One year of war in Ukraine
This note examines how the war in Ukraine has affected global trade. It looks at how exports from Russia and Ukraine have evolved over the past year. It then analyses how countries highly dependent on Russian or Ukrainian exports of agricultural and primary goods have responded to the crisis and how prices and trade in goods greatly affected by the war have developed. These impacts reveal the repercussions of the war for developing economies and demonstrate the resilience of the multilateral trading system. This note highlights that a widespread push to reconsolidate global supply chains based on geopolitical considerations would come at a high cost. Reduced growth prospects could be particularly large for many developing countries especially least-developed countries. Their opportunity costs of foregoing further multilateral liberalization and moving to geopolitical rivalry instead could amount to 11.3 per cent of real GDP – placing further strain on the fragile situation triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Director-General’s annual overview of trade-related developments discussed on 12 December at a meeting of the Trade Policy Review Body shows that trade restrictions by WTO members continue at historically high levels. Between mid-October 2018 and mid-October 2019 the trade coverage of import-restrictive measures implemented by members was estimated at USD 747 billion. This is the highest trade coverage recorded since October 2012 and represents an increase of 27% compared to the figure recorded in the previous annual overview (USD 588 billion). The report notes that new trade restrictions and increasing trade tensions added to the uncertainty surrounding international trade and the world economy.

Informe sobre el Comercio Mundial 2019
Los servicios se han convertido en el componente más dinámico del comercio mundial y desempeñan un papel cada vez más importante en la economía mundial y en la vida cotidiana. Sin embargo no siempre se valora plenamente su grado de contribución al comercio mundial. El Informe sobre el comercio mundial 2019 trata de colmar esta laguna utilizando un nuevo conjunto de datos elaborado por la OMC que tiene en cuenta las distintas formas de suministrar servicios a través de las fronteras. En el Informe se examina la evolución del comercio de servicios en los últimos años y el porqué de su importancia. Asimismo se analizan las principales tendencias que afectan al comercio de servicios en particular los cambios demográficos las tecnologías digitales el aumento de la renta y el cambio climático. También se ofrecen estimaciones sobre la posible evolución del comercio de servicios en los próximos 20 años y las perspectivas de una mayor cooperación internacional en las políticas relativas al comercio de servicios. El Informe muestra que los costos del comercio son más elevados para los servicios que para las mercancías si bien están disminuyendo como consecuencia de las tecnologías digitales. Se espera que esa reducción de los costos del comercio aumente la participación de los servicios en el comercio mundial y contribuya a un crecimiento y un desarrollo más inclusivos. Para que las economías puedan beneficiarse del mayor protagonismo que está adquiriendo el comercio de servicios será necesario intensificar la cooperación internacional.
Rapport sur le commerce mondial 2019
Les services sont devenus la composante la plus dynamique du commerce mondial et jouent un rôle de plus en plus important dans l’économie mondiale et dans la vie quotidienne. Pourtant l’importance de la contribution des services au commerce mondial n’est pas toujours bien comprise. Le Rapport sur le commerce mondial 2019 tente d’y remédier en utilisant un nouvel ensemble de données élaboré par l’OMC qui prend en compte les différentes façons dont les services sont fournis à travers les frontières. Le Rapport examine la manière dont le commerce des services a évolué ces dernières années et se penche sur la question de savoir pourquoi le commerce des services compte. Les grandes tendances qui influent sur le commerce des services y compris l’évolution démographique les technologies numériques la hausse des revenus et le changement climatique sont examinées. Le Rapport donne aussi des estimations concernant l’évolution possible du commerce des services au cours des 20 prochaines années et les perspectives en matière de renforcement de la coopération internationale dans le domaine des politiques relatives au commerce des services. Le Rapport constate que les coûts du commerce des services sont plus élevés que ceux du commerce des marchandises mais qu’ils diminuent en grande partie sous l’effet des technologies numériques. Il montre en quoi la baisse des coûts du commerce devrait accroître la part des services dans le commerce mondial et en quoi cela pourrait contribuer à une croissance et un développement plus inclusifs. Pour que les économies puissent tirer parti du rôle croissant joué par le commerce des services la coopération internationale devra s’intensifier.
