“International Trade Statistics 2008” offers a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in

world trade, covering the details of merchandise trade by product and trade in commercial services by

category. Each chapter is introduced by a highlights section that identifi es the most salient trends in

the data and illustrates them with numerous charts and maps. There is also a methodological chapter

that explains essential concepts and defi nitions used in compiling the statistics, and an appendix with

detailed data on trade by region up to 2007.

This year’s edition expands the coverage of merchandise trade, including new tables on exports and

imports of food and fuels by selected economies. All data used in the publication, as well as additional

charts not included in the book, can be downloaded from the WTO web site at stat.wto.org. With these

additions, “International Trade Statistics 2008” will continue to serve as an invaluable reference for

researchers, policy makers, and anyone interested in international trade.

Trade slowed down in 2007 due to weakening demand from developed econo-

mies. Realignments in exchange rates and fl uctuations in the prices for commodi-

ties, such as oil and gas, introduced uncertainties into the global markets. Growth

in world merchandise exports slipped to 6 per cent in real terms in 2007, following

a year-to-year expansion of world gross domestic product (GDP) of 3.4 per cent.

The slowdown of trade growth from 8.5 per cent in 2006 is due to a deceleration

of import demand, mainly in the United States but also in Europe and Japan.

Trade remained strong in most developing countries. Regions such as Africa, the

Middle East, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), developing Asia,

and South and Central America showed sustained growth in their economies in

2007. While higher commodity prices

helped to improve the fi nancial situation

of certain countries, higher energy and

food prices also increased infl ationary

pressures worldwide.

For the 2000-2007 period, exports

on average increased by 2.7 percent-

age points faster than real gross domes-

tic product. The only exception was in

2001, when trade marginally declined

due to the dot.com bubble burst.

Trade in manufactured products is growing faster than trade in agriculture and

in fuels and mining products

Merchandise trade by product

Exports of manufactured products expanded by 7.5 per cent in volume terms in 2007, maintaining its lead over both agriculture

and fuels and mining products, which grew by 5 per cent and 3 per cent respectively. The deceleration in trade in manufactured

products from the 10 per cent level achieved in 2006 is partly due to the slowdown of activity in major importing economies.

Asian exports of manufactured products expanded by

13.5 per cent in 2007, but North American and Euro-

pean exports increased by only 4.5 per cent and 4 per

cent respectively, almost half their 2006 rates. OPEC

production, which declined in 2007, contributed to the

stagnant volumes of fuels and mining exports from the

Middle East. Crude oil exports from Africa grew by 4.5

per cent, much higher than the 1.5 per cent increases in

2005 and 2006. The CIS increased its exports of fuels

and mining products by 7 per cent, the highest growth

of all regions.

The surge in agricultural prices dominated

developments in 2007

Spurred by a 14 per cent growth in prices, agricul-

tural exports expanded by 19.5 per cent in dollar terms

in 2007, the highest growth rate since 2000. Europe,

which accounts for 46 per cent of world exports of agri-

cultural products, boosted exports by 19 per cent. Asia,

the second-largest supplier with a share of 19 per cent,

increased its exports of agricultural products by 20 per

cent, a rate unmatched since 2000. Exports from North

America, the third-largest supplier, rose by 17 per cent.

Its share of world trade has been progressively declining, from 21 per cent in 2000 to 16 per cent in 2007, due to the below world

average export growth during this period (6 per cent against 11 per cent for the world). South and Central America registered its

highest growth rate since 2000 (23.4 per cent).

Prices of fuels and mining products increased by 11 per cent in 2007, rising by less than half as much as in 2006. As a

result, the value of world exports rose by 15 per cent, the lowest rate since 2003. Growth decelerated in all regions apart from

the CIS, which increased its exports by 19 per cent. The slowdown in the price rises of minerals and non-ferrous metals (from 56

per cent in 2006 to 17.5 per cent in 2007) affected particularly non-fuel mining exports in South and Central American (whose

growth declined from 55 per cent in 2006 to 20 per cent in 2007). Fuel exports from the Middle East to its most important trading

partner, Asia (65 per cent of total exports), increased by 13 per cent, compared with 28 per cent the previous year. Nevertheless,

demand from China and India remained strong, with imports increasing by 26 per cent.

With an estimated 7 per cent increase in average prices in 2007 and continuous expansion in volumes traded, the value of

world exports of manufactured products rose by 15 per cent. Europe increased its exports by 16.3 per cent, an acceleration

similar to 2005 and 2006. Asia maintained nearly the same level of growth as in 2006 (15.7 per cent). North America registered

the lowest growth (8.5 per cent). The CIS has become a signifi cant destination for exports of manufactured products. Imports

of manufactured products in the CIS grew by an astounding annual average of 30 per cent from 2000 to 2007. As a result, 3.6

per cent of European exports of manufactured products (double the 2000 level) now go to the CIS, while Asian exports to the CIS

achieved an annual average increase of 43 per cent over the same period.

Trade fl ows within regions account for a higher share of world trade than fl ows between regions. Since 2000, this share has

fl uctuated from between 55 to 58 per cent. Relatively large differences have occurred in the growth of trade within regions: North

America and Asia show a relative balanced growth between inter- and intra-regional trade; Europe’s intra-trade is growing much

faster than its external trade due to the deepening of its economic integration while South and Central America, Africa, the Middle

East and the CIS have recorded higher growth in inter-regional exports than in intra-regional.

Increasingly different patterns are emerging for Regional Trade Agreements

Regional Trade Agreements

The European Union is a highly integrated marketplace, with two-thirds of its trade transactions taking place within the region.

In 2007, intra-trade accounted for slightly more than half (51 per cent) of the exports of the North American Free Trade Agree-

ment (NAFTA). In 2000, this share was 56 per cent. However, as trade with countries outside NAFTA’s area has been growing

at a somewhat faster pace than intra-NAFTA trade, this share has been declining.

Other trade blocs, such as MERCOSUR, the Andean Community or ASEAN, show a less pronounced integration. MERCOSUR

countries carry out only around 14 per cent of their trade with other countries in the agreement, the Andean Community only 8

per cent, and ASEAN a quarter.

Brazil, India and China record strong growth in exports

Merchandise trade flows of Brazil, India and China

Brazil, India and China are illustrative of a clear trend of vigorous growth among a number of emerging economies. While this

growth implies a growing share of world trade, the share in world exports remains relatively small for most of the emerging econo-

mies individually. The share of Brazil and India, for example, is still just over 1 per cent, while China’s share is approaching 10

per cent. In 2007, Brazil exported merchandise worth $161 billion. With imports accounting for $127 billion, it recorded a posi-

tive trade balance of $34 billion. Since 2000, Brazil’s exports have grown at an annual average of 17 per cent. Its main partners

are in Europe, which receives almost 27 per cent of Brazil’s exports. South and Central America absorbs almost a quarter of its

exports, North America a fi fth and Asia accounts for slightly above 16 per cent of Brazil’s total merchandise exports.

