6World Trade Developments in 2005

1. Highlights of world trade in 2005

After reaching a three-decade peak in 2004, global economic growth decelerated in 2005 mainly due to weaker economic activity in Europe, the United States and a number of emerging markets (e.g. the Republic of Korea, Chinese Taipei and Brazil). While Japan’s economic recovery strengthened, its GDP growth was still a moderate 2.6 per cent. Lower economic growth of developed economies contrasted with robust growth in 2005 for Africa, the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States, which was in excess of 5 per cent. In developing Asia, China and India, the most populous economies reported another year of exceptional growth rates ranging from 8per cent to 10 per cent. In South and Central America, lower GDP growth in Brazil contrasted with strong growth, of 6.5 per cent, for the other countries in the region.

Lower economic activity at the global level caused a deceleration in the expansion of world merchandise and services trade. The volume of merchandise exports rose by 6 per cent, significantly faster than world merchandise production. Manufacturing output continued to grow faster than the mining and agricultural sectors, and for each sector, trade growth remained stronger than output growth. Trade to GDP ratios are crude measures of globalization; nevertheless, using these measures, openness can be shown to have risen further in all regions in 2005.

The steep rise in fuel prices in the course of 2005 resulted in sharply higher prices for internationally traded goods but did not trigger a general rise in domestic prices as measured by the GDP deflator or consumer price indices. Prices for internationally traded manufactured goods and agricultural products increased even less in 2005 than in 2004, partly due to the relative strength of the US dollar vis-à-vis the currencies of major traders (Chart 1). The moderate appreciation of the Chinese Yuan vis-à-vis the US dollar since mid-2005, when the Chinese authorities allowed greater flexibility in the Yuan, and the high growth rate of the Chinese economy did not lead to a stronger rise in Chinese export prices. The United States’ import prices of manufactured goods from all sources stagnated in 2005 with prices of imports from China even showing a small decline.1 But the very modest price increase of traded manufactured goods tends to conceal larger variations at a more disaggregated level. In particular, export prices of electronic goods continued to decline while those of iron and steel products and chemicals recorded above average increases.

The higher fuels prices contributed to big changes in regional trade flows, boosting the exports of the oil exporting regions and economies and stimulating their import growth of goods and services. The export share of the oil exports rose sharply while those of oil importers tended to decline in world exports. A major exception to this pattern is China which, despite the fact of being a net-importer of fuels, reported much faster export than import growth in 2005.

The phase out of the WTO Agreement on Textiles and Clothing (ATC) and the end of the quantitative restrictions in early 2005 had a major impact on international trade in textiles and clothing, even though some restrictions were re-introduced on China’s textiles and clothing exports in the second half of 2005. One of the major repercussions of the lifting of the last

1 The stability in US import prices of manufactured goods continued into the first half of 2006.

textile quotas in Canada, the EU and the United States was a shift among the principal suppliers to these markets. As shown already in WTR 2006, China and India made significant inroads in market share while many suppliers from South and Central America and Africa lost market shares, and in some cases, recorded absolute declines in their shipments of textiles and clothing. A number of Asian NICs also reported further decreases in their textiles and clothing shipments in 2005.

The developments in merchandise trade flows contributed to a further rise in global current account imbalances. Oil-exporting economies and regions increased further their trade surplus as did many Asian economies, while the United States’ trade deficit rose to $ 783 billion equivalent to nearly 8 per cent of world merchandise trade. Exchange rate developments of the Yen and the European currencies in the course of 2005 did not support a reduction in the United States’ current account deficit while the strength of the Canadian dollar most likely played a part in the rise of US exports to Canada. The small appreciation of the Chinese Yuan in the second half of 2005 had apparently no impact on the overall bi-lateral trade flows between China and the United States (Chart 2).

The rapid development of China’s trade since joining the WTO in 2001 has enhanced its role in international trade. China became the third largest merchandise trader in 2004 and is likely to become the number two trader (exports plus imports) in 2007 (on a country basis). In the past, two aspects of China’s rise in trade caught a lot of attention: first the impact of China’s exports on developed country markets and on its own development. Since 2003 China has emerged as a principal market of primary products while post-ATC textiles trade developments increased the awareness that China’s exports are affecting the exports of other developing countries in third markets and heightening competition within developing countries home markets. This overview of 2005 trade developments highlights some features of China’s trade with Africa, showing that trade has more than tripled in both directions since 2002 and that China’s imports from Africa exceed its exports to Africa. It also shows

that the product structure of the bilateral trade flow is highly complementary as China largely exports manufactured goods and imports principally non-manufactured goods, mainly fuels and some agricultural products, from Africa.

2. Merchandise trade volume and output developments in 2005

In 2005, the volume of merchandise exports rose by 6 per cent. Although this year’s annual growth represents a marked deceleration compared with that of the preceding year, it remained above the average expansion of the period 2000-05. The deceleration of real merchandise trade growth can be largely attributed to moderation in the shipments of manufactured goods, by far the largest component of world merchandise trade. Nevertheless, the 2005 expansion of nearly 7 per cent was still somewhat stronger than the annual average growth over the 2000-05 period and faster than that of trade in the two other sectors.

In 2005, trade growth in the mining sector slowed sharply to 2.5 per cent in real terms while production increased only marginally by 1 per cent (Chart 3 and Table I.1). Tight production capacities combined with sharply higher prices limited the expansion of trade in mining products, producing the weakest expansion of all sectors.

In contrast to the trade of manufactured and mining products, trade in agricultural products gained momentum in 2005 growing at 5.3 per cent, the strongest annual increase since 1997. Robust trade growth contrasted with the near stagnation of global agricultural production. The acceleration in world exports of agricultural products in volume terms can be linked to

North America’s exports which recovered in 2005, the continued strength of agricultural shipments originating from South and Central America and a somewhat stronger increase in Europe’s agricultural products exports.

