How can I access trade data for the Western Hemisphere?
The InterAmerican Development Bank’s DataIntal (http://www.iadb.org/int) has bilateral trade, with a 3-to-4 year lag, (HS-6, SITC-5, and ISIC-4 commodities) for 29 countries, including the U.S. This site also contains macroeconomic data and semi-annual country economic assessments (http://www.iadb.org/regions/re123eng.htm).
