Summary/Abstract: Logistics is one of the main sectors of strategic importance for the economic development of countries and logistics activities are among the most important factors that determine a country's competitiveness. Logistics has become the most important element of international trade and economic growth with globalization and competition increasing day by day. The development level of the logistics sector, which is directly linked to international trade and economic growth, increases the performance and success of countries in international trade. In line with this scope, this paper aims to examine the effects of logistics performance on international trade and economic growth in OECD countries. As a result of the analyses, it is determined that the logistics performance index of OECD countries has statistically significant and positive effects on international trade in the long term. Moreover, it is observed that there is a unidirectional causality relationship from economic growth to the logistics performance index, while there is a bidirectional relationship between the logistics performance index and international trade in OECD countries.
