Global overview of cross-border e-commerce

As the economic and policy significance of e-commerce has increased, a growing number of countries – including Canada, China, the Russian Federation, the United Kingdom and the United States – have begun to collect data on e-commerce revenues. This process will help refine the currently broad definition of ecommerce and lead to its more universal adoption. In parallel with these government efforts, research has been undertaken by consulting firms and data banks, taking advantage of the growing interest in exploring ecommerce data.
