Growth of trade volumesAnnual % change
Global trade patterns are changing...• Trade flows within regions account for a higher share of world
trade than flows between regions
• Asia Pacific & EU trade more within the region
• However many regions trade more with other regions than internally: Africa, South and Central America, Middle East and CIS
...with developing countries gaining ground...

...significantly due to FDI... • In spite of quick growth in traded value, over the past 30 years
the share of services, excluding Mode 3 (commercial presence), in global trade has been quite stable around 20%
• BUT, Mode 3 is not captured in current trade in services statistics
• FDI data shows that more than half of FDI flows are in the services sector
• FDI keeps on growing globally...

Trade MapA web-based trade flow analysis tool
Introduction• An exporter of pineapples is looking to diversify its client base…Which
country should be targeted?
• A shoe exporter needs an overview of trade barriers he/she would face for exports to Malaysia…
• A trade mission needs to know our top export products to Germany…
• Where could you import automotive components from?Who are the largest suppliers in your region?
• What is the current trade between your country and the United States?
Initial answers to these questions and many more are easily found in Trade Map
Trade Map• Online application to produce reports on international trade flows
• Every product (HS-6) to and from (almost) every country
• Based on probably the largest trade flow database in the world
• User-friendly interface, report-ready outputs
• Flexibility for customising reports, analysis
• Graphic presentation of outputs to facilitate analysis
Key characteristics • Where does the data come from?
• National Authorities
• COMTRADE, produced by the United Nations Statistics Division database
• What is Trade Map’s geographical coverage?
• Information for over 220 countries and territories using data reported by 160 countries and territories
• Data for non-reporting countries is spawned from mirror statistics
• What is Trade Map’s product coverage?
• For the Harmonized System
• over 5,300 products at the 6 digit level
• For the National Tariff Line
• up to 30,000 products for 90 countries (~84% of world trade)
• What is Trade Map’s time horizon?
• Yearly, quarterly and monthly data
Data classification• The Harmonized System (HS)
• Is used as a basis for the collection of Custom duties and international trade statistics by almost all countries, representing about 98% of world trade
• Developed by the World Customs Organisation – WCO (www.wcoomd.org)
• Implemented late 1980s.
• Harmonised different existing nomenclatures
• Adopted by almost all countries in the world
• Basis for all trade conversations internationally
• Main revisions in 1996 and 2007
HS-2
HS-4
HS-6
Data classification• The Harmonized System (HS)
• Is a numerical classification system of products used as a basis for international trade statistics by almost all countries.
• is harmonized up to six digits (HS-6) - You can compare HS data between countries.
• Is broken down into 3 clusters:
• HS-2: the chapter of the good (sector)
• E.g. 09 = Coffee, Tea, Mate and Spices
• HS-4: groupings within the chapter (sub-sector)
• E.g. 0902 = Tea, whether or not flavoured
• HS-6: product(s) within the grouping (product level)
• E.g. 090210 = Green tea (not fermented)

Data classification• National Tariff Lines (NTL) codes
• Classification of goods after the 6 digit level of the Harmonized System classification.
• National Tariff Lines go from 8 digits to 12 digits.
• Why use the HS and NTL classification?
• The HS classification is standardised internationally
• The NTL classification is not standardised internationally.
Each country decides its own further classification after the Harmonized System. Hence, National Tariff Line codes can be different from a country to another.

Market Access MapInformation on tariffs and other market access conditions
Market Access
• Information on market access conditions allows exporters to:
• Evaluate the competitiveness of the product relative to suppliers from other countries under different tariff schemes
• Select markets/market segments in which the product has the best prospects
• Adapt, where necessary, the product to conform to the target market’s import regulations
Types of tariffs• Ad valorem tariffs:
• Levied on the basis of the value
• Used by most countries; more than 87% of tariffs worldwide are ad valorem
Ad valorem tariffs
E.g. Australian tariff of 5% on imported wine (22.04.21.20.70)
New Zealand wine:• AUD 6 / litre
French wine:• AUD 8 / litre
Tariff paid:AUD 0.30 /litre
Tariff paid:AUD 0.40 /litre
Tariff per unit = Price * Rate
Types of tariffs• Ad valorem tariffs:
• Levied on the basis of the value
• Used by most countries: more than 87% of tariffs worldwide are ad valorem
• Specific tariffs:• Levied on the basis of volume or weight• Users of specific tariffs include (% of MFN tariff lines): Switzerland (79.8%),
Thailand (21.9%), Russia (12.2%), Argentina (12.1%), Belarus (11.9%), USA (8.2%), EU (4.6%)

