Built on 5,500 country assessments by more than 800 logistics professionals worldwide:
Assessments from professionals outside the country, trading with it
Assessment of domestic business environment and institutions and time and cost data
Questionnaire designed with input from trade
and logistics professionals

Ease of arranging competitively priced shipments
Logistics competence and quality of logistics services
Tracking and tracing
Domestic logistics costs
Timeliness
DOMESTIC LPI - 100 countries

Key messages Trade logistics performance is only as good as the
weakest link Predictability and reliability are as important as cost and
speed The LPI can assess your country’s bottlenecks and
opportunities for reform – and where, if necessary, to direct “aid for trade”
The LPI can mobilize broad constituencies for reform
Key Policy Implications
POLICY IMPLICATIONS Expand the traditional reform agenda beyond customs
reform and infrastructure development Improve the quality of logistics services and increase
border agency coordination Embark on comprehensive reform—processes,
services, and infrastructure—with broad public and private support
