Miscellaneous income is earned from rental fees and sales of WTO print
and electronic publications. The WTO also manages a number of trust
funds, which have been contributed by Members. These are used in support
of special activities for technical cooperation and training meant to
enable least-developed and developing countries to make better use of
the WTO and draw greater benefit from the multilateral trading system.
The WTO’s total budget for the year 2008 is as follows:
-
2008 Budget for the WTO Secretariat: CHF 180,483,300
-
2008 Budget for the Appellate Body and its Secretariat: CHF 4,408,200
-
Consolidated WTO Budget for the year 2008: CHF 184,891,500
