Description

The Industry Standard

Every business has its own language, lexicon, and lingo, and international trade is no exception. Consider: ad valorem, C-TPAT, most-favored nation, FAST, antidumping, NAFTA, countertrade, FOB, ocean bill of lading, 10+2 Rule, letter of credit, FTZ, IMF, and chaebol. International trade is a business in which “I think I know” isn’t good enough. What you don’t know can really hurt you.

The World Trade Press Dictionary of International Trade is the most respected and largest-selling trade reference in the world. It is used by importers, exporters, bankers, shippers, logistics professionals, attorneys, economists, and government officials in more than 100 countries.