World trade in all three sectors expanded faster than sectoral output, a typical feature observed over the last two decades. Trade in manufactured goods again grew much faster that manufacturing output although due to the cyclical downswing the margin was sharply reduced from the exceptional level in 2004. While there is a rather close relationship between the annual trade and output growth in the manufacturing sector the link is less strong for the agricultural and the mining sector. A marked rise in the agricultural output of net-importers can reduce its import requirements and contribute to a slowdown in global trade growth. The reverse situation of a strong import demand in the food importing countries coupled with limited domestic agricultural output growth (like many oil exporting countries ) can stimulate world trade growth with only a limited impact on global output. Sluggish agricultural production in a given year tends to lower exports of more than one period, with the reduction in exports likely to be even larger in the calendar year following a year with a poor harvest. At the regional level the available information for 2005 points to a small decrease of agricultural output in both North America and Europe but an increase in their agricultural exports2.

2 A major difficulty in comparing trade and output in the agricultural sector is due to the importance of processed food in agricultural trade while these products are only partly included in agricultural output.

6exports in fuels amounted to $1.4 trillion and its share in world merchandise exports reached 13.8 per cent, its highest level in almost two decades.

Prices of metals continued to rise sharply in 2005 with large increases for iron ore (71 per cent), uranium (55 per cent), zinc (31 per cent) and copper (28 per cent) (Table A 26). These price changes were the principal reasons for the sharp increase in the trade value of ores and minerals and non-ferrous metals and contributed largely to the marked expansion of world exports of iron and steel products.

In contrast to longer term developments, but continuing with developments over the last two years, world trade in manufactured products lagged behind the growth in total merchandise trade in 2005. Among the manufactured goods, iron and steel products were the only product group which experienced a double digit price increase, which implies that most of the increase in trade value of nearly 18 per cent in 2005 can be attributed to price changes. Large regional differences in the expansion of trade in this product group could be observed in 2005: intra European trade rose by about 10 per cent, less than half of the expansion rate observed for intra-Asian or intra-North American trade (Table IV.30).

Pharmaceutical products had the strongest export growth of all manufactured products between 2000 and 2005 but their annual growth in 2005 remained below that of other chemicals, which include petrochemicals. Exports of office and telecom equipment rose by 11 per cent in 2005. For the first time since the burst of the internet/communication boom in 2001, trade in this sector outstripped the growth in manufactured goods. Throughout the 1990s, trade in office and telecom products had expanded about two times faster than trade in other manufactured goods. The renewed strength in office and telecom equipment is entirely due to telecommunications equipment and differs thereby from the developments in the 1990s. Trade in this sub-group surged by 19 per cent to $ 465 billion while shipments of electronic data processing and office equipment and integrated circuits and electronic components increased by 8 per cent and 5 per cent respectively. In the 1990s, exports of computers and semi-conductors had been more dynamic than telecom equipment. The current strength of trade in telecom equipment is due to vigorous demand growth for mobile phones, wireless telecom equipment and flat panel display colour televisions.

3. Merchandise and commercial services trade in value terms

World merchandise exports rose by 13 per cent to $10.2 trillion in 2005. Commercial services exports expanded by 10 per cent and amounted to $2.4 trillion in 2005. For the third year in a row, the growth in commercial services exports lagged behind that of merchandise exports (Table 1).

Highly divergent price developments among sectors resulted in large differences in the dollar value growth of the three major merchandise product categories in 2005. Prices for most agricultural and manufactured products increased only moderately in 2005 and less rapidly than in the preceding year. In contrast, prices for fuels and mining products surged by 33 per cent in 2005 (Chart 1 and Table A 26).

Chart 4 reports world merchandise exports by 14 product groups ranked by their annual dollar value growth in 2005. The strongest annual increase, slightly more than 40 per cent, is reported for fuels. Almost all of this increase can be attributed to the higher prices for crude oil and natural gas. World

6 can be attributed to weak European demand and a substitution process, in which imports of developed markets from China and India, which had high domestic content, replaced supplies with a high import or foreign trade content such as EU imports from North Africa or US imports from Central America and the Caribbean and Sub-Saharan Africa.

Intra-EU trade in textiles decreased by 7 per cent and EU(25) textiles exports for processing to the three Mediterranean countries (i.e. Morocco, Tunisia and Turkey) and the Balkan countries (i.e. Bulgaria and Romania) decreased by 9 per cent and 4 per cent respectively (see Table IV81). As United States’ imports of clothing from South and Central America decreased by 7 per cent, US shipments of textiles and clothing (mainly for processing) decreased also by 7 per cent.

Among the main features of international trade in textiles and clothing, one can point to the enhanced role of China, India and Pakistan. These countries increased their exports of textiles and clothing between 16 and 26 per cent in 2005. A double-digit increase was also reported for Turkish textiles and Bangladesh’s clothing exports in 2005. A decline in textiles exports can be observed for the EU(25), Hong Kong, China, the Republic of Korea, Chinese Taipei and Japan. The regions with a relative small share in world clothing exports such as North America, the CIS, Africa and South and Central America experienced a decline of the dollar value of their shipments in 2005.

China’s rise in world clothing exports was, until recently, combined with a sharp rise in its cotton and textiles imports. In 2005, however, China’s textiles imports stagnated while textiles and clothing exports rose by about 20 per cent, increasing the county’s trade surplus in textiles and clothing sector by $20 billion to $100 billion.

World exports of agricultural products rose by 8 per cent to $852 billion. The trade expansion at the global level was very similar for the three major groups: fish, other food products and agricultural raw materials. More variation could be observed in the performance of major traders. Exports of the United States, Canada, Thailand and Malaysia increased between 2 per cent and 4 per cent and those of Australia declined after the sharp rise in the preceding year. Brazil, Argentina and Indonesia, however, recorded a double-digit increase in their agricultural exports in 2005 (Table IV8).

