Disaggregating value-added data reveals the importance of services as inputs to other export activities, especially exports of agriculture, energy, and manufacturing. Trade in services remains a critical component of countries’ overall trade strategies. As technological advances have facilitated the growth of services tradability, countries like Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, Mauritius, and Senegal have capitalized on these new opportunities. The role of services goes beyond direct exports. Access to low-cost/high-quality services helps countries achieve social development objectives and participate in local, regional, and global value chains. As inputs into downstream activities, services also help increase the competitiveness and performance of other economic sectors, especially in agricultural, food processing, and manufacturing activities, such as textile and apparel exports.
