国际运输服务（ITS）在影响国际贸易流量方面发挥着重要作用。本文开发了一个分析框架，其中 ITS 成本是内生决定的。它表明，智能交通系统部门自由化促进国际贸易的方式与关税自由化非常相似。从政治经济学的角度来看，该部门的单边自由化在政治上并不总是可行，而多边协议可以帮助支撑对改革的支持。有人进一步认为，放松管制和竞争政策改革如果同时进行的话更有可能可行。
International Transport Services (ITS) play an important role in influencing international trade flows. This paper develops an analytical framework in which ITS costs are endogenously determined. It shows that ITS sector liberalization foster international trade very much the same way tariff liberalization does. From a political economy viewpoint, a unilateral liberalization of the sector may not always be politically feasible, and a multilateral agreement can help prop up support for reform. It is further argued that deregulation and competition policy reform are more likely to be feasible if undertaken jointly.