Other major developments in agricultural trade in 2005 comprise the near stagnation of Japan’s imports and a strong rise in shipments to the Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. EU(25) imports from third countries rose 5 per cent, less than the expansion in EU(25) extra-exports (7 per cent). However, the former continued to exceed the latter by a large margin.

International receipts from transportation services rose by 12 per cent in 2005, again faster than those from other commercial services and travel services which are estimated to have grown in dollar terms by 11 per cent and 8 per cent respectively (see Table 1). The relative strength of transportation services in a year with less dynamic merchandise trade growth points to the importance of stronger price increases in the transportation sector.

World exports of automotive products rose by 6 per cent in 2005, markedly less than in the proceeding year and less than in the period 2000-05. World automobile production slowed down, advancing by 2 per cent if measured crudely in unit terms. Divergent trends in regional demand growth and shifts in the location of automobile production continued to shape trade flows in 2005. High import demand in the oil exporting regions and in developing Asia contrasted with sluggish demand in many European countries. Intra-European trade, which amounts for 40 per cent of world trade in automotive products, stagnated in dollar terms in 2005 following a rise of 20 per cent in the preceding year. The growth in intra-North American trade in automotive products slowed down to match the pace of overall world trade expansion in 2005. Intra-Asian trade rose 12 per cent, nearly two times faster than world trade (Table IV.62).

Japan, the largest exporter of automotive products, recorded an increase of 6 per cent in its exports, matching the overall trade expansion. Rather large variations could be observed in Japan’s exports by destination, reflecting differences in regional demand developments. Shipments to the EU(25) decreased by 5 per cent while exports to South and Central America, the CIS, Africa and the Middle East increased at double-digit rates. Shipments to China recorded a decrease although the domestic market continued to expand strongly. One prominent feature of automotive trade in 2005 is the dynamic growth in shipments by a large number of smaller exporters, in particular Brazil, China and Thailand which increased their automotive product exports between 38 and 58 per cent. The Republic of Korea, already the world’s fifth largest exporter, also saw double-digit export growth in 2005 (Table IV 66).

The phasing out of the quotas of the Agreement on Textiles and Clothing (ATC) in early 2005 did not result in an increase in global textiles and clothing trade but in major shifts among exporters3. The rather moderate expansion of global textiles and clothing exports of nearly 4 per cent and 6 per cent respectively

3 In the second half of 2005 both the EU and the United States asked and obtained a temporary self-restriction on textiles and clothing exports from China.

4. Regional trade flows

Overview

In 2005, world merchandise exports by region were again shaped by relative price developments and the product structure of regional exports. As in 2004, the strongest value increase in merchandise exports was reported by the Middle East, followed by Africa, the CIS and South America. These four regions’ merchandise exports contain a high share of mining products (ranging from 70 per cent for the Middle East to 40 per cent for South and Central America). Their exports also grew much faster than imports. The inverse picture can be observed for Europe, North America and Asia for which imports continued to expand faster than exports, the later consisting primarily of manufactures4 (Chart 5).

Europe, the largest merchandise trader among all regions, had the smallest increase in exports. North America’s merchandise exports again rose less than the world average while Asia’s exports and imports rose slightly faster than global merchandise trade.

The commercial services trade expansion was markedly different across regions in 2005. Europe, the largest services trader, had the lowest export growth (about 8 per cent) while South and Central America together with the CIS recorded export and import growth which was twice that of the global average of 10 per cent. North America’s exports and imports reported growth rates roughly the same as the world average.

Taking a medium term perspective, one observes that the leading position of Europe in world commercial services has been maintained despite the developments in 2005. Over the last five years, Europe’s share in world commercial services exports and imports fluctuated around one-half. Its share in 2005 was somewhat higher than in 2000. The shares of North America and South and Central America in world commercial services

exports and imports decreased between the years 2000 and 2005. North America was a net-exporter and South and Central America a net-importer of commercial services throughout that period.

The Asian region gained market share in world exports of commercial services and its commercial services receipts exceed those of North America since 2002. Asia’s commercial services imports are estimated to have expanded less rapidly than world trade but continue to exceed its exports. The reduced share of Asia in world commercial services imports is largely due to the lower share of Japan, the region’s largest importer.

Africa, the Middle East and the CIS all recorded higher shares in world commercial services exports and imports in 2005 than in 2000. The three regions continue to be net-importers of commercial services and their combined imports accounted for 9.3 per cent of world commercial services imports in 2005.

North America

North America’s economic growth slowed to 3.2 per cent in 2005, a rate of growth still well above that of the longer term average of the last fifteen years. Weaker economic activity could be observed in each of the three economies forming the region. Higher energy and metal prices on world markets benefited the exports of Canada and Mexico and contributed to an appreciation of their currencies vis-à-vis the US dollar. The already large United States’ merchandise trade deficit, however, widened further under the impact of higher fuel prices. The severe damage caused by the exceptionally devastating hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico had only a limited effect on United States’ merchandise trade but it increased, temporarily, the prevailing shortages in fuel supplies and sustained the rise in fuel prices.

United States’ imports, which had been a major driving force in the global trade expansion in 2003 and 2004, rose 6 per cent in volume terms in 2005, far less than in the preceding year. Although United States’ merchandise export growth weakened, it exceeded for the first time since 1996 its own import growth and the global trade expansion for the first time since 1999. Canada’s imports continued to expand strongly while its exports weakened considerably when adjusted for price changes. North America’s exports and imports rose by 6 per cent, the same rate as the world average (Table 2).

Measured in current dollar value terms, North America’s merchandise imports continued (for the fourth consecutive year) to increase faster than its exports. The share of intra-trade in North America’s imports continued to shrink and amounted to less than 40 per cent in 2005. On the exports side, however, the share of intra-trade remained at nearly 56 per cent in 2005, almost at the same level over the last five years. Developments over the last five years contrasted markedly with those of the 1990s, when the weight of intra-trade increased sharply boosted by the creation of NAFTA (Table III.17). Intra-trade is of paramount importance to both Canada and Mexico which export more than 8 out of 10 dollars to the United States. In contrast, only 4 out of 10 dollars of US export earnings are obtained from shipments to Canada or Mexico.

