At this year’s Trade Dialogues, ICC chaired discussions on e-commerce, trade and sustainable development, and investment facilitation. “Digital economy is changing the composition, nature and speed of global trade leading to policy friction — today’s trade rules reflect 20th century patterns of trade. With the size of e-commerce touching $25 trillion, digital infrastructure is a key determinant required by SMEs in developing countries to be a part of the global value chain,” Mittal said.
