Trade monitoring
Coopération avec les autres organisations internationales
En 2014, l’OMC a coopéré avec diverses organisations intergouvernementales, dont l’Organisation des Nations Unies, l’Organisation de coopération et de développement économiques (OCDE), le Fonds monétaire international (FMI) et la Banque mondiale. L’OMC a aussi publié, en collaboration avec la Conférence des Nations Unies sur le commerce et le développement (CNUCED) et l’OCDE, des rapports sur l’évolution du commerce et de l’investissement dans les pays du Groupe des 20 (G-20), composé des principaux pays développés et en développement.
Supply chains and services
Supply chain production has likely made production more services-intensive. Only recently has the extent of reliance on services in supply chains become evident, particularly since global trade statistics measured in value-added terms were developed. However, a full understanding of the role of services in supply chains remains elusive. Recent work reported here attempts to capture the multiplicity of distinct services implicated in supply chain production; the interdependent nature of markets; the tendency towards reliance on networks and the resultant bundling or modularising of product offerings that combine different goods and services; the role of services as a driver of innovation; services as a potentially untapped source of value-added capture, and a range of data challenges that will take time to resolve.Supply chain production has likely made production more services-intensive.