North America’s exports to South and Central America, the Middle East and Africa rose sharply but these shipments combined, account for less than 10 per cent of North America’s exports, just one percentage point more than in 2000. Exports to Asia recorded the smallest gains of all destinations as the strength in shipments to China (21 per cent) was balanced by a certain sluggishness of those destined to Japan and other Asian developing economies. North America’s exports to Europe,

its third largest export market, expanded less rapidly than on average (Chart 6).

North America’s exports of both manufactured goods and fuels and mining products rose by 10 per cent and 34 per cent respectively in 2005, very similar to the world average. North America’s exports of agricultural products, however, continued to lag – as in the preceding years – well behind the growth of world agricultural trade.

Among the manufactured goods, high growth rates were reported for exports of aircraft, telecom equipment and iron and steel while stagnation or declines in values could be observed for electronic data equipment, integrated circuits and clothing.

Commercial services exports of North America rose by 10 per cent to $422 billion. For the first time since 2001, export growth exceeded import growth (9 per cent) and matched the expansion of world commercial services exports. Although import growth weakened in all three commercial services categories, the deceleration was particularly pronounced in the travel services category. Following a strong recovery in 2004, travel expenditures by United States’ tourists abroad slowed considerably in 2005.

South and Central America (including the Caribbean)

Economic growth in South and Central America remained strong overall in 2005 despite the markedly weaker economic activity in Brazil, the region’s largest economy. More than 15 countries in the region recorded GDP growth of at least 5 per cent and three of them (Argentina, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela) reported exceptionally strong economic growth in excess of 9 per cent. The renewed economic strength of the region is very much linked to the global commodity boom which increased not only investors’ confidence in the region but contributed to a marked real effective appreciation of the currencies of some countries, in particular those of Brazil and Chile (Table 3).

Favourable price developments and strong domestic demand boosted the volume of merchandise imports by 14 per cent, exceeding by far the regional export growth (8.5 per cent). The average regional import growth conceals contrasting developments between Brazil and the other economies in the region. The latter recorded import growth of 17 per cent in volume terms while Brazil’s merchandise imports expanded by only 5 per cent in 2005 (Table 3).

The dollar value of the region’s merchandise exports increased by 25 per cent to $355 billion. Intra-regional trade expanded by 27 per cent and accounted for nearly one-quarter of the region’s total exports. Although the share of intra-regional trade recovered from the low levels in 2002, it still remained

below that attained in 2000. Exports to North America, Asia and the Middle East increased by about one-quarter in 2005. Merchandise exports to Europe showed an increase of 15 per cent, the weakest expansion of all destinations of South and Central America’s shipments (Chart 7).

North America remained the most important destination for South and Central America’s exports (33 per cent) although its share has decreased markedly since 2000 when it accounted for nearly 39 per cent. Most of these gains were due to the outstanding growth of shipments to China whose average annual growth rate was 37 per cent over the 2000-05 period.

South and Central America’s exports of fuels and mining products rose by 37 per cent to $132 billion, exceeding for the first time, the region’s exports of manufactures ($121 billion), although the rise of the latter group was twice that of world trade in manufactures. Agricultural exports increased by

16 per cent in 2005, also double the increase recorded at the global level.

Chemicals, automotive products and iron and steel were the major product groups which showed export growth rates in excess of 25 per cent in 2005. Office and telecom equipment, which still account for less than 2 per cent of South and Central America’s exports, surged by 70 per cent to $6.5 billion. In contrast to the dynamic overall trade expansion, clothing exports decreased by 1 per cent to $13 billion while shipments of textiles rose by 13 per cent to $2.8 billion, favoured by a strong rebound in intra-regional trade. The decline in clothing exports can be attributed largely to shipments to the Unites States which decreased by 2 per cent to $12 billion in 2005. Clothing exports within the region recovered further to $0.7 billion in 2005 exceeding the previous peak level in 2001.

Commercial services exports and imports of South and Central America rose by about 20 per cent or two times faster than global services trade. Brazil reported an outstandingly strong expansion of its services trade. Imports surged by 38 per cent to $22.3 billion. The annual average appreciation of the Brazilian currency by 17 per cent has most likely played an important part in the 64 per cent rise of travel expenditure in 2005. But this surge in travel expenditure to $4.7 billion in 2005 turns out to be less impressive since it still remained below the level attained eight years earlier (Table 3).

Europe

Among the major regions, Europe had the weakest economic growth in 2005. Even taking into account the near stagnation of its population size, per capita income growth was also the lowest in the world. The sluggishness in Europe was concentrated in the euro-area and the United Kingdom while the ten new EU members and the Balkan countries recorded much faster growth. Turkey, the largest European economy outside the EU, grew by more than 7 per cent in 2005. As almost three-quarters of Europe’s merchandise exports are destined to other European countries, the sluggish economy resulted in poor overall trade growth.

Table 4 summarizes Europe’s trade performance in recent years. Merchandise exports (and imports) rose by 3.5 per cent in volume terms, markedly less than in 2004 but still exceeding the region’s GDP growth. Intra-EU trade grew 2 per cent, much weaker than extra-EU exports which rose by 6.5 per cent and extra-EU imports which increased by 5 per cent in 2005.

Although the European currencies depreciated significantly in the course of 2005, the annual average of the trade-weighted basket of European currencies remained nearly unchanged if compared with the 2004 average (Chart2). Consequently, for the first time since 2001, the annual variation of trade values changes are the same in dollar and euro terms.

Intra-European trade, which accounted for three quarters of Europe’s exports and one-third of world merchandise exports in 2004, rose by 7 per cent in 2005, one of the smallest increase of all major trade flows. Europe’s exports to North America and Asia expanded close to the average increase of 8 per cent. The United States continues to be a somewhat larger market for European exporters than the entire Asian region (Chart 8). Among shipments to Asia, those destined for Japan and Australia/New Zealand had been particularly sluggish (2 per cent and 4.5 per cent respectively). European shipments to regions exporting primarily fuels and other mining products had been more dynamic but they still lagged behind each region’s total imports.

