| 摘要： | International trade is a powerful driver of sustainable growth and prosperity, helping lift more than 1 billion people out of poverty since 1990. From 1990 to 2017, developing countries increased their share of global exports from 16% to 30%. During the same period, the global poverty rate fell from 36% to 9%. And because more than 80% of goods traded globally are shipped by sea, ports are vital hubs of economic activity. Numerous studies have shown that when goods move smoothly and quickly in and out of ports, trade costs fall, volumes rise and jobs are created. At the same time, port management is becoming increasingly complex. Today's ports require massive and efficient information flows to function efficiently. That is where port community systems (PCS) come in. These digital collaborative platforms link ports' many functions - logistics, storage, transportation, insurance, finance and customs - allowing them to coordinate more closely. The benefits include lower costs, reduced delays and bottlenecks, and quicker responsiveness to changes in demand and market conditions. |
