OECD WTO Balanced Trade in Services (BaTIS) dataset is now available.
This attempts to address lack of emphasis in other trade databases (which focus primarily on merchandise) on bilateral trade in services between nations. It currently contains data for 191 countries for the 11 main service categories in the Extended Balance of Payments Services (EBOPS) 2002 classification for 1995 to 2012.
The data helps compare trade in service with trade in goods. Details on methodology and initial findings are on the OECD website.