Europe’s merchandise exports of agricultural products and manufactured goods increased by 6.5 per cent. Exports of fuels and other mining products rose by nearly 30 per cent to $405 billion, exceeding in value terms exports of agricultural products for the first time. Among the manufactured goods the more dynamic categories (with trade growth of at least 10 per cent) included iron and steel, chemicals and office and telecom equipment. Sluggish export growth was observed for automotive products (3 per cent), which accounted for 12 per cent of Europe’s total merchandise exports. Decreases of

4 and 2 per cent were reported for export shipments of textiles and integrated circuits respectively (Table III.32).

Europe’s commercial services exports and imports, which account for more than half of world services trade, increased by 8 per cent, slightly less than the global average. The United Kingdom, the region’s largest services exporter, reported only modest increases in its exports while Germany and Italy recorded export increases of 10 per cent and 13 per cent respectively. Among the three services categories, transportation services (exports and imports) showed the strongest growth with travel services the weakest growth in 2005. Europe’s commercial services exports continued to exceed commercial services imports in all three services categories.

Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS)

Economic growth in the CIS continued to be very strong in 2005, even if the pace of economic expansion decelerated somewhat compared with the preceding year. GDP growth of the Russian Federation reached 6.4 per cent, somewhat less vigorous than the growth in the other CIS member states. The GDP growth rates of these economies showed much greater variance in 2005 than in the preceding years. Azerbaijan and Armenia achieved double digit GDP growth (24 and 14 per cent respectively) whereas economic activity stagnated in the Kyrgyz Republic. The Ukraine, the second largest economy in the CIS, experienced a sharp deceleration of its GDP growth from 12 per cent in 2004 to only 2.5 per cent in 2005.

The substantial increase in foreign exchange earnings of the region are linked to the high level of fuels and metal prices in recent years which sustained economic growth and contributed to a surge in the volume of merchandise imports. In 2005, the volume of merchandise imports is estimated to have increased by 18 per cent, a little faster than in 2004 and far stronger than the rise of the region’s export volume (4.5 per cent) (Table 5).

As prices of merchandise exports increased much faster than import prices, the rise in the dollar value of CIS merchandise exports continued to expand faster than imports and led to a larger merchandise trade surplus in 2005. Over the last three years, both exports and imports surged by more than 100 per cent, lifting the region’s share in world merchandise

exports to a peak level of 3.3 per cent, more than twice the level recorded in the early 1990s.

CIS’ merchandise exports to Europe, which account for more than one half of its exports, increased by 30 per cent to $178 billion. Intra-regional trade grew by 12 per cent, the lowest rate of increase of all destinations in 2005. This relatively small increase can be attributed largely to two factors: first, the markedly lower share of fuels in intra-trade than in extra-regional trade and the more moderate rise of intra-fuels trade in 2005, which is partly due to smaller price hikes. Although CIS exports to China rose by 28 per cent, shipments to the entire Asian region increased by only 13.5 per cent. Exports to Africa and South and Central America increased by more than one third but the shares of these two regions did not exceed 2 per cent of the region’s merchandise exports (Chart 9).

Exports by product group evolved in 2005 at highly divergent rates which can only partly be explained by price developments. Oil and gas shipments increased in dollar terms by 45 per cent and this group alone accounted for more than one-half of CIS merchandise exports. Exports of iron and steel ($36 billion), agricultural products ($26 billion) and chemicals ($20 billion) expanded by about 20 per cent in 2005. Machinery and transport equipment ($20 billion) exports increased by less than 3 per cent and textiles and clothing exports even declined by 7 per cent and 14 per cent respectively.

Commercial services exports and imports of the CIS region expanded by one-fifth, or about twice the rate of global expansion in 2005. The region’s commercial services imports amounted to $62 billion and exceeded its exports by $20 billion. A noteworthy feature of CIS commercial services trade is that the region enjoyed a surplus of nearly $7 billion in transportation services but recorded a deficit in travel and other commercial services of $12.7 billion and 14.4 billion respectively.

Africa

A favourable global environment for Africa’s principal exports, a reduction in the outstanding external public debt through the Debt Initiative for Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) and an increase in FDI inflows were factors which led to the highest economic growth in the region in more than five years. Economic growth was spread broadly in the region as 26 economies recorded a GDP growth of at least 5 per cent in 2005 according to recent IMF estimates. Among these fast growing African economies are those with the largest population: Nigeria, Ethiopia and the Republic of Congo. Angola and Chad recorded even double digit GDP growth by expanding strongly their crude oil production. South Africa, the region’s largest economy, also reported its most vigorous GDP growth in five years (Table 6). However, sluggish economic growth was reported in Morocco, Côte d’Ivoire and Togo, while Zimbabwe saw its economy shrink for the seventh year in a row.

The expansion of the value of Africa’s merchandise exports by 29 per cent in 2005 was largely driven by price changes. Adjusted for price changes, it is estimated that Africa’s

merchandise exports expanded somewhat less rapidly than the world average rate of 6 per cent. Imports in volume terms (i.e. adjusted for price changes) increased much faster than exports although in dollar terms the opposite development is observed as import prices increased on average far less than export prices.

Africa’s merchandise exports are largely destined to Europe but Europe’s share has decreased markedly in recent years from more than one-half in 2001 to about 43 per cent in 2005 (Chart 10). The corresponding gains occurred largely for shipments destined to North America which accounted for one-fifth of Africa’s merchandise exports and recorded the strongest increase (41 per cent) of all destinations in 2005. Africa’s exports to Asia are estimated to have increased by 20 per cent with shipments to China rising by more than one-third. There is some uncertainty in the estimates of African exports to Asia, as some major exporters in Africa and some major importers in Asia do not provide a full breakdown of their trade by partner. These types of statistical difficulties also affect the accuracy of estimates on intra-African trade. Available data at the time of writing point to an increase in intra-African trade of less than 20 per cent in 2005. This implies a decrease on the part of intra-regional trade, which account for nearly 10 per cent of Africa’s merchandise exports.

