“…al. 11 have found few differences in the determinants of services exports when they attempt to estimate the effect of currency devaluation on export separately for advanced and developing economies. The results from Eichengreen and Gupta 12,13 confirm the importance of the real exchange rate for output growth.…”

Currency exchange rate is an important aspect in modern economy which indicates the strength of domestic currency with respect to international currency. This study uses 42 years ' (1972 to 2013) time series data for Bangladesh in order to empirically determine whether the real exchange rate has significant impact on output growth for Bangladesh by using error correction model (ECM).The time series econometrics properties of the data series have been thoroughly investigated to apply ECM approach. The empirical evidence suggests mixed results; in the short run low exchange rate has positive significant effect while in the long run output growth is positively affected high exchange rate pass through.

“…As in the case of total modern services, the impacts of regional trade agreements have favourable impact on SC services. In this context, the industry association for India's software services, National Association of Software and Services Companies (NASSCOM), has given Indian IT and ITeS companies a unified voice, and played an instrumental role in the industry's policy-making process (Goswami, Mattoo, & Sáez, 2009). NASSCOM has signed several trade contracts with countries such as Ireland, Israel, Mexico, Morocco and Singapore to diversify Indian software exports beyond Japan, Western Europe and North America.…”

“…For instance, India's exports of software and business process services contributed to about 33% of its total exports. Exports of health services are successfully provided by countries in Asia, such as the Philippines and Thailand while Malaysia is increasing its export of education, Islamic banking and A. G. Goswami & S. S aez telecommunication services (Goswami et al, 2012). Similarly, as noted above, several developing countries are rapidly increasing their exports of other business services.…”

“…Our case countries were selected on the basis of their performance in global trade (especially trade in services), their regional role, the availability of data and because they have consciously pursued policies to promote service exports. They were also chosen due to the availability of additional information on their services trade performance and policies (except for Ukraine and South Africa) in the form of case studies (Goswami et al, 2012).…”

The share of developing countries in exports of world services increased from 15% in 2000 to 21% in 2011. Interestingly, in many of the developing economies, the growth in services exports is derived from not just traditional services, but also from modern, high-value, skill-intensive services. Given the rising importance of services, this paper develops a widely applicable methodology for evaluating the contribution of the service sector and the potential of using the sector for growth, employment and trade diversification objectives. We summarize a few key indicators for assessing the performance of the services sector using the available cross-country and bilateral trade data on the services sector. The indicators proposed in this paper are fairly general and draw on cross-country databases; however, to illustrate the methodology we use examples of the following nine countries: Brazil, Chile, Egypt, Hungary, India, Malaysia, Philippines, South Africa, and Ukraine.
