| 摘要： | Global trade hit a record $32 trillion for 2022, up from its previous record-high of $28.5 trillion in 2021. According to UNCTAD's latest Global Trade Update, even the war in Ukraine and the lingering impacts of the pandemic couldn't throttle strong growth in the trade of both goods and services last year. Trade in goods grew 10% from 2021 to an estimated $25 trillion for 2022, due in part to higher energy prices, while international trade in services rose 15% to a record $7 trillion. In the meantime, new trade agreements, fewer ocean shipping snarls and a reduction in ocean freight rates may have all helped buoy global trade last year. For example, UNCTAD says the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership and the African Continental Free Trade Area both helped to "improve logistics" in 2022. "Ports and shipping companies have now adjusted to the challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic," UNCTAD adds. "Freight and cargo rates are still higher than the pre-pan-demic averages, but the trend is downward." |
