According to the Russian "businessperson" reported on February 18, according to the statistics of the United Nations Conference on Trade and development, by the end of 2021, the total volume of Global trade will increase by 25%. The growth trend covers all sectors of the world economy except the aviation industry. At the same time, the rise in market prices led to a year-on-year increase of 97% in energy exports, 41% in metals, 35% in chemicals and 20% in edible agricultural products. However, trade growth will slow this year after slowing global GDP growth and slowing inflation. According to UNCTAD, the total volume of Global trade rose to a record high of US $28.5 trillion last year, up 13% from 2019 before the epidemic and 25% from 2020. Both trade in goods and services showed strong growth, with trade in goods and services growing by 27% and 17% respectively. It is reported that in the fourth quarter of 2021, the commodity exports of most large countries have been significantly higher than those in 2019: Russia's exports increased by 33% (import increased by 23%), Brazil's exports increased by 23% (import increased by 33%), the United States' exports increased by 12% (import increased by 20%), and the EU's exports increased by 10% (import increased by 27%). It is reported that the total exports of developing countries increased by 30% year-on-year and that of developed countries by 15%. Developing countries also had better import growth - 26 per cent versus 19 per cent. Compared with 2019, the total exports of developing countries increased by 35%, developed countries increased by 19%, and imports increased by 28% and 25% respectively. In terms of services, similar comparisons mainly show a double drop in import and export. The main exception is India. It can be predicted that the impact of the epidemic on the export of information technology services is not so obvious. [source: reference information network]