The intensification of economic relations and the sharp rise in trade flows between Africa and China has attracted much attention recently. China’s trade statistics provide detailed and up-to-date information on these trade flows which allows us to review these developments. According to Chinese customs statistics, imports from Africa increased fourfold between 2002 and 2005 while Chinese exports to Africa tripled to $18.6 billion.5 Chinese imports (valued c.i.f.) exceeded Chinese shipments to Africa in 2005. The trade between China and Africa is complementary, as more than 90 per cent of Chinese exports are manufactured goods while more than 90 per cent of its imports from Africa consist of primary products.

Prominent categories in China’s exports to Africa are machinery and equipment, textiles and clothing while on the import side, fuels, other mining products and agricultural

5 The sharp rise in bilateral trade flows continued unabated in the first half of 2006. China's exports to Africa increased by 30 per cent and imports from Africa by one half in the first six months of 2006.

raw materials are the principal product groups (Chart 11 and Appendix Table A19).

The product structure of Africa’s merchandise exports has always been strongly affected by price developments. Due to the sharp rise of fuel prices and an increase in oil production, the share of fuels reached 59 per cent in Africa’s merchandise exports, a peak level for the 1990-2005 period. Exports of fuels increased by more than 40 per cent in 2005 while shipments of agricultural products and manufactured goods increased by 8 per cent and 12 per cent respectively. African exports of chemical products expanded faster than other manufactures while clothing exports are estimated to have declined.

In 2005, Africa’s commercial services exports and imports continued to expand faster than the world average for the third consecutive year. Commercial services imports increased by 20 per cent to $69 billion and exceeded the region’s exports by about $12 billion. Travel receipts are of paramount importance to Africa’s commercial services exports. It is estimated that more than one-half of its commercial services exports consist of travel

services and in contrast to the other two services categories, Africa’s travel receipts exceed travel expenditures.

The Middle East

The Middle East had strong overall economic growth in 2005, despite a lack of political stability in parts of the region. The three large oil exporters, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Iran grew between 8 per cent and 5.5 per cent according to IMF estimates. Economic activity increased well below the regional average in Lebanon, the Syrian Arab Republic and Yemen. Jordan, a net-importer of oil, grew by 7 per cent, one of the fastest rate growth rates in the region (Table 7).

Merchandise exports of the region rose by 35 per cent to $538 billion in 2005, more than twice the level recorded only three years earlier. Import growth lagged well behind that of exports, resulting in a large increase in the region’s merchandise

trade surplus. Middle East’s merchandise exports to Asia surged by more than 40 per cent and accounted for more than one-half of the region’s total exports in 2005. More than 70 per cent of exports to Asia go to developing countries, in large parts to the Republic of Korea, China, India and Singapore. Exports to Europe, the second largest export market of the region, increased by one-third keeping the share unchanged at 16 per cent. Since 2003, the share of North America and that of intra-regional trade is estimated to have decreased somewhat to 12 per cent and 10 per cent respectively in 2005 (Chart 12).

As the Middle East’s merchandise exports consist largely of fuels (69 per cent in 2005), it is not always realized that the region’s exports of manufactured goods are also growing rapidly.

6 The United Arab Emirates has become a large trading hub and its exports (including re-exports) exceeded with $48 billion those of Israel ($40 billion).6 Saudi Arabia and Jordan more than tripled their exports of manufactures over the last five years, the first mainly due to its chemical and the latter due to its clothing exports.

Commercial services imports of the Middle East expanded by 18 per cent to $85 billion in 2005. The region’s imports exceeded exports by about $30 billion. In each of the three services categories, imports exceeded exports. A particular feature of the Middle East’s commercial services imports is that transportation services are the most important of all three services categories.

Asia (including Oceania)

Economic growth in Asia remained very strong overall in 2005 but varied significantly between developed and developing countries. The three developed Asian countries Japan, Australia and New Zealand recorded only moderate economic growth of between 2 per cent and 3 per cent, even though Japan’s economy reported its best performance since 2000. The more advanced developing economies such as the Republic of Korea, Chinese Taipei, Hong Kong, China and Singapore recorded weaker activity than in 2004 and average GDP growth below

that of the middle and low income countries in Asia. China and India, the developing Asian economies with the largest population, as well as Pakistan and Vietnam, reported a vigorous GDP growth of between 8 and 10 per cent in 2005.

Variations in overall economic growth are mirrored in the trade performance with real trade growth differing largely between Japan and the developing Asian economies. While Japan’s trade slowed sharply in 2005, advancing far less than the global average, the volume of developing Asia’s trade continued to expand faster than world trade. China’s merchandise exports were apparently not affected by the global trade slowdown nor by the moderate appreciation of its currency vis-à-vis the US dollar, as they expanded by one-quarter, about the same rate as in 2004. Chinese merchandise imports, however, decelerated sharply and their growth rate of 12 per cent was only half that of its exports (Table 8).

Measured in US dollars, the value of Asia’s merchandise imports and exports rose by 16 per cent in 2005, lifting the region’s merchandise trade surplus to a record level.

Intra-Asian trade, which accounts for slightly more than one-half of Asia’s merchandise exports, increased marginally less rapidly than total exports. Japan’s exports to the region expanded by 5 per cent, far less than those of Australia/New Zealand. North America and Western Europe combined account for about 40 per cent of Asia’s merchandise exports and exports to these destinations grew somewhat less strong than intra-trade. Asia’s exports to South and Central America and the CIS were particularly buoyant and those to the Middle East and Africa also grew above the average rate (Chart 13 and Table III.68).

