State of Play and the Way Forward for Asia and the Pacific United Nations This book features the results of the 2015 United Nations Regional Commissions (UNRC) Joint Survey on Trade Facilitation and Paperless Trade Implementation for the Asia-Pacific Region. Reducing trade costs is essential for developing economies to participate in international production networks and effectively use trade as an engine of growth and sustainable development. Trade facilitation, including paperless trade, has taken increasing importance as evidenced by the World Trade Organization (WTO) Trade Facilitation Agreement, as well as the growing number of regional and sub-regional initiatives facilitating the electronic exchange of trade information and documents along international supply chains.

Trade and Development Report 2016
Structural Transformation for Inclusive and Sustained Growth United Nations This publication highlights the central role of industrialization, and examines one of the big policy challenges at the centre of the 2030 development agenda: how to establish strong linkages and complementarities across the range of productive sectors needed to establish a virtuous circle of rising and shared prosperity. The Report will address such issues as the “middle income trap�, “premature deindustrialization� and the “natural resource curse� through an examination of trade specialization, investment financing and the effective use of industrial policies.