India’s merchandise exports reached $145 billion in 2007, growing at an annual average of 19 per cent since 2000. More

than 30 per cent of its exports go to Asia, with Europe being the second-largest trading region (23 per cent). The Middle East

absorbs 17 per cent of India’s merchandise exports while North America receives 15 per cent. In 2007, India’s imports reached

$217 billion, resulting in a negative trade balance of $72 billion.

Since China joined the WTO in 2001, it has almost quadrupled its exports while imports have more than tripled. In 2007, its

trade surplus reached $262 billion. Some 45 per cent of its trade receipts stem from Asia, while Europe and North America each

receive 21 per cent of China’s exports. It should be noted that China Customs Statistics record the country of origin for imports

and the country of fi nal destination for exports. However, if the country of fi nal destination cannot be ascertained, exports are

attributed to the last known country of dispatch.

Least-developed countries show an improved trade performance in services

Least-developed countries

The participation of Least-Developed Countries (LDCs) in world trade has been increasing over the past fi ve years, albeit

slowly. In 2006, the ratio of trade to GDP in LDCs continued to grow. For merchandise, LDCs’ share in world trade grew to 1

per cent due to the higher international prices of commodities. Their share of trade in commercial services amounted to 0.4

per cent only. However, trade in commercial services is

increasing in all major sectors, such as transportation,

travel and other commercial services. Transportation

services showed steady growth between 2000 and 2006,

resulting in an average annual increase of 14 per cent.

Other commercial services show more volatile growth,

ranging from negative growth in 2001 (-10 per cent) to

very strong growth of almost 29 per cent in 2006. Travel

remains the most important revenue source in terms of

trade in commercial services (51 per cent of total trade),

advancing by an annual average of 13 per cent between

2000 and 2006. For many small developing islands,

such as Comoros or the Maldives, the share of travel in

total exports of commercial services ranges from 80 to

over 90 per cent.

The international supply of services is rapidly increasing

Trade in services

In 2007 the value of trade in commercial services increased

at a faster rate (18 per cent) than trade in goods (15 per cent)

for the fi rst time in fi ve years. This was mainly due to the

expanding international supply of many services and to the

increase in transportation prices. While the services sector

generates approximately two-thirds of the total world value

added, its share in total trade remains below 19 per cent. In

2007, the major exporters of commercial services remained

the European Union, the United States, Japan, China and

India, which together represented just under two-thirds of

world exports. In recent years, China and India’s exports of

commercial services have increased much faster than the

world average.

Trade in commercial services in 2007 was highly concentrated

in North America, Asia and Europe (representing 15, 29 and 50 per

cent respectively of total commercial services trade). Trade within the

European Union represented more than one-quarter of world trade.

However, the market share of these regions has either stagnated

or decreased (in the case of North America) in recent years, while

other regions – principally the CIS, Africa and the Middle East – have

increased their share. Although it has the smallest share in terms

of world trade (2.5 per cent), the CIS has seen its share increase by

75 per cent since 2000. This is mainly due to trade of Russia and

Ukraine and also imports of Kazakhstan, which has become the sec-

ond-largest commercial services importer in the CIS after Russia.

Suppliers of services sometimes decide to establish a commer-

cial presence (an affi liate or a branch) in another country to supply

particular services (this mode of delivering services through affi liates

is not included in international trade fl ows measured by a country’s

balance of payments). Foreign direct investment in enterprises active

in the services sector indicates that at least 50-55 per cent of total

foreign direct investments are made in this sector. Available infor-

mation shows that in 2005 the use of foreign affi liates remained the

dominant mode used by major exporters to supply services abroad.

For instance, Canada and the United States registered high growth

rates of their sales of services by their majority-owned foreign affi li-

ates (excluding most fi nancial intermediation services) between 2003

and 2005 (10 and 12 per cent average annual growth rate respec-

tively).

Prices of agricultural products increased by 14 per cent in 2007, compared

with 7 per cent for manufactured goods and 11 per cent for fuels and mining

products. This price rise helped to boost the value of agricultural exports, which

rose by 19 per cent, exceeding the performance of both manufactured goods and

fuels and mining products.

Sharply rising prices of cereals and vegetable oils contributed to the 21 per

cent expansion of food exports. This price hike was due partly to strong demand

on the part of developing and emerging economies and to a new demand for bio-

fuels. The increased cost of fertilizers also contributed to the higher food prices,

with prices for the most common fertilizers rising between 39 and 68 per cent

in 2007.

Net food exporters benefi ted from the rise in prices,

which tended to raise their export revenues. In 2007,

India and Thailand saw their rice exports grow by a stag-

gering 62 and 44 per cent respectively. Russia and Brazil

also experienced impressive growth in food exports (45

per cent and 23 per cent respectively).

Some 12 per cent of Africa’s import bill was devoted to

food in 2007, nearly double the world average. Between

2002 and 2007, food imports increased sharply in China

(an average annual growth of (27 per cent), the 12 new

member states of the European Union (27 per cent) and

the Commonwealth of Independent States (23 per cent).

Together, they increased their share of world food imports

to 9.3 per cent in 2007, from 5.6 per cent in 2002.

Rise of fuel exports decelerates in 2007

Fuels and mining products

World exports of fuels and mining products increased by 15 per cent in 2007, signifi cantly below the 28 per cent recorded in

2006. This is mainly due to the lower growth in fuel prices, 11 per cent, compared with 41 per cent in 2005 and 21 per cent in

2006. This is the fi rst time since 2003 that world exports of fuels increased at a slower pace than other major product groups.

In volume terms, exports of fuels remained roughly constant in 2007; oil imports of developed economies actually declined by

nearly 2 per cent.

China, the Republic of Korea and India are among the top ten importers of fuels. India and China recorded growth of 20 and

18 per cent respectively in their fuel imports in 2007. African oil exporters were among the main benefi ciaries of this trend (in

2007, 25 per cent of China’s fuel imports originated from Africa, compared with 18 per cent in 2000). However, high fuel prices

created serious problems for net fuel-importing countries in sub-Saharan Africa. For a number of countries, more than half of

their foreign exchange earnings from merchandise exports were spent on fuel imports in 2007, and in some cases this share

exceeded 75 per cent. Tanzania’s share was 79 per cent, followed by Senegal and Burundi, each of which spent 76 per cent of

export earnings on fuels.

In 2007, high prices continued for ores and other minerals, with exports growing by 26 per cent. Since 2000, these commodi-

ties have registered an average annual increase of 31 per cent in value and 29 per cent in price. In particular, the rapid increase

in imports by large emerging economies contributed to the strong performance of this sector. Over the last fi ve years, for example,

Chinese imports of ores and other minerals grew by an average annual rate of 55 per cent.

