whither market access?

Abstract: This paper studies the government procurement of services from
foreign suppliers by conducting a statistical analysis of data submitted by
Japan and Switzerland to the WTO’s Committee on Government Procurement.
Using several metrics, the paper examines whether the WTO’s Agreement on
Government Procurement (GPA) has led to greater market access for foreign
suppliers in services procurement. Our results indicate that despite the GPA,
the proportions of services contracts awarded to foreigners have declined over

services contracts awarded to foreign firms would have been more than 15 times
higher in the case of Japan and nearly 68 times more in the case of Switzerland.
We also find that for the same services categories, the Japanese government is not
purchasing as much from abroad as its private sector is importing from the rest of
the world, a finding that further points to the home-bias in that government’s
public purchase decisions.

means that the government in its various forms –