Thailand (21.9%), Russia (12.2%), Argentina (12.1%), Belarus (11.9%), USA (8.2%), EU (4.6%)
• Combined tariffs:• Contain both ad valorem and specific rates• Eg: 10% of the value + $2 per kilogram (Japan, EU, Canada)
Compound tariffs
• Chocolate from Switzerland: USD 6,356 / ton
• Chocolate from Brazil: USD 3,181 / ton

E.g. USA tariff on chocolate of 4.3% and USD528 / ton (18.06.32.08)
Types of tariffs• Mixed tariffs:
• Minimum or maximum of two kinds of tariffs
• Eg: Min or Max (10%, $2/kg) (Canada, EU, Japan)
Mixed tariffs
• Manolo Blahnik shoes: USD1,000 /pair
• Clark's shoes: USD30 /pair
Tariff: the maximum of
30% Ad Valorem USD300 Tariff
Or JPY4,300/pair (USD36) Specific USD36 Tariff
Tariff: the maximum of
30% Ad Valorem USD9 Tariff
Or JPY4,300/pair (USD36) Specific USD36 Tariff
Tariff = USD36AVE= 120%
Tariff = USD300AVE= 30%
e.g. Japanese tariff on shoes: Max. of 30% or JPY4,300 Yen / pair
Types of tariffs• Mixed tariffs:
• Minimum or maximum of two kinds of tariffs
• Eg: Min or Max (10%, $2/kg) (Canada, EU, Japan)
• Variable tariffs: • Levied on the basis of the composition of the products
• Eg: USD5/unit if lead content of paint > 2% on toys
• USD200/unit on fridges if cooling system is not CFC-free
Types of tariffs• Mixed tariffs:
• minimum or maximum of two kinds of tariffs
• Eg: Min or Max (10%, $2/kg) (Canada, EU, Japan)
• Variable tariffs: • Levied on the basis of the composition of the products
• Eg: USD5/unit if lead content of paint > 2% on toys
• USD200/unit on fridges if cooling system is not CFC-free
• Tariff quotas:• A two tiered tariff. A lower in-quota tariff is applied to the first Q units of
imports and a higher over-quota tariff is applied to all subsequent imports.
MAcMap includes ad valorem equivalents• Ad Valorem Equivalents – AVE:
• Are a common measure of the effecteffect of the different types of tariff on the product, as if they were all ad valorem.
• Are calculated for specific, mixed, compound or variable tariffs and anti-dumping rates and countervailing duties
• Are calculated by:
AVE = Particular Tariff per Unit Unit Value
• Allow for regional or sectoral tariffs to be added and compared
• Allow for comparison of effective levels of protection across countries.
• The total AVE is the sum of all individual ad valorem equivalents
Common types of trade agreements• Partial Scope Agreement: reduces trade restrictions between partner
countries for a few products
• Free Trade Zone/Agreement/Area: eliminates trade barriers within the zone (FTA, RTA, etc.)
• Customs Union: free trade zone + common external tariff
• Common Market: customs union + free flow of factors of production within region (capital, labour)
• Economic Union: unification/harmonization of economic policies: monetary policy, fiscal policy, regulatory regimes…

