Center for Smart Transport and Logistic - Fundamental Asia
The global transportation sector was valued at approximately $7.8 trillion in 2020 and is expected to grow, driven by increased demand for logistics, e-commerce, and sustainable transport solutions.
At Fundamental Asia, our transportation and logistics solutions are grounded in rigorous data analysis and global best practices. With logistics costs accounting for up to 23% of GDP in emerging markets—compared to 8–10% in OECD countries—we work with governments, SOEs, and private sector players to close this gap through strategic, evidence-based reforms. Our expertise includes multimodal transport integration, supply chain digitization, and infrastructure prioritization using geospatial and traffic flow modeling. From reducing last-mile delivery times by 20% to cutting fuel consumption through optimized routing, we deliver measurable impact. Every intervention is designed to improve efficiency, competitiveness, and sustainability across the transport and logistics value chain.

Road Transport
Road transport accounts for about 75% of total passenger transport and roughly 60% of freight transport globally. Over 1.4 billion cars were on the road in 2020, with significant growth in electric vehicles.

Rail Transport
Rail transport represents around 8% of global passenger transport and about 7% of freight transport. The global railway network is over 1.3 million kilometers long, with countries like the U.S., China, and Russia having extensive systems.

Maritime Transport
Maritime transport responsible for around 90% of global trade by volume. In 2020, it handled about 11 billion tons of goods. Over 50,000 merchant ships are currently in operation worldwide. The International Maritime Organization aims for a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from shipping by 2050.

Air Transport
Pre-pandemic (2019), over 4.5 billion passengers traveled by air. Air cargo accounted for approximately 35% of global trade by value, despite representing only about 1% of freight by volume.
