International trade, finance and transport

In 2005, the growth of world trade decelerated moderately, with the volume of merchandise exports slowing to 7.1 per cent, from 11 per cent in 2004. The deceleration was particularly evident in the developed economies. By contrast, many developing countries and economies in transition recorded relatively fast growing trade, albeit at a slower pace than in previous years.
