Directions for further
research
•
Further the automatisation of the calculation/compilation process of the indicators
allowing more regular and consistent updates of all indicators. Dynamic links and
automatic update procedures have been tested but need to be integrated in the new
working environment. The ultimate goal would be that indicators are automatically
recalculated and/or updated when basic data changes. This process would,
nevertheless, need a validation routine to avoid accidental release.
•
Development of advanced visualisation options (e.g. dynamic time axis on which
the progress and changing size of country indicators are visualised through time, thus
integrating the temporal dynamics) .
•
Still more Trade in Services data is needed containing cross tabulations by products
and partner countries (enabling more micro trade indicators for services)
•
As TIP has been originally designed as set of indicators including “trade plus”
indicators, it is still envisaged to add more indicators capable to shed light on
globalisation patterns. Aspects such as production, employment, FDI/FATS, intra-firm
trade and the role of multinationals need to be integrated into the TIP. A 2nd
Roundtable Meeting on Trade Indicators in 2007 is proposed to provide steerage for
this process.
•
Linkage exercises of customs sources with enterprise structural statistics, as
discussed at the 1st Steering Group Meeting in Ottawa in more detail, will hopefully
allow building up Trade Indicators on enterprise-characteristics-level. The aim
would be to have an OECD-wide set of indicators, comparable to and consistent with
EU statistics