Iron and steel leads the way

Manufactured goods

In 2007, world exports of manufactured goods were

valued at $9.5 trillion, 15 per cent higher than in 2006

and in line with the expansion of total merchandise

exports. The share of manufactured goods in total

merchandise exports was 70 per cent; since 2000,

however, this share has dropped by 5 points.

In 2007, the fastest growing components of manu-

factured goods were iron and steel, which increased

by 27 per cent, followed by chemicals and transport

equipment (18 per cent each). In recent years, iron

and steel has been among the fastest growing export

products of China, increasing by an annual rate of 73

per cent since 2002. Consequently, China overtook

Germany to become the leading exporter of iron and

steel in 2007, rising from 17th place in the ranking of

world exporters in 2002.

A marked deceleration in trade in 2007

Office and telecom equipment

World trade in offi ce and telecom equipment increased by less than 4 per cent in 2007, in sharp contrast to the 14 per cent

growth registered in 2006.

This slowdown is widely spread across the world,

but it has largely stemmed from measures taken by the

United Kingdom against the so-called Missing Trader

Intra-Community (MTIC) fraud. This involved the mis-

appropriation of VAT by fraudulent importers within the

European Union. The fraud tends to be targeted at

high-value, low-volume goods, such as mobile phones

and computer components, and considerably infl ates

trade between EU states in offi ce and telecom equip-

ment. It is estimated that trade associated with MTIC

fraud dropped from $42 billion in 2006 to just $3 bil-

lion in 2007 in the UK, causing intra-EU trade in offi ce

and telecom equipment to decline by 12 per cent.

Excluding intra-EU trade fl ows, offi ce and telecom equipment exports were still the least dynamic component of world trade.

Their global value increased by 8 per cent as all major traders apart from the Republic of Korea and Japan registered a marked

slowdown compared with their 2006 performance.

Despite sluggish import growth, the sizeable US and extra-EU trade defi cits expanded again in 2007. US exports even

decreased, for the fi rst time since 2002. China increased its exports by a remarkable 21 per cent, further developing its role

as a central hub for global manufacturing of electronic products. At the same time, China remained the fastest growing mar-

ket for Asian economies’ exports of integrated circuits

and other intermediate products. Japan and most

Asian information technology (IT) exporters continued

strengthening their exports of integrated circuits and

electronic components to the growing Asian market.

China, the Republic of Korea, Mexico and Thai-

land achieved an above-average export performance

in offi ce and telecom equipment due to their speciali-

sation in fi nished products. The Republic of Korea

and Mexico saw their exports of telecom equipment

rise by about 25 per cent; Mexico overtook Japan and

the United States to become the world’s fi fth-largest

exporter of these products. Thailand benefi ted from

further specialisation in electronic data processing and

offi ce equipment, and expanded its exports by 12 per

cent.

Competition from emerging economies increases

Automotive products

Driven by an 18 per cent increase in imports of the European Union and strong demand in the emerging and oil-rich econo-

mies, the value of world exports of automotive products expanded by 16 per cent in 2007. Exports to North America, however,

almost stagnated (2 per cent) refl ecting the lack of dynamism of this market. Between 2000 and 2007, exports to North America

increased by an annual average rate of 5 per cent, less than half the world average for the period. As a result, excluding intra-EU

trade, North America’s share in world imports declined from 64 per cent in 2000 to 44 per cent in 2007. By contrast, the weight

of emerging countries is increasing. Imports of the CIS, for example, expanded by a remarkable 60 per cent in 2007. Follow-

ing a 76 per cent increase in 2006, car shipments from the European Union to Russia surged by a further 70 per cent in 2007.

Japanese car exports to Russia also attained remarkable growth of 72 per cent and 54 per cent in 2006 and 2007 respectively.

Chinese exporters make inroads in the Commonwealth of Independent States

Clothing

In 2007, the value of world exports of clothing increased by 12 per cent, the same rate as in 2006. Excluding China, the

world’s leading exporter, growth is a more modest 7 per cent. The clothing market’s share in total merchandise exports has pro-

gressively declined from 3.2 per cent in 2000 to 2.5 per cent in 2007. Nonetheless, the value of China’s clothing exports rose

by 21 per cent in 2007 to $115 billion, accounting for a third of world exports. This performance follows an even stronger one in

2006, when the country’s exports grew by 29 per cent. China has also made impressive inroads in the CIS region, with exports

expanding by an annual average of 41 per cent between 2000 and 2007. Between 2006 and 2007, the value of Chinese exports

to this region doubled, reaching $13.7 billion.

Extra-EU exports also experienced growth of 19 per cent, recording total trade of $24.8 billion. Between 2000 and 2007,

exports declined in the Republic of Korea (by an annual average of 13 per cent), Chinese Taipei (12 per cent), the United States

and Cambodia (13 per cent).

Cut flowers

A key challenge for developing countries is to diversify their exports in order to reduce the volatility of their export earnings

and to create new job opportunities. An example of this diversifi cation is the development by some sub-Saharan countries of the

cut fl ower industry. Between 2000 and 2007, cut fl ower exports from this region expanded by an average annual rate of 20 per

cent. Africa’s share of world exports doubled to 8 per cent over this period. Kenya, Africa’s leading exporter of cut fl owers, is the

fourth-largest world supplier and the largest outside supplier to EU countries.

From 2003 to 2007, exports of cut fl owers from Ethiopia increased by an average annual rate of 142 per cent. Zambia’s ex-

ports expanded by an annual rate of 44 per cent between 2000 and 2006. This improvement was helped by factors such as a

generous incentive package for investors and effi cient transport services. Kenya’s fl ower industry has benefi ted from the improved

airport infrastructure serving the booming tourism sector.

South and Central America and the Caribbean face competition for clothing exports

Export Processing Zones (EPZs)

Labour-intensive mass-production activities tend to be

based in low-cost labour countries. These activities often

take place in “export processing zones” (EPZs) of developing

economies, where imported materials and other intermedi-

ate goods are processed or assembled for export. For some

countries, these EPZs account for a substantial proportion of

their total exports.

From 1997 to 2007, exports of manufactured goods from

EPZs in Mexico, the Dominican Republic and some Central

American countries grew faster than traditional exports in the

fi rst half of this period but slower in the second half.

China’s entry into the WTO in 2001 and the expiry of the

Agreement on Textiles and Clothing at the end of 2004 helped

to increase global competition in the clothing market, which

was refl ected in lower export growth in the EPZs. The affected countries also faced competition from new Asian entrants, such as

Viet Nam and Cambodia, as well as from traditional competitors, such as India and Bangladesh. As a result, US clothing imports

from the EPZs of these countries declined at average annual rates of up to 13.4 per cent. Another reason for the decline was the

higher export revenues from natural resources.

