...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...
…which is ever more important
