description This study conducts a broad investigation of the behavior and determinants of Philippine trade in services, a trade which is increasing in significance, not only for the country but throughout the world.

After outlining many constraints and limitations, mainly due to deficiencies in the services trade statistics, which prompt a broad rather than deep approach, an appropriately wide conceptual framework is adopted. A preliminary analysis of the Philippine services trade data from 1980 is then undertaken which highlights these data deficiencies, particularly the lack of detailed and useful disaggregation.