Some preferential trade agreements (PTAs), such as the US Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act, combined with safeguard

measures imposed by the European Union and the United States on imports of certain textiles and clothing from China, helped

some developing countries to maintain or even marginally increase their exports. Those PTAs, which permit the assembly of cloth-

ing from fabrics sourced from countries other than the United States, have helped small exporters, such as Madagascar and Haiti,

increase their exports of clothing to the United States by 26 per cent and 15 per cent per year respectively in the last fi ve years.

Some countries have managed to diversify the activities of their EPZs. The Dominican Republic increased its exports of elec-

trical products and jewellery by nearly 9 per cent between 2002 and 2007; while Mexico has shifted to the relatively high-skilled

sectors of automotive products, televisions and video projectors. Between 2000 and 2007, Mexico’s exports of TV receivers and

video projectors expanded by 21 per cent per year. Costa Rica also expanded its exports of offi ce and telecommunication equip-

ment by an average annual rate of 21 per cent during this period. China, with a 32 per cent share in 2007, is now the major

destination for Costa Rica’s exports of this product category.

III. China records impressive growth

Transportation services

Exports of world transportation services reached $750 billion in 2007, an

increase of 19 per cent, following a 9 per cent rise in 2006. Rising fuel prices

and the inability of some major shipping routes to meet demand continued to

have a signifi cant effect on transportation costs. According to industry sources

in the airline industry, fuel costs accounted for 29 per cent of operating expenses

in 2007 compared with 14 per cent in 2003. In the shipping sector, the cost of

fuel for a large container ship accounted for 63 per cent of operating expenses,

compared with 33 per cent three years earlier.

Sea transport accounted for 43 per cent of exports of world transportation serv-

ices in 2006, while airborne freight accounted for only 7 per cent. World seaborne

freight services have increased and currently represent more than four-fi fths of sea transport services.

In 2007, the European Union, the United States and

Japan remained the leading exporters and importers of

transportation services. China became the fi fth-largest

world exporter of transportation services, recording $31.3

billion of exports. The Chinese transportation sector has

recorded impressive growth since 2000. Exports have

grown by 36 per cent on average per year, with a peak

of 49 per cent in 2007. In 2007, Hong Kong China, the

United States and the European Union were China's main

export markets. However, China remains a net importer

of transportation services.

Sea freight represents the vast majority of China's trade in of transportation services (63 per cent of exports and 81 per cent

of imports). In 2007, sea freight totalled $19.8 billion, a 59 per cent increase. This refl ects the rapid development of China's

trade infrastructure in recent years. China has six of the top 20 container terminals in the world. By 2006, there were 12 ports

in China with the capacity to handle over 100 million tons of cargo. Overall, China's handling of freight through its ports increased

by 14.8 per cent in 2006. The number of containers handled in Chinese ports increased by 23.8 per cent. This represents

around 20 per cent of world traffi c for container vessels in 2006.

International travel receipts increase, with Australia recording high growth in

education-related travel

Travel

International travel continued to increase in 2007 despite rising costs and lower disposable income in many developed econo-

mies. The number of international tourists reached 903 million (an increase of 6.6 per cent) and international travel receipts

totalled $855 billion, a rise of 14 per cent. The leading travel exporters continued to be the European Union and the United States,

accounting for 57 per cent of total exports. However, the most rapid export and import growth was in Russia and Australia.

The travel industry is a major component of export diversifi cation for many developing countries. In 2007, travel receipts for

developing countries reached $285 billion, around 33 per cent of their total exports of commercial services. The least-developed

countries (LDCs), in particular, are an increasingly attractive destination for international tourists. Tourism in the LDCs has grown

by an annual average of more than 13 per cent since 2000.

Australia has become the fourth-largest world exporter

of travel and the second among Asian countries behind

China. In 2007 Australia's travel exports grew by 25

per cent. Education-related travel accounted for 46 per

cent of the country's total travel exports in 2007, becom-

ing the most important service category exported by the

economy.

In 2007, overseas student enrolments were over

455,000, a 66 per cent increase compared with 2002.

Foreign students spent over $10 billion in Australia, of

which 39 per cent was on tuition fees while the remainder

was on food, accommodation, local transport and leisure.

The students are mostly from Asian countries, with China

and India accounting for 35 per cent of total international

enrolment.

The EU holds a particularly large share


“Other commercial services” continues to be the largest component of commercial services exports. Growing by 20 per cent

in 2007 to $1,685 billion, these services accounted for 51 per cent of the overall total for commercial services. In 2007 the Euro-

pean Union accounted for more than half of the total value of other commercial services exported to the world. “Other business

services” and fi nancial services accounted for 67 per cent of EU exports. The United States continued to be the second-largest

exporter. However, its share of world exports declined to 15 per cent in 2007 from 20 per cent in 2000. The highest export and

import growth was recorded by China and Russia.

Building infrastructure

Construction

World construction exports totalled $60 billion in

2006, representing about 4 per cent of other commer-

cial services exports. Since 2000, construction exports

have grown by an annual average of 11 per cent. The

European Union, Japan, the United States, Russia and

China account for approximately 80 per cent of world

construction exports.

In 2006, growth of exports of construction from the

European Union and China were below the world average.

In contrast, Japan recorded growth of 24 per cent, while

Russia and the United States registered an increase of

around 40 per cent. Russia's construction exports have

grown by an annual average of 53 per cent since 2000.

With exports of $3.5 billion, construction was the sec-

ond-largest exported other commercial service in Russia

in 2007. Russian construction companies are active in

building oil production facilities and power plants abroad.

In 2006, more than one-third of construction work was

carried out in EU countries, (mainly Germany, Austria and

Cyprus), Turkey, Japan and Tajikistan.

Japan's construction sector is particularly active in

the Middle East, undertaking a number of projects in

the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia where the

demand for infrastructure, hotels and industrial buildings

is very high. Asian economies, especially Thailand, Chi-

nese Taipei, Indonesia and Viet Nam, represented one-

third of Japan's construction exports in 2007.

Extra-EU(27) exports are less concentrated. Some 23 per cent are destined for Africa (of which, one-third go to Nigeria) and

18 per cent to the Middle East. Much of the construction work carried out in Africa and Central Asian countries is related to

the energy and tourism sectors. Asian economies (mainly China and India) attract 14 per cent of construction undertaken by

EU construction enterprises. Germany is the leading supplier of construction, accounting on average for over 40 per cent of EU

exports.

In 2006, Chinese building companies were engaged in Asian and African countries, working on the construction of electric

power plants, oil pipelines, housing and other infrastructure projects.

