Deepening Trade and Transport Facilitation Policy Analysis of Border Crossing Points: Expanding the CAREC Corridor Performance Measurement and Monitor (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789292773809)

This report expands the CAREC Corridor Performance Measurement and Monitoring (CPMM) framework to assess border efficiency and trade facilitation through a new diagnostic index. It introduces the Cross-Border Trade and Transport Facilitation Index (CBTTFI) as an extension of the CPMM framework to provide more detailed assessments of border performance in selected CAREC countries. Based on survey data, the index identifies key operational, institutional, and regulatory factors affecting trade and transport facilitation. The analysis supports efforts to inform policy dialogue and guide improvements in border management and corridor efficiency in line with the CAREC Integrated Trade Agenda 2030.
