There are lot of documents and confidential data involved in international trade. Banks offer financial services and also act as middleman for cross border trades. The verification process plays a vital role and it takes months to years, to complete. The major problem is to maintain integrity and confidentiality of the data shared, and to maintain fair trading process. Blockchain technology is introduced to increase the efficiency and security of the documents shared to the needed parties in the trade. Permissioned blockchain is used wherein the participants of the network are controlled and governed by the blockchain owner. Hyperledger fabric platform is used to implement the trade finance application. The main idea is to automate the verification processes in order to complete the trade financing within minutes to hours and to enhance security of the documents shared using Attribute Based Encryption (ABE) in cross border trades. The smart contracts in blockchain provides functionalities to assure that the information is tamper-free, auditable and verifiable.

Abstract The negotiation of trade in services in the context of a free trade agreement is particularly challenging for developing countries in view of the diverse nature of the services sector, the broad regulation applicable to the supply of services, the different modes of supply and the different approaches available for the adoption of the rules governing bilateral trade in services. Two main approaches are available for these negotiations, the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) model or positive list approach, and the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) model or negative list approach. Even though these two models are similar with respect to the substantive obligations covering the conditions for supplying services, they differ significantly with respect to the manner and the structure of commitments. Chile faced significant challenges in concluding a free trade agreement with the United States. The importance of the trading partner and its market for Chilean exports meant that Chile had to adopt a number of unfamiliar features, particularly in relation to financial services and e-commerce, in order to facilitate and consolidate the process of opening its market. This article focuses on the chapters of the United States-Chile Free Trade Agreement addressing trade in services, i.e. cross-border trade in services, financial services, telecommunications, temporary entry of business persons and some provisions on e-commerce. Some investment issues will also be address, particularly those interacting with cross-border trade in services. Finally, the article explains the relevance of this approach as a model or basis for bilateral and plurilateral negotiations on trade in services for the Pacific Rim countries and as the preferred model for services trade liberalization for the Latin American countries.

Cross-border trade is also changing and innovating. Electronic payment has become the core application of modern cross-border e-commerce. However, although electronic payment has brought convenience and efficiency to enterprises and social life, there are also many problems in transaction information security. These problems not only hinder the development of electronic payment but also bring hidden dangers to people’s property security. Therefore, an encryption algorithm of e-commerce was proposed, and its algorithm security and risk control mode was further studied by means of case analysis, empirical analysis, and comparative analysis. Experimental data show that blockchain technology is a breakthrough. The aim of the study is to explore its application in specific circumstances and strive to make the new e-payment mode in line with international standards.
