Abstract

The effects of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) on globalization, innovation, growth and productivity are immense.

Abstract

The classification of services in the digital economy proves critical for doing business, but it appears to be a particularly complex regulatory matter that is based upon a manifold set of issues.

Therefore, policy makers are now struggling with the problem of regulating trade in electronic services and are in search of a future-oriented solution for classifying them in multilateral and preferential trade agreements.
