THE MOVERS

INFRASTRUCTURE MATTERS

Supply chain reliability is a key determinant of logistics

performance. It is more important than the speed of delivery.

Many shippers are willing to pay a premium for a high degree of cer-tainty on when and how deliveries

will take place.

RELIABILITY MATTERS

Around 1,000 logistics professionalsrated infrastructure in each region.

ICT and airports generally rated high. Rail, warehousing and transloading

rated low.

Improving logistics is where developing countries have the

most potential to reduce trade costs

E�cient logistics makes countries more competitive

Strong logistics make supply chains reliable

and predictable

LOGISTICS AND DEVELOPMENT Seamless and sustainable logistics can be an engine of

growth and drive integration with global value chains.
