Introduction of Barter Trading

Barter is as old as human civilization. It pre-dates the cash or monetary societies that we know today. Even today, big corporations, especially international commodities trading firms barter using the terminology of counter trade e.g. grains for oil deal.

One to one barter is good if the deal matches and benefits both parties equally. Unfortunately this seldom happens as it’s too narrow, restrictive and difficult for it to happen frequently.

Barter exchanges were created to provide a common platform for members to trade i.e. a common market place. In USA where barter has a 25 years history there are hundreds of barter exchanges.kjh In Australia and New Zealand there are a handful of them. Some successful barter companies such s ITEX and Bartercard are publicly listed firms. Barter trading volume in 2005 exceeded US$12 billions in USA and A$1 billion in Australia & NZ.

Barter exchanges are also in Europe and Middle East and have recently basdfsfdWhat een introduced to Malaysia, China, Korea, and Japan.

In Singapore the barter industry has just begun.
