World Integrated Trade Solutions (WITS)

WITS is a trade software tool giving access to bilateral trade between countries based on various product classifications, product details, years, and trade flows. It has data on tariff and non-tariff measures, as well as simulation tools to calculate effects of single and multi-market tariff reductions. It has modules to calculate trade indicators to analyze trade competitiveness of countries, and perform Global Value Chain (GVC) analysis. Several useful trade visualizations are made available to users. Pre-aggregated trade statistics can be browsed by country and by indicator. In addition, it provides access to several analytical databases created by World Bank Economists, these include Export of Value Added Database (EVAD), Labor Content of Exports (LACEX) and e-Commerce indicators. In 2018, a module on Non-Tariff Measure indicators  was added to obtain indicators like Frequency and Coverage ratio and impact of non-tariff measures on duty free trade, along with visualization of non-tariff measures.
