E-commerce Evolution in Asia and the Pacific: Opportunities and Challenges (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789292703929)

This report analyzes e-commerce in Asia and the Pacific, assesses its environmental impact, and explains why providing adequate internet, online payments, and last-mile logistics is key to creating a sustainable and inclusive digital marketplace.

Noting the region makes up the largest share of the world's online retail market, it tracks the impact of the pandemic and emphasizes the need to level the playing field for small businesses. It outlines ways for companies to measure their carbon footprint, highlights the potential risk of anti-competitive behavior, and explains the need to improve digital taxation policies in line with e-commerce's rapid growth.