These fi gures do not take into account the large amount of construction services provided through foreign affi liates. Sales of

construction in foreign countries by affi liates of U.S. fi rms reached $13.9 billion in 2005. By comparison, the value of construc-

tion exports in the U.S. Balance of Payments was only $3.8 billion in 2005. Within the European Union, Germany's sales of

construction through foreign affi liates reached $16.2 billion in 2005, a 12 per cent increase. Sales of construction by the affi liates

of Japanese construction enterprises established abroad totalled around $4.4 billion in 2004.

Transactions are concentrated in developed economies

Royalties and licence fees

World receipts of royalties and licence fees amounted

to $155 billion in 2006. This represents about 11 per cent

of world exports of “other commercial services". World

receipts have grown by an annual average of 10 per cent

since 2000. However, in recent years these growth rates

have been declining, from 29 per cent in 2004 to 12

per cent in 2005 and 5 per cent in 2006. In 2006, US

national authorities registered 173,000 patents attributed

to residents and non-residents. During the same period

trademarks registered in the United States amounted to

154,000 while the European Union registered 71,000.

EU receipts rose twice as fast as North America's,

resulting in North America's share dropping from 54 to

43 per cent. Nevertheless, in 2006 the major recipient

of royalties and licence fees remained the United States, followed by the EU(27), Japan, Switzerland, Canada and the Republic

of Korea, which collectively amassed approximately 95 per cent of world receipts. Three-quarters of transactions were carried

out between these countries (including intra-EU(27). The largest payments within the EU were made by Ireland, with half going

to the United States and nearly a third to other EU countries, mainly the Netherlands.

Business, professional and technical services

A dynamic sector

Business, professional and technical services are

among the most thriving services sectors in developed

countries. These services range from legal to manage-

ment services, and from architectural to advertising serv-

per cent), legal, accounting, management, consulting and public relations services (18 per cent) and research and development

services (16 per cent) were the largest services sectors exported to extra-EU countries. The United States and Switzerland were

the main export markets, absorbing more than half of the exports bound for non-EU states.

The United States is the second-largest exporter of business, professional and technical services, with $61 billion worth of

exports. In 2006, over 16 million people were employed in this sector in the United States, more than in manufacturing, gener-

ating $1,414 billion in value added, around 11 per cent of GDP.

In certain developing economies such as India and Brazil, business, professional and technical services have become one of

the main export sectors. In 2006, they accounted for 42 per cent of Brazil's total commercial services exports. In 2007, they

accounted for 45 per cent of Brazil's total commercial services exports, totalling $10 billion. Architectural, engineering and other

technical consultancy services was the largest sector, followed by legal services.

Audiovisual services

EU exports decline

In 2006, EU exports of audiovisual services decreased

by 9 per cent. Since 2004, exports have declined by an

annual average of 8 per cent.

Within the European Union, the largest exporters of

audiovisual services are the United Kingdom and France,

which together account for 41 per cent of EU audiovisual

services exports. The United Kingdom's receipts from

these services declined by 7 per cent in 2006, partly due

to lower receipts for the United Kingdom fi lm industry.

French exports of audiovisual services lost 32 percent-

age points. Receipts from French fi lms distributed in

other countries decreased by 15 per cent as audience

numbers declined.

1. Composition of geographical and economic groupings

WTO members are frequently referred to as “countries”, although some members are not countries in the usual sense of

the word but are offi cially “customs territories”. The defi nition 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 classifi cations in

the maps of this publication do not imply, on the part of the WTO, any judgement on the legal or other status 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; the

Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, the Republic of Korea and the Separate

Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu are referenced as Bolivarian Rep. of Venezuela; Hong Kong, China; Korea,

Republic of; and Taipei, Chinese respectively.

2. Defi nitions and methodology

2.1 Merchandise trade

2.1.1 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 fi gures are larger than

the corresponding special trade fi gures because the latter exclude certain trade fl ows, such as goods shipped through bonded

warehouses.

To the extent possible, total merchandise trade is defi ned in this report according to the general trade defi nition. 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 substract from the stock of material resources of a country or

territory by entering (imports) or leaving (exports) the country’s economic territory. For further explanations, see United Nations

International Trade Statistics, Concepts and Defi nitions, Series M, N° 52, Revision 2.

Unless otherwise indicated, exports are valued at transaction value, including the cost of transportation and insurance to bring

the merchandise to the frontier of the exporting country or territory (“free on board” valuation). Imports are valued at transaction

value plus the cost of transportation and insurance to the frontier of the importing country or territory (“cost, insurance and freight”

valuation).

2.1.2 Products

All product groups are defi ned according to Revision 3 of the Standard International Trade Classifi cation (SITC).

2.1.3 World trade network

The world merchandise trade network by region and product from which Appendix tables A2 and A10 are derived is based

on export data. The network is constructed in the following way:

First, total merchandise exports from each of the seven regions are aggregated from the individual country or territory fi gures

published in Appendix table A6.

Next, the total merchandise exports of each region are distributed by destination and then by product. The regional and

commodity breakdown is based on UNSD Comtrade database, EUROSTAT, national statistics and Secretariat estimates.

During this process, the principal adjustments to the fi gures are as follows:

(i) Exports of ships to the open registry countries Panama and Liberia are re-allocated from each region’s exports to South and

Central America and Africa to “unspecifi ed destinations” (a category not shown separately).

(ii) China’s exports are adjusted to approximate their fi nal destination.

(iii) Exports of non-monetary gold, where known, are included. When they cannot be broken down by destination, they are

allocated to “unspecifi ed destinations”.

(iv) South Africa’s trade does not include trade with the former Southern African Customs Union members.

2.1.4 Merchandise trade of selected major traders by product, region and major trading partner

(Appendix tables A18 to A28)

These tables are derived from UNSD Comtrade and EUROSTAT. For trade by product, world totals include shipments which

have not been distinguished by origin or destination. For trade by region and partner, world totals include goods which have not

been specifi ed by product.

The following adjustment has been made to the fi gures:

Exports of ships to the open registry countries Panama and Liberia are reallocated from each economy’s exports to South and

Central America and Africa to “unspecifi ed destinations” (a category not shown separately).

The selection of each economy’s major trading partners is based on a ranking of total trade (exports plus imports) of each

economy with their trading partners in 2007 (member States of the EU (27) are counted as one trading partner).

2.1.5 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).

164

MET

ADAT

A

IV

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 refl ect the physical movement of goods across borders, while National Accounts and BOP statistics

record transactions that involve change in ownership.

The goods account in the BOP is generally compiled on the basis of IMTS after they have been adjusted for coverage, timing,

and valuation.

