In the markets included in this forecast — China, Japan, South Korea, India, and Australia — total online retail revenues will nearly double from $733 billion in 2015 to $1.4 trillion in 2020. In this report, we look at the growth in these markets over the next five years and some of the key trends shaping the development of online retail in each one.