Implications• Almost every country in the world is member to an ever
increasing number of trade agreements
• Every trade agreement has its own rules of origin
• It is difficult to keep up-to-date on what tariffs are applied and faced by your country and your competitor countries
• It is confusing to understand what are the best conditions you face to access one specific market
• It is key to have more clarity and transparency on what tariffs and rules of origin apply to specific products in specific markets
Features of MAcMap• Wide geographical coverage:
• tariffs applied by 169 countries to the products exported by over 200 countries and territories
• Wide coverage of instruments:
• ad-valorem tariffs; specific tariffs; tariff quotas and antidumping duties
• Preferences:
• Covers most bilateral and regional agreements
• Rules of Origin and Certificates of origin also included for most agreements
• Analytical flexibility:
• Permits any analysis: by region, by economic sector or by measure
MAcMap: sources of data• Market Access Map is continuously updated. Data is sourced
from:
• Applied tariff data is collected by ITC directly from national customs institutions
• Tariff quota data from WTO (agricultural notification of tariff quota) and national sources for bilateral and regional tariff quota agreements
• Trade data from national sources, IDB (integrated database), WTO and the COMTRADE database of the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD).
Investment MapFor an improved identification of opportunitiesfor FDI attraction
What is it?• An interactive tool that combines statistics on FDI, international
trade, tariffs and information on foreign affiliates for better investment targeting and promotion
• A joint undertaking
• Between the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and the International Trade Centre (UNCTAD/WTO)
• In partnership with:
• Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA)
• World Association of Investment Promotion Agencies (WAIPA)
Main features• Integrates data on
• FDI flows and stocks
• Trade flows
• Tariffs
• Information on activities of foreign affiliates in developing countries
• Presents data and analyses in multi-functional dimensions and graphs
• Links to other related resources:
• UNCTAD World Investment Directory and Investment Compass
• World Bank and third party indicators on business environment
• World Bank privatisation database
Geographic coverage• Total FDI flows and stocks for around 80 countries and territories
• FDI flows and stocks partially classified by up to 150 industries (ISIC rev 3)
• covering goods and services in approximately 60 developing and transition economies
• Trade and tariff data covering over 180 countries and territories
• Information on the location, sales, employment and parent company for around 74,000 foreign affiliates in developing countries
Sources of Data• Foreign Direct Investment: UNCTAD and ITC
• Trade data: Trade Map (ITC)
• Tariffs: Market Access Map (ITC)
• Activities on Foreign Affiliates: Dun & Bradstreet Database
Data limitations• FDI
• International reporting practices (IMF BOPMV; OECD,2004) are not followed uniformly
• Countries that report often do so with considerable time lag
• FDI data are affected by:
• Identification of ultimate owner
• Valuation problems of FDI stocks
• Round-tripped investment and transhipped investment
• Foreign affiliates
• Data on foreign affiliates vary from country to country
• Data available ONLY for developing countries
• Dependant on quality of business registration information
• Different data classifications:
• FDI data cannot always be allocated accurately to a given industry or a given country
• Investment flows may fall under multiple activities
• Foreign affiliates are based on the United States nomenclature, US SIC87.
• Its conversion to the ISIC nomenclature can only be approximative
• Trade data (HS 6 digit level) are converted into the ISIC classification.
Data limitations
Measuring FDI
FDI flows
• Are the total amount of FDI undertaken over a given period of time (quarter, year), and they comprise:
• Net sales of shares with the parent company (10% participation threshold)
• Net intra-company loans (short- and long- term) with the parent company
• Reinvested earnings of a foreign affiliate in the host country
• Sources: Central Banks and/or Statistical offices
Measuring FDI
FDI stocks
• Are the total accumulated value of foreign-owned assets at a given time, and they comprise:
• The value of the share of their capital and reserves belonging to foreign companies
• The net indebtedness with the parent companies
• Sources: Balance sheets or enterprise surveys
Flow
Flow
• Stocks and flows are related over time:
• Stockt = Stockt-1 + Flowt
• Flowt = Stockt – Stockt-1
Measuring FDI
Stock
• Flows are named according to the OWNERSHIP or Origin of the money, not the direction of the flow:
• ININflows = FOREIGNFOREIGN money
• OUTOUTflows = DOMESTICDOMESTIC money
Measuring FDI
Structure of tool• Module 1: Identify industries for inward investment
• Foreign Direct Investment: e.g. inflows, stocks, changes, etc
• Foreign affiliates: e.g. number of affiliates, number of employees, leading parent company and investor country, addresses, etc
• International Trade: e.g. exports, imports, changes, etc
• Tariffs: Maximum, minimum and average tariff faced and applied, etc
• Module 2: Identify competing locations
• Similar information for competing locations for a specific industry
• Module 3: Identify investor countries
• Similar information for the main investor countries for a specific industry
• Module 4: Analyse investor profile
• Similar information classified per industry for any specific investor country
