In over 50 percent of economic activity (up to 70 percent the B2C arena, media and entertainment are now being in developed countries). Some attempt to justify forced to reinvent themselves under the pressure from this discrepancy has been made by reasoning that players with global distribution platforms (Google, the industrial sector alone is able to innovate, create Amazon, Apple, Booking, Expedia). employment and generate wealth. The implication is that services are “sheltered” from global competition To cope with these changes, Western countries possess as a result of their local and fragmented nature as valuable assets, given the expansion of the tertiary sector well as their low capital intensity. Official statistics in their economies (mature domestic markets, centers tend to support these preconceptions, because the of excellence, qualified labor). Service globalization is international flow of services is difficult to track due to thus a unique opportunity for these countries to export their intangible nature1. their know-how, reduce their trade deficits, and shift the global trade balance in their favor. The potential markets Service trade volume could potentially be twice that are immense and the corresponding compensation may indicated by official estimates. In addition, there can be very rewarding. That said, the window of opportunity be no doubt that service globalization is growing fast will be brief – ten years by our estimate – because the (8.7 percent per year from 2011 to 2022), driven by major emerging nations (China, India, South Africa) will three major game-changing shifts: business model soon position themselves on these markets to support digitalization, growth of demand in emerging countries, the growth of their internal consumption. and deregulation of national markets. In this context, a new vision of this service market is required, based on a For executives, service globalization signifies the better understanding of service exportation processes. To lowering of market entry barriers, which will open the develop this understanding, it is important to differentiate way to new growth areas while increasing vulnerability between “global services” and “local services”. The former to competition. There are several steps to prepare for includes media, IT services, and professional services, all this new world.First, secure domestic market share of which can be easily exported since they are delivered and strengthen the major drivers which differentiate remotely. In contrast, “local services,” such as hotels, national players from new foreign entrants, i.e. local maintenance services, and energy distribution, all require customer knowledge and relationships. Second, develop different rationales to go global: franchise networks, a global development strategy founded upon a new global CRM platforms, know-how, brand licensing, etc. vision of the service portfolio. Third, establish a network of global production and distribution platforms to pool Service globalization is a revolution as remarkable as investments and industrialize processes in order to initiate that which struck the industrial sector in 1973, and is a new type of international deployment, based not upon expected to drive an intangible economy structured complex and costly local facilities, but instead intangible around global service networks.

SERVICE GLOBALIZatION Sources: International trade statistics, WTO and Oliver Wyman analysis; CEPII, IS EVERYWHERE… EXCEPT IN CHELEM-balance of payments database THE StatISTICS Upon initial analysis, services would appear to represent This vision does not accurately reflect reality. Just by a low share of global trade, i.e. 20 percent, in contrast observing the influence of US consumption models to 72 percent for industry (Exhibit 1). This situation is in our daily lives (movies and TV series, fast food, generally justified by the “local” nature of services, which internet aggregators), it is easy to realize that service cannot be industrialized due to their low added value. globalization is already everywhere… except in statistics. HOW TO DEFINE SERVICE EXPORTS? The World Trade Organization (WTO) has identified four service exportation models: A parent company A service crosses A consumer crosses creates a subsidiary A company sends a border (e.g. delivery a border to receive in a foreign country expatriates abroad of a technical study, a service (e.g. tourism) to deliver a service to deliver a service purchase of air tickets) (e.g. restaurant) (e.g. consulting) Statistics usually consider only the first two models to be exports, while most service trade is delivered according to the third model.

While the inflow and outflow E-commerce revenues are particularly difficult of goods are recorded by customs, the intangible to track, especially for purchases made through transactions of the service sector are intrinsically harder platforms hosted in tax havens, while others go to track. To build statistical databases, government completely unrecorded. This is true, for example, departments and other regulators essentially use for mobile telecommunication operators revenues declarative documents provided by companies. generated through roaming agreements. Therefore, several sources of error must be integrated: • Industrial services are recorded as products • Intra-company services are largely overlooked Industrial companies export a growing share of The World Trade Organization (WTO) currently services as part of their products (operating services, estimates that 26 percent of services are exchanged maintenance, etc.), in order to expand their value among company subsidiaries, compared to 30 proposition, retain customers and smooth their percent for goods. For services, this is likely an revenues. For example, services represent up to 20 underestimation, since they are hardly impossible to percent of revenues for Alstom and 25 percent for quantify accurately. For example, what is the value of GE Aviation. Services have even become the core documents, studies, ideas and know-how exchanged business for some manufacturers (IBM, Otis, Apple) every day by email or phone among the various whose original market has become commoditized. subsidiaries and divisions of a single company?
