Footnote:
1. Approximately 130 out of 192 countries in the world require countertrade, one form or another, in their procurements. Many of them did so after having undertaken intensive and serious studies. Many global companies have dedicated in-house specialists dealing specifically with countertrade.
Some 20% to 30% of world trade is countertrade. The annual global market size for countertrade is estimated to be between US$200 to US$500 billion. No one really knows what are the correct percentages are and how large the true market size is.
The potential for its growth is so large that efforts were made by some countries to curb the growth of certain forms of countertrade at the World Trade Organisation (WTO). Yet the majority of these very countries are the biggest perpetrators of its practices, restricting their practices within the exceptions contained in the agreement promulgated at the WTO.
