Conclusion on the LPI surveyConclusion on the LPI survey• A useful indicator on how ”easy” or
”difficult” a country’s Trade Logistics is
• Provides also domestic assessments; no. of respondents in a single economy often low
• Scores = Confident Intervals, not fixed points
• The resolution is rather low, but the LPI correlates very well with other datasets
• Robust & pragmatic data; useful in research, teaching, business and policy-making
