The Logistics Performance Index (LPI) 2023

The LPI is out. The latest edition of World Bank’s LPI is available.

Logistics performance is critical for trade and economic integration, a driver for economic growth and poverty reduction.

The LPI is an interactive benchmarking tool created to help countries identify the challenges and opportunities they face in their performance on trade logistics and what they can do to improve their performance.

The LPI 2023 allows for comparisons across 139 countries. The 2023 LPI for the first time measures the speed of trade with indicators derived from big datasets tracking shipments.

I have many former colleagues working at the Bank with this report and it is an important instrument for reform and lämodernization.

As far as methodology is concerned, we support the use of new KPI measuring the actual speed of trade derived from Big Data or AI to complement the survey.
