Trade Facilitation: What Impact?
• Bank research – Wilson, Mann, Otsuki 2003
• New dataset – 19 APEC members
• Econometric approach – gravity model

Policy Relevance and Next Steps
• Inform capacity building priorities– Collective action and unilateral
• New research – World Bank GEP 2004– Analysis expanded to 75 countries– Revised data input

Terrorism and Trade: Economic Impact?
• Doubling of terrorist incidents 1968-1979 led to a 6% decrease in bilateral trade between targeted economies (Nitsch and Schumacher, 2002).
• Security promotes investment and growth in developing economies Poirson (1998). Private investment rose 0.5 to 1 percent of GDP in countries that adopted security measures in ‘best practice’ regions. Economic growth rose by 0.5 to 1.25 percent per year.
• World welfare declines by $75 billion – 1% increase in trade costs (Walkenhorst and Dihel 2002).

Security Considerations….
• Necessary to ensure that less developed countries are not excluded from benefits of new security programs.
• Potential win-win situation - higher costs can be recovered through greater efficiencies in the supply chain and increased exports.
• Need coordinated multilateral plan.
