Manual on Statistics of international trade in services

---

The Manual on Statistics of International Trade in Services is the result of a wide-ranging and transparent process. It has been jointly produced by the organizations that participate in the Interagency Task Force on Statistics of International Trade in Services authorized by the United Nations Statistical Commission. It has benefited from strong cooperation among the six participating agencies, the sound advice of national experts and specialist consultants, and valuable contributions and comments from statistical compilers, trade negotiators, representatives of the business community, policy makers and analysts in all regions of the world and in international agencies.
The Task Force was established by the Statistical Commission in 1994. Its mandate was to strengthen cooperation among international organizations; encourage the development of international concepts, definitions and classifications; and promote the availability, quality and international comparability of international trade-in- services statistics. It was established in response to a growing demand from governments, businesses and analysts for more and better internationally comparable data on services trade, including those data needed in support of international negotiations and agreements. In view of the wide gap between statistical needs and available data, the work of the Task Force was considered a long-term exercise.