Coverage differences between BOP statistics and IMTS concern mainly:

items such as blueprints, videos, and tapes which are regarded as services within the BOP (hence are excluded from goods)

whereas they are included in merchandise trade statistics at the value of the material support;

goods that for practical reasons are excluded from merchandise trade but should in theory be recorded in BOP statistics,

such as fi sh and salvage sold abroad by resident vessels, or imports of bunkers and stores acquired abroad for mobile

equipment operated by residents;

goods under the improvement and repair trade regime should be excluded from IMTS, but they are to be included in the

goods account at the value of the repair under the BPM5;

Another coverage difference concerns goods that are imported in an economy where they undergo processing operations,

and are thereafter re-exported. IMTS recommends that these movements be recorded on a gross basis, whereas BPM5

distinguishes between goods that return to the country of origin (included within the goods account but reported separately)

and those that are sent to a third economy (such fl ows are considered as trade in general merchandise between the economy

of origin and fi nal destination, and should be excluded from the goods account of the economy where the processing takes

place)

The physical movement of goods across border measured in IMTS do not necessarily coincide in timing with changes in the

ownership of goods. BPM5 therefore recommends the application of specifi c adjustments for such cases.

As far as valuation is concerned, the issue that affects most data comparability concerns the point of valuation, namely,

whether goods are valued at the importer’s border - that is at the cost, insurance and freight value - or at the free on board value

at the exporter’s border. IMTS guidelines recommend the adoption of the c.i.f. valuation for imports whereas the fi fth edition of the

IMF’s Balance of Payments Manual (BPM5) requires the f.o.b. valuation. Additional adjustments may be made by BOP compilers to

conform to the BPM5 requirement for a market price for valuing trade, processing trade, and with respect to currency conversion.

Once adjusted, merchandise trade is recorded in the goods category of the current account, along with services, income, and

current transfers. Therefore, within the balance of payments framework transactions in both goods and services are harmonized

and provide for comparable statistical series. Strictly speaking, it is not correct to aggregate the fi gures for commercial services and

merchandise shown elsewhere in this report.

It should be noted that some economies still apply the concepts of the fourth edition of the Balance of Payments Manual, and

thus do not include goods for processing and goods procured in port carriers in the goods account.

2.2 Trade in commercial services

Depending on the location of the supplier and the consumer, the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) defi nes

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 cases where service suppliers are in the territory of the consumers to provide their services, whether

by establishing affi liates through direct investment abroad (mode 3 – commercial presence), or through the presence of natural

persons (mode 4).

A country’s balance of payments, that is 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 the local deliveries of

services through foreign affi liates that is required to estimate the size of mode 3. A framework for collecting these data, the “Foreign

Affi liates Trade in Services (FATS) statistics”, has been developed and adopted by the international statistical community in 2002.

Further information on these “new” statistics is developed below.

2.2.1 Trade in commercial services between residents and non residents of an economy

Exports and imports

Exports (credits or receipts) and imports (debits or payments) of commercial services derived from statistics on international

service transactions are included in the balance of payments statistics, in conformity with the concepts, defi nitions and classifi cation

of the fi fth (1993) edition of the IMF Balance of Payments Manual.

Defi nition of commercial services in the balance of payments

In the fi fth edition of the Balance of Payments Manual, the current account is subdivided into goods, services (including

government services, not included elsewhere), income (investment income and compensation of employees), and current transfers.

The commercial services category in this report is defi ned as being equal to services minus government services, not included

elsewhere. Commercial services is further sub-divided into transportation services, travel, and other commercial services.

Transportation services covers sea, air and other including land, internal waterway, space and pipeline transport services that

are performed by residents of one economy for those of another, and that involve the carriage of passengers, the movement of goods

(freight), rentals (charters) of carriers with crew, and related supporting and auxiliary services

Travel includes goods and services acquired by personal travellers, for health, education or other purposes, and by business

travellers. Unlike other services, travel is not a specifi c type of service, but an assortment of goods and services consumed by

travellers. The most common goods and services covered are lodging, food and beverages, entertainment and transportation (within

the economy visited), gifts and souvenirs.

Other commercial services corresponds to the following components defi ned in BPM5:

(i) communications services includes telecommunications, postal and courier services. Telecommunications services

encompasses the transmission of sound, images or other information by telephone, telex, telegram, radio and television cable

and broadcasting, satellite, electronic mail, facsimile services etc., including business network services, teleconferencing and

support services. It does not include the value of the information transported. Also included are cellular telephone services,

Internet backbone services and on-line access services, including provision of access to the Internet;

(ii) construction covers work performed on construction projects and installation by employees of an enterprise in locations

outside the territory of the enterprise (the one-year rule to determine residency is to be applied fl exibly). In addition goods

used by construction companies for their projects are included which implies that the “true” services component tends to be

overestimated;

(iii) insurance services covers the provision of various types of insurance to non residents by resident insurance enterprises, and

vice versa, for example, freight insurance, direct insurance (e.g. life) and reinsurance;

(iv) fi nancial services covers fi nancial intermediation and auxiliary services provided by banks, stock exchanges, factoring

enterprises, credit card enterprises, and other enterprises;

(v) computer and information services is subdivided into computer services (hardware and software related services and data

processing services), news agency services (provision of news, photographs, and feature articles to the media), and other

information provision services (database services and web search portals);

(vi) royalties and licence fees, covering payments and receipts for the use of intangible non-fi nancial assets and proprietary rights,

such as patents, copyrights, trademarks, industrial processes, and franchises;

(vii) other business services, comprising trade-related services, operational leasing (rentals), and miscellaneous business,

professional and technical services such as legal, accounting, management consulting, public relations services, advertising,

market research and public opinion polling, research and development services, architectural, engineering, and other

technical services, agricultural, mining and on-site processing; and

(viii) personal, cultural, and recreational services is subdivided into two categories, (i) audiovisual services and (ii) other cultural

and recreational services. The fi rst component includes services and fees related to the production of motion pictures, radio

and television programmes, and musical recordings. Other personal, cultural, and recreational services includes services

such as those associated with museums, libraries, archives, and other cultural, sporting, and recreational activities.

Coverage and comparability

With the implementation of BPM5, the coverage and comparability of services trade data have improved over time. However,

given that these improvements have been made gradually, they also resulted in a number of breaks in series and are subject to

signifi cant distortions.

First, some countries do not collect statistics for certain service categories. Second, some service transactions are simply

not registered. If central bank records are used, situations where no fi nancial intermediaries are employed are not counted. In

the case of surveys, the coverage of trading establishments is often incomplete. A particularly serious problem is that services

transmitted electronically are frequently unregistered as well as when the transactions take place within multinational corporations.

