Foreword
This is the seventh Digest of Trade Statistics in Anguilla. It covers the period 1995 - 2004 and
contains information relating to the direction of trade. The figures for imports, domestic
exports and re-exports shown for a given year, represents the total record
on Customs documents brought to account in that period. They do not necessarily represent the
actual amount of goods imported into the country or exported from the
country during that period.
The publication of the Trade Statistics Digest is a further indication of
the importance that the Ministry of Finance, Economic Development,
Investment and Commerce places on the availability of timely and accurate
information concerning the Anguillian economy to meet the needs of policy-makers, as well as the private
sector and regional and international agencies.
This issue of the Digest includes a number of additional
tables not available in previous issues.
These tables allow for easier analysis as the imports are presented
according to the Standard International Trade Classifications (SITC) so
analysts are able to see for the various groups of commodities their growth
or decline in importance.
Any suggestions that may
assist us in improving the quality and content of future publications are
welcome. We wish to express our
gratitude to the Customs Department, for without their assistance it would
not be possible to produce this publication without the information
provided by the ASYCUDA system. The
tables were produced using the EUROTRACE package.
