Making Trade E-asier

Chong Kok Keong, CEO of GeTS

Making Trade E-asier

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development or OECD estimates that the hidden costs of businesses to conduct trade anywhere in the world are as much as 15% of the value of the goods traded. That’s a high cost to bear. A platform that can reduce costs and delays and improves trade facilitation will boost global incomes and could increase global GDP by almost $1 trillion dollars. Global eTrade Services or GeTS aims to do exactly that! We speak to Chong Kok Keong, CEO of GeTS to learn more.
