Modest trade recovery to continue in 2015 and 2016 following three years of weak expansion

Growth in the volume of world merchandise trade will pick up only slightly over the next two years, rising from 2.8% in 2014 to 3.3% in 2015 and eventually to 4.0% in 2016, WTO economists announced today.

Trade expansion will therefore remain well below the annual average of 5.1% posted since 1990.
