COVID-19

As the physical movement of goods and people is restricted due to COVID-19, digital trade has kept things flowing virtually. From cross-border e-commerce and digital payments, to teleconferencing with business partners around the world, digitally enabled transactions in goods and services are more important than ever.

But as the pandemic continues and national protectionism is on the rise, how is technology affecting an increasingly complex global trading environment?