6Asia’s exports of manufactures rose 14 per cent in 2005, markedly less than in the preceding year, but still faster than the global average. Shipments of iron and steel, and chemicals rose by about 20 per cent while those of office and telecom equipment, textiles and clothing increased by somewhat more than 10 per cent. The moderate expansion in textiles and clothing trade was partly due to sluggish intra-regional trade. Intra-regional textiles trade is estimated to have expanded by five per cent and that of clothing even contracted by 5 per cent. The region’s exports of automotive products rose by 12 per cent in 2005. Moderate growth of Japan’s exports (5 per cent) contrasted with the robust growth of Korean shipments and a surge in exports from China, Thailand and India (see Table IV.67).

Commercial services exports of Asia increased by 14 per cent to $525 billion in 2005. Imports continued to expand somewhat less than exports but they still exceeded exports by 9 per cent. In 2000, the excess of services imports over the region’s exports stood at 19 per cent.

A review of Asia’s commercial services by category shows that the region imported more transportation and travel services than it exported but recorded a surplus for other commercial services. The latter category is not only the largest in value terms but also the category with the strongest growth over the last fifteen years. In 2005, Asia’s exports of other commercial services which include, inter-alia, software exports, construction services, financial services and royalties and license fees, expanded by 19 per cent to $244 billion. Asia’s exports of transportation and travel services increased by 13 per cent and 9 per cent respectively, exceeding thereby somewhat the global average.

It should be noted that the World and Asia totals contain a significant element of double counting due to the use of the general system of recording merchandise trade statistics which includes re-exports.

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

a Includes significant re-exports.

b Prior to 2004, European Union (25) individual country data do not add up to the reported aggregate due to Eurostat's use of different methodologies for Cyprus, Estonia and Lithuania.

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

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.

c Beginning with 1998, imports are valued f.o.b.

d Beginning with 1998, figures refer to South Africa only and no longer to the South 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.

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.

Note: The figures are affected by the "INTRASTAT" system of recording trade between EU member States. 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 2005 data. See the Technical Notes.

WTO members are frequently referred to as “country”, although some members are not countries in the usual sense of the word but are officially “customs territories”. The definition 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 on the rights and obligations of any WTO Member in respect of WTO Agreements. The colours, boundaries, denominations, and classifications 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 South and Central America; the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, the Republic of Korea and the Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu are referenced as Bolivarian Rep. of Venezuela, Korea, Republic of and Taipei, Chinese respectively.

II. Definitions and methods

II.1 Merchandise trade

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 figures are larger than the corresponding special trade figures because the latter exclude certain trade flows, such as goods shipped through bonded warehouses.

To the extent possible, total merchandise trade is defined in this report according to the general trade definition. 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 reduce 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 Definitions, 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 (f.o.b. valuation). Imports are valued at transaction value plus the cost of transportation and insurance to the frontier of the importing country or territory (c.i.f. valuation).

2. Products All product groups are defined according to Revision 3 of the

Standard International Trade Classification (SITC). The following groupings are used in this report:

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 figures 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 figures 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 “unspecified destinations” (a category not shown separately).

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

(iii) Exports of non-monetary gold, where known, are included. When they cannot be broken down by destination, they are allocated to “unspecified destinations”.

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

4. Merchandise trade of selected major traders by product, region and major trading partner (Appendix tables A11 to A25)

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 specified by product.

The following adjustment has been made to the figures: 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 “unspecified 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 2005 (member States of the EU (25) are counted as one trading partner).

5. Merchandise trade in balance of payments statistics Merchandise trade statistics together with other basic

statistical systems (such as industrial and transport statistics) provide the foundation for the System of National Accounts (SNA) and the balance of payments (BOP). Merchandise trade statistics are basic to the compilation of the goods account in the balance of payments as structured and defined in the fifth edition of the International Monetary Fund’s Balance of Payments Manual (BPM5).

Goods (merchandise) are defined in the SNA as “physical objects for which a demand exists, over which ownership rights can be established and whose ownership can be transferred from one institutional unit to another by engaging in transactions on markets”. Thus, for the SNA and BOP statistics the recording of transactions should be based on the change of ownership principle.

However, the compilation of international merchandise trade statistics (IMTS) is usually based on customs records which essentially reflect the physical movement of goods across borders, and follow international guidelines on concepts and definitions which do not fully conform to the principles of the SNA and the BPM5.

A number of adjustments has to be made to international merchandise trade statistics before they match the specific requirements of national accounts and balance of payments statistics. For aggregate exports and imports these adjustments are mainly related to coverage, the system of trade, and valuation.

With respect to the coverage of IMTS, transactions in which one or both national boundaries are not crossed (e.g. trade in vessels and aircraft, exports of bunkers, etc.) are not always included in merchandise trade statistics for practical reasons, whereas they should usually be included in BOP statistics.

Also, under BPM5, certain transactions should be excluded from goods and included, at market value, in services; for example, 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.

Concerning the system of trade, the IMTS guidelines outline the measurement of trade flows on the basis of (1) the special trade system and (2) the general trade system. Under the special trade system, the customs frontier is regarded as the statistical boundary whereas, under the general system of trade, the national frontier is regarded as the statistical boundary. The BPM5 stresses that measurement for BOP compilation should be based on change of ownership rather than on the general trade system or the special trade system. The general trade system appears however to be a better approximation for measuring change of ownership because it provides broader coverage and the date of change of ownership may be closer to the date goods cross the national frontier than to the date goods clear through customs.

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 c.i.f. value - or at the f.o.b. value at the exporter’s border. IMTS guidelines recommend the adoption of the c.i.f. valuation for imports whereas 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, as in Table I.8. Strictly speaking, it is not correct to aggregate the figures 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.

II.2 Trade in commercial services

1. Exports and imports Exports (credits) and imports (debits) of commercial services

are derived from statistics on international service transactions included in the balance of payments statistics, to the extent possible in conformity with the concepts, definitions and classification of the fifth (1993) edition of the IMF Balance of Payments Manual.