Third, statistics may be reported on a net rather than on a gross basis, often as a result of compensation arrangements such as

in rail transport or in communication services. Fourth some services transactions may be diffi cult to capture. It is often easier

for compilers to collect more complete and reliable information on trade in services exports rather than on imports given the large

number and diversity of importers compared to that of exporters, e.g. fi nancial services, computer services. Fifth, some particular

service transactions may not be classifi ed to the appropriate BPM5 services classifi cation. Methodologies to build estimates for

certain service categories may also differ between economies, notably due to the continuing efforts to improve these statistics.

Some economies have made progress in the estimation of insurance services to take into account premium supplements and

claim volatility (i.e. in the case of catastrophic events). Sixth, the alternate sources used for countries which are not members of

the IMF do not necessarily comply with the IMF concepts and defi nitions. Seventh, misclassifi cation of transactions may lead to

an underestimation of commercial services when service transactions are registered as income, transfers or trade in merchandise

rather than trade in services or, conversely, to an overestimation of commercial services when transactions pertaining to income,

transfers or offi cial transactions are registered in the private service categories.

These distortions may be particularly signifi cant at the detailed level, i.e., for a detailed service category, and may lead to

considerable asymmetries between countries’ reported trade fl ows by origin and destination.

The estimation of world trade by services components has been based on reported economy data as shown in the following table:

First, total trade in commercial services from each of the seven regions is aggregated from the individual economy fi gures

published. The breakdown of these data is then applied to missing countries before aggregating regional and world totals. Tables

on major traders are based on reported data only.

Intra-trade of the European Union

The principal source for trade in commercial services are the IMF’s Balance-of-Payments statistics. Intra-EU trade fi gures

have been estimated from statistics included in the New Cronos database, July 2008.

2.2.2 Foreign affi liates trade in services statistics

The new statistical framework on Foreign Affi liates Trade in Services (FATS) statistics is developed in the Manual on Statistics

of International Trade in Services. The acronym FATS is also used for “foreign affi liates statistics”. Both refer to the same statistical

framework, the former focusing on services trade. It analyses the universe of foreign affi liates for which foreign investors own

more than 50 per cent of the voting power or equity interest. Depending on the compiler’s view, one can distinguish inward FATS,

that is, activities of foreign-owned affi liates in the compiling economy, or, outward FATS, that is, foreign affi liates of the compiling

economy active abroad. Variables such as sales, value added, number of employees, etc. are used to describe the affi liates’

activities. These variables are broken down by country of origin or destination of investments and also by type of primary activity.

Australia and the United States also provide a breakdown of sales into total goods and total services products. FATS statistics are

currently available mainly for OECD and a small number of non-OECD economies. However, 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. From a GATS perspective, the size of mode 3 in a given country can be

approximated through the sales of foreign-owned affi liates.

2.3 Other defi nitions and methods

2.3.1. Annual changes

Throughout this report, average annual percentage changes are analogous to compound interest rates. In calculating the

average annual rate of change between 2000 and 2005, for example, data for calendar year 2000 were taken as the starting point,

and data for calendar year 2005 as the end point.

2.3.2 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 International Financial Statistics. Aggregates

for all primary commodities and for non-fuel primary commodities are calculated using IMF weights (Appendix table A29).

Export and import prices by commodity group of Germany, Japan and the United States are sourced from national statistics.

Aggregates are calculated by weighting the countries’ price indices with the respective export and import values of the previous year

(Appendix tables A30 and A31).

2.3.3 World merchandise trade indices

The volume and unit value indices are taken from a range of different international and national sources. The reported

volume and unit value 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 unit values from national and

international sources are completed 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 the corresponding

regional unit value index.

Second, to obtain the total world merchandise volume index, regional unit value indices are aggregated and the world trade

value is defl ated by the world unit value index. Throughout the aggregation process trade values of the previous year are used as

weights.

2.3.4 World production

Production of agriculture (including hunting, forestry and fi sh), mining and manufacturing is defi ned according to major

Categories A, B, C and D of the International Standard Industrial Classifi cation of all Economic Activities Revision 3 (ISIC). World

production in these sectors is estimated by combining production indices published by the FAO, OECD, UNIDO and UNSD. The

world index is derived through aggregation of the three sectors by using value added shares in 2000 as weights.

2.3.5 World gross domestic product

World GDP growth is estimated as a weighted average of economies’ real GDP growth. The weights used are shares of

economies in 2000 world nominal GDP converted to dollars at market exchange rates.

The use of offi cial exchange rates which are not market-based for some major economies, together with the fl uctuations of

the United States dollar vis-à-vis major currencies, can have a signifi cant 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 infl uence on the global growth estimate. For the 2000-2005 period, global growth estimates based on PPP-weights

indicate a signifi cantly 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. Relative to weights based on GDP at market exchange rates, PPP weights are

low for the transition economies - especially the successor States of the former USSR with a poor growth record, and high for major

developing countries (in particular China) with above average growth.

2.3.6 Re-exports and re-imports

Under the system of general trade adopted in this report, re-exports are included in total merchandise trade (see

Section II.1).

However, in the case of Hong Kong, China, the magnitude of its re-exports (amounting in 2007 to $331 billion), if included

in regional or world aggregates, would adversely affect the analytical value of the statistics by introducing a signifi cant element of

double counting. Therefore, Hong Kong, China’s re-exports are excluded from the world and from Asia aggregates (unless otherwise

indicated); only Hong Kong, China’s domestic exports and retained imports are included in the totals. For this reason, the fi gures

for world exports and for exports of Asia shown in Appendix tables A2 and A10 are smaller than those in Appendix table A6. When

retained imports are not published, an approximation is made on the basis of re-export values.

China reports imports from China (re-imports), a trade fl ow which accounted for 9.0 per cent ($85.8 billion) of its total

merchandise imports in 2007. These imports consist of products which have been produced in China and thereafter temporarily

exported. The product structure of China’s imports from China indicates that in absolute terms offi ce and telecom equipment

is the largest category ($42.9 billion) in this particular trade fl ow. The share of re-imports is particularly large in the imports of

telecommunications equipment (37.5 per cent), EDP and offi ce equipment (33.7 per cent), electrical machinery (25.8 per cent) and

in textiles (20.0 per cent). Further information on these imports is provided in Box 2 of the International Trade Statistics 2005.

3. Specifi c notes for selected economies

3.1 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 defi nitions adopted by the EU are in

line with the United Nations’ International Trade Statistics, Concepts and Defi nitions, 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 fi rms for transactions above a minimum value, is not as wide as the previous one, which was based on 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 fi gure for EU imports as a whole. This adjustment

is also refl ected in the volume estimates for the EU as a whole.

3.2 Egypt’s export processing zone

Egypt’s merchandise trade statistics are based on the special trade system, and exclude processing zone exchanges with the

rest of the world. These have increased markedly in recent years. In 2006, processing zone imports from and exports to the rest of

the world amounted to $4.6 billion and $4.6 billion respectively. If Egypt’s merchandise trade data were adjusted accordingly, the

size of its exports of manufactures (in particular clothing) would be signifi cantly higher.

