage of this system,
which relies on reports submitted
by rms for transactions above a
minimum value, is not as wide as the
previous one, which was based on

86

customs declarations. This is particularly


noticeable on the import side. For
example, prior to the adoption of the
Intrastat system, reported intra-EU
imports (c.i.f.) closely matched reported
intra-EU exports (f.o.b.). However,
from 1993 onwards, the reported
value of intra-EU imports has been
on average around 3 per cent lower
than the value of intra-EU exports,
indicating a substantial under-reporting
of intra-EU imports. As a result of
this inconsistency, the Secretariat has
substituted intra-EU exports data for
intra-EU imports at the aggregate EU
level when estimating regional and
world totals. However, this adjustment
is not allocated between EU member
countries. Hence, the sum of reported
imports of individual EU members
does not add to the gure for EU
imports as a whole. This adjustment
is also reected in the volume
estimates for the EU as a whole.
Major breaks in data continuity
of merchandise trade
Beginning 2003, Singapore includes
merchandise trade with Indonesia.
Beginning 2008, Indonesias

imports are reported according


to the general trade system.
With respect to the Russian
Federation, considerable uncertainty
remains about the accuracy of
foreign trade statistics, especially as
regards imports. A large proportion
of the reported data on imports
consists of ofcial estimates of
inows of goods which enter the
economy without being registered
by the customs authorities. Such
adjustments to import data accounted
for 6 per cent of the ofcially reported
totals in 2012; 8 per cent of the
ofcially reported totals in 2013.
As of 2012, data on merchandise
trade values for Switzerland includes
trade in gold. Merchandise trade ows
between the European Union member
States include trade associated
with fraudulent VAT declaration,
which concerns mainly ofce and
telecommunications equipment.
Between 2006 and 2007, intra-EU
merchandise trade statistics have been
particularly affected by a considerable
reduction in this fraudulent
trade in the United Kingdom.

Composition, definitions & methodology

Statistical sources
Most frequently used sources
for statistics are:
EUROSTAT, Comext and on-line
databases
FAO, FAOSTAT Agriculture database
FAO, Production Yearbook
GTIS, Global Trade Atlas database
IMF, Balance of Payments Statistics
IMF, International Financial Statistics
IMF, World Economic Outlook database
OECD, Main Economic Indicators
OECD, Measuring Globalisation: The
Role of Multinationals in OECD
Economies
OECD, Monthly Statistics of
International Trade
OECD, National Accounts
OECD, Statistics on International Trade
in Services
OECD/IEA, Energy Prices & Taxes
UNECE, Economic Survey of Europe
UNECLAC, Overview of the Economies
of Latin America and the Caribbean
UNIDO, National Accounts Statistics
Database
UNSD, Comtrade database
(for OECD members the UNSD-OECD
Joint Trade Data Collection and
Processing system)
UNSD, International Trade Statistics
Yearbook
UNSD, Monthly Bulletin of Statistics
UNSD, Servicetrade database
World Bank, World
Development Indicators

These sources are supplemented


by national publications and
other international databases
and Secretariat estimates.
Figures for total merchandise
trade are largely derived from IMF,
International Financial Statistics.
Data on merchandise trade by origin,
destination and product are mainly
obtained from Eurostats Comext
database, the Global Trade Atlas and
UNSDs Comtrade database. Some
inconsistencies in the aggregate
export and import data for the
same country or territory between
sources are inevitable. These can
be attributed to the use of different
systems of recording trade, to the
way in which for example IMF and
UNSD have converted data expressed
in national currencies into dollars,
and revisions which can be more
readily incorporated in the IMF data.
Statistics on trade in commercial
services are mainly drawn from the
IMF Balance of Payments Statistics or
from the Trade in Services by Partner
Country dataset of the OECD. Data
for European Union members, as well
as the EU(28) aggregate are drawn
from Eurostats on-line database. For
other economies that do not report
to the IMF (e.g., Chinese Taipei) data
are drawn from national sources.

Estimations for missing data are


mainly based on national statistics.
GDP series in current dollars are
mainly derived from the IMF World
Economic Outlook database.

the United Nations Statistics
Division, the United Nations Industrial
Development Organization, the World
Intellectual Property Organization and
the World Bank whose assistance
in supplying advance information
has greatly facilitated the work of
the Secretariat. Acknowledgements
are also due to national institutions
for providing advance statistics.
Closing date for merchandise
trade statistics (Customs
basis) is 11 March 2016 and
commercial services (Balance
of Payments basis) is 30 April
2016. For foreign afliates
trade in services statistics the
closing date is 10 May 2016.

a Includes significant re-exports.


1RWH Breaks in the continuity of the value series for particular countries and regional groupings are indicated by an 'I'. They result mainly from changes in the methods of collecting and reporting merchandise trade
statistics.
It should be noted that the World and Asia totals contain a significant element of double counting due to the use of the general system of recording merchandise trade statistics which includes re-exports.
Recent figures for a number of countries and territories have been estimated by the Secretariat.

a Includes significant imports for re-export.


b Imports are valued f.o.b.
1RWH Breaks in the continuity of the value series for particular countries and regional groupings are indicated by an 'I'. They result mainly from changes in the methods of collecting and reporting merchandise trade
statistics.
It should be noted that the World and Asia totals contain a significant element of double counting due to the use of the general system of recording merchandise trade statistics which includes re-exports.
Recent figures for a number of countries and territories have been estimated by the Secretariat.

1RWH This information refers to supply of services products to foreigners by United States owned affiliates and supply of services products to United States persons by affiliates foreign owned. This differs from the FATS
data presented for the United States in the tables A62 and A63 which refer to sales of foreign affiliates operating in the services sector. For instance the latter include sales of goods of foreign affiliates whose primary activity
is classified as a service industry but not the supply of services of those whose primary activity is classified as a manufacturing industry.