2. Definition of commercial services In the fifth edition of the Balance of Payments Manual, the

current account is subdivided into goods, services (including

government services, n.i.e.), income (investment income and compensation of employees), and current transfers. The commercial services category in this report is defined as being equal to services minus government services, n.i.e. Commercial services is further sub-divided into transport, travel, and other commercial services.

Transport covers all transportation services (sea, air and other including land, internal waterway, space and pipeline) 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 specific 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 defined in BPM5:

(i) communications services (telecommunications, postal and courier services);

(ii) construction services; (iii) insurance services; (iv) financial services;(v) computer and information services (including news

agency services); (vi) royalties and licence fees, covering payments and

receipts for the use of intangible non-financial 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 including audiovisual services.

3. Coverage and comparability Although in recent years the coverage and comparability of

services trade data have improved, recorded trade figures still lack comparability across countries and are subject to significant 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 financial 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, especially 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, the alternate sources used for countries which are not members of the IMF do not necessarily comply with the IMF concepts and definitions. Fifth, misclassification 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

252

when transactions pertaining to income, transfers or official transactions are registered in the private service categories.

These distortions may be particularly significant at the detailed level, i.e., for a detailed service category, or for trade in services flows by origin and destination.

The implementation of BPM5 has resulted in an improvement of international data comparability over time. However, given that these improvements have been made gradually, they also resulted in a number of breaks in series. The borderline between goods and services, as well as the borderlines between the components of commercial services differ in BPM4 and BPM5. Examples of such differences are:

(i) most processing transactions are included in the goods account on a gross basis in BPM5, while in BPM4 only the value of the fees paid for processing are included in services;

(ii) goods procured in ports, such as fuels and provisions, are included in goods in BPM5, and in services (transport) in BPM4;

(iii) in BPM4, insurance services are normally measured by the net premiums defined as premiums less claims, while in BPM5, insurance services reflects the “normal” service charge, i.e. administrative services and part of the earnings; the rest of the net premiums or the actual risk premiums is recorded under current transfers or in the financial account in case of life insurance; in addition, freight insurance is part of transport in BPM4, and part of insurance services in BPM5; and

(iv) the expenditure of seasonal and border workers is included in labour income in BPM4, and in travel in BPM5.

4. 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 figures have been estimated from statistics included in the New Cronos database, August 2006.

II.3 Other definitions and methods

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. 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 A26).

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 A27 and A28).

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 deflated by the world unit value index. Throughout the aggregation process trade values of the previous year are used as weights.

4. World production Production of agriculture (including hunting, forestry and

fish), mining and manufacturing is defined according to major Categories A, B, C and D of the International Standard Industrial Classification 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.

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 official exchange rates which are not market-based for some major economies, together with the fluctuations of the United States dollar vis-à-vis major currencies can have a significant 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 influence on the global growth estimate. For the 2000-2005 period, global growth estimates based on PPP-weights indicate a significantly 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.

6. Re-exports and reimportsUnder 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 2005 to $ 272 billion), if included in regional or world aggregates, would adversely affect the analytical value of the statistics by introducing a significant 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 figures for world exports and for exports of Asia shown in Appendix tables A2 and A10 are smaller than those in

253

Tech

es

Appendix table A6. Since retained imports cannot be identified from imports directly, an approximation is derived by subtracting the value of re-exports from the value of imports. The resulting figure will, however, under-estimate the value of retained imports by the amount of the re-export margin.

China reports imports from China (reimports), a trade flow which accounted for 8.4 per cent (55.2 billion US dollars) of its total merchandise imports in 2005. 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 office and telecom equipment is the largest category ($28.5 billion) in this particular trade flow. The share of returned goods is particularly large in the imports of telecommunications equipment (35 per cent), electrical machinery (22.1 per cent) and in textiles (17.6 per cent). Further information on these imports is provided in Box 2 of the International Trade Statistics 2005.

III. Specific notes for selected economies

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 definitions adopted by the EU are in line with the United Nations’ International Trade Statistics, Concepts and Definitions, 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 firms 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 figure for EU imports as a whole. This adjustment is also reflected in the volume estimates for the EU as a whole.

2. Major breaks in data continuity of merchandise tradeBetween 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 official estimates of inflows of goods which enter the economy without being registered by the customs authorities. Such adjustments to import data accounted for 21 per cent of the officially reported totals in 2005; and, on the export side, for about 1 per cent of total reported exports.

3. Trade in insurance services of the United States In 2003, the United States has 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 6 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 first 6-year average of “regularly occurring claims” could only be calculated for 1992. As a result, time series on U.S. 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 financial protection to policy holders through the pooling of risk and provide financial 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 financial intermediation.

4. 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. In order to maintain consistent growth rates, data shown in this report for Japanese 1995-2002 travel exports and exports of commercial services include provisional Secretariat estimates referring to the new compilation methodology (i.e. after January 2003) applied by the Japanese authorities and therefore they differ from 1995-2002 figures 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).

5. Trade of other commercial services of IndiaIn 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).

IV. Statistical sources

Most frequently used sources for statistics are:

EUROSTAT, Comext and New Cronos databasesFAO, Production YearbookFAO, FAOSTAT Agriculture databaseIMF, Balance of Payments Statistics IMF, International Financial StatisticsIMF, World Economic Outlook databaseOECD, Main Economic IndicatorsOECD, Monthly Statistics of International TradeOECD, National AccountsOECD/IEA, Energy Prices & TaxesUNECE, Economic Survey of EuropeUNECLAC, Overview of the Economies of Latin America and the Caribbean UNIDO, National Accounts Statistics DatabaseUNSD, Comtrade database (for OECD members, UNSD-OECD Joint Trade Data Collection and Processing System) UNSD, International Trade Statistics YearbookUNSD, Monthly Bulletin of StatisticsWorld Bank, World Development Indicators

These sources are supplemented by national publications 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 (Tables III.6 and III.7) 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.