3.3 Trade of South Africa with SACU (South African Customs Union)

South Africa’s merchandise exports (and imports) exclude shipments to (from) other SACU members (Botswana, Lesotho,

Namibia and Swaziland). Partner statistics indicate that South African shipments amount to 80 percent of these countries’ total

merchandise imports in 2002. This share – most likely – increased thereafter and represents an important trade fl ow for the African

region. If South Africa’s exports would be adjusted for these shipments to SACU members, its total exports would increase by at

least $5 billion in 2007 and intra-African trade would be substantially higher, with intra-SACU trade being the largest intra trade fl ow

for regional trade agreements in Africa.

3.4 Major breaks in data continuity of merchandise trade

Between 1997 and 1998 for the Russian Federation due to the use of Balance of Payments methodology by GOSKOMSTAT

starting 1998.

Beginning 2003, Singapore includes merchandise trade with Indonesia.

Between 1994 and 1995 for Ukraine, due to a change in data collection procedures.

Between 1996 and 1997 for the Slovak Republic, and between 1997 and 1998 for Poland, due to the introduction of new

arrangements in customs procedures to harmonize with the standards of the European Union.

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 offi cial estimates of infl ows of goods

which enter the economy without being registered by the customs authorities. Such adjustments to import data accounted for 11

per cent of the offi cially reported totals in 2007; and, on the export side, for about 1 per cent of total reported exports.

Merchandise trade fl ows between the European Union member States include trade associated with fraudulent VAT

declaration, which concerns mainly offi ce 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.

3.5 Trade in insurance services of the United States

In 2003, the United States revised its methodology for estimating trade in insurance services. The new methodology measures

insurance services as premiums less normal claims. Normal claims comprise two components: “regularly occurring claims” that

are calculated as an average of all claims paid during the previous six years, and a share of “catastrophic claims” that is added-on

to “regularly occurring claims” in equal increments over the two decades following their event.

As comprehensive data collection on insurance services started in 1986, the fi rst six-year average of “regularly occurring

claims” could only be calculated for 1992. As a result, time series on trade in insurance services, and consequently on other

commercial services, have been revised back to 1992. To complete the 2003 revision, in 2004 the United States added to insurance

services an estimate of premium supplements (or income earned on technical reserves of insurance companies). Insurance

companies provide fi nancial protection to policy holders through the pooling of risk and provide fi nancial intermediation services

through the investment of reserves. The income is treated as accruing to the policy holders who pay it back to the insurers as

supplements to premiums to cover the full cost of insurance. The investment income of insurance companies is not output in and

of itself; it is used to impute the value of the implicit component of insurance services attributable to fi nancial intermediation.

3.6 Travel exports and transportation services exports and imports of Japan

In order to enhance the coverage of estimates of travel exports and imports, the Bank of Japan and the Japanese Ministry of

Finance reviewed their compilation methodology, notably by including results from a new expenditure survey of foreign travellers as

of 2003. This revision had a major impact on the estimates for travel exports. This methodology was reviewed in 2007 based on the

results of a new survey (International Travelers’ Survey on Expenditures) which are used in the new compilation method to directly

estimate the amounts spent by travelers to pay for goods and services. This applies to exports and imports data as from 2006. In

order to maintain consistent growth rates, data shown in this report for Japanese 1995-2005 travel trade and trade in commercial

services include provisional Secretariat estimates referring to the new compilation methodology (i.e. after January 2006) applied by

the Japanese authorities and therefore they differ from 1995-2005 fi gures available elsewhere.

Data shown for transportation services in this report are consistent with revised 1996-2004 data published in 2006 by the

Bank of Japan (based on a new methodology for measuring sea freight fares).

3.7 Trade in other commercial services of India

In the course of 2004, the Reserve Bank of India released new data following the introduction of a new reporting system to

improve the coverage of Indian trade in services statistics (mainly affecting the item other business services).

3.8 Trade in commercial services of United Arab Emirates

Commercial services trade statistics of United Arab Emirates only cover transportation and travel.

3.9 Trade in commercial services of Nigeria

New data from 2005 compiled on the basis of BPM5 recommendations were released by the Bank of Nigeria in 2007. This

results in a break in series for Nigerian data in 2005.

4. Statistical sources

Most frequently used sources for statistics are:

EUROSTAT, Comext and New Cronos databases

FAO, FAOSTAT Agriculture database

FAO, Production Yearbook

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

World Bank, World Development Indicators

These sources are supplemented by national publications and other international databases such as the Global Trade Atlas of

Global Trade Information Services, Inc. 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 Eurostat’s Comext database and UNSD’s 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. For 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. Statistics on trade in commercial services by origin and destination are also derived from national statistics.

GDP series in current dollars are mainly derived from the World Bank World Development Indicators, supplemented in some

cases with statistics from the IMF World Economic Outlook database.

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

Closing date for merchandise trade statistics (Customs basis) and commercial services (Balance of Payments basis) is 15 July

2008. For foreign affi liates trade in services statistics the closing date is 31 August 2008.

a Includes significant re-exports.

c Beginning with 1998, figures refer to South Africa only and no longer to the Southern African Customs Union.

Recent figures for a number of countries and territories have been estimated by the Secretariat.


b Prior to 2004, European Union (27) individual country data do not add up to the reported aggregate due to Eurostat's use of different methodologies for Cyprus, Estonia and Lithuania.

Note: 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.

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.


(Million dollars)

a Includes significant imports for re-export.

Recent figures for a number of countries and territories have been estimated by the Secretariat.

b Imports are valued f.o.b. See the Metadata on f.o.b. valuation of other economies. c Beginning with 1998, figures refer to South Africa only and no longer to the Southern African Customs Union. Note: 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.

Unspecified products account for 1.4 per cent of total intra-EU trade, and intra-EU imports are under-recorded. To compensate for this under-recording, intra-EU exports have been used to obtain total (World) imports. Major trading partners were selected on the basis of 2007 data.

2008

“International Trade Statistics 2008” offers a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in

world trade, covering the details of merchandise trade by product and trade in commercial services by

category. Each chapter is introduced by a highlights section that identifi es the most salient trends in

the data and illustrates them with numerous charts and maps. There is also a methodological chapter

that explains essential concepts and defi nitions used in compiling the statistics, and an appendix with

detailed data on trade by region up to 2007.

This year’s edition expands the coverage of merchandise trade, including new tables on exports and

imports of food and fuels by selected economies. All data used in the publication, as well as additional

charts not included in the book, can be downloaded from the WTO web site at stat.wto.org. With these

additions, “International Trade Statistics 2008” will continue to serve as an invaluable reference for

researchers, policy makers, and anyone interested in international trade.
