The COVID-19 pandemic increased pressure on senior civil servants to do things differently. Citizen trust in government grew to an all-time high in 2020 in many countries, according to the OECD1 . This trust in public institutions empowered governments across Europe and the Middle East to respond rapidly and plan bold investments for an inclusive recovery centered on innovation, digital and climate transitions, and resilience2 . With bold plans came elevated expectations to procure goods and services more efficiently and effectively, scale investments in digital infrastructure, and deliver seamless services to citizens and businesses, while making sure that costs do not spiral out of control, in the medium-to-long term

The climate crisis poses a serious threat to the United States economy and human welfare, with a narrowing timeframe to invest in opportunities to avoid the most catastrophic impacts. Extreme weather events can be exacerbated by climate change, disrupting supply chains, and flooding made worse by sea level rise can destroy critical infrastructure. As a smaller subset of these impacts, climate change threatens the Nation’s fiscal health.

These are challenging times for the UK, but the economy is recovering well, with record job vacancies and unemployment back at pre-crisis levels.

Trade in “services” refers to a wide and growing range of economic activities. These activities include transport, tourism, financial services, use of intellectual property, telecommunications and information services, government services, maintenance, and other professional services from accounting to legal services. Compared to goods, the types and volume of services that can be traded are limited by factors such as the requirement for direct buyer-provider contact, and other unique characteristics such as the reusability of services (e.g., professional consulting) for which traditional value measures do not account. In addition to services as independent exports, manufactured and agricultural products incorporate and depend on services, such as research and development or shipping of intermediate or final goods. As services account for 71% of U.S. employment, U.S. trade in services, both services as exports and as inputs to other exported products, can have a broad impact across the U.S. economy.

Trade was not such a controversial topic not so long ago. For most of the post-war era trade worked well for the US and for many other countries. A bipartisan consensus supported continuing trade liberalization as long as it was accompanied by full employment. However trade always had winners and losers as economies adjust to different costs of production among trading partners and over the last few decades the number of US workers losing from trade mounted and the losses spread across hard hit communities. For these and other reasons, trade has become so controversial that it is now a key pivot point in politics and elections in the US.
