by Bernard Hoekman; Aaditya Mattoo
International Journal of Services Technology and Management (IJSTM), Vol. 17, No. 2/3/4, 2012

Abstract: The competitiveness of firms in open economies is increasingly determined by access to low-cost and high-quality producer services. This paper discusses channels through which openness to trade in services may increase productivity at the level of the economy as a whole, industries and the firm, what can be done to enhance production and export of services and how to design policy reforms to open services markets to greater foreign participation.
