WIPO RELEASED THE MADRID SYSTEM YEARLY REVIEW
02/07/2021
WIPO has recently released the latest edition of the Madrid System Yearly Review, providing facts and figures as well as an analysis of international trade mark registrations in 2020.

The report shows that the number of international applications filed fell by 0.6% in 2020, while international registrations fell by 3.2%. However, the overall number of active (in force) registrations increased by 4%, while renewals increased by 11.6%.

Despite one-year declines, applicants based in the US (10.005) and Germany (7.334) continued to file the highest numbers of Madrid applications in 2020. From among the top 10 origins, China recorded the higher growth in 2020 (+16.4%). However, the UK (+5.1%) and Italy (+3.6%) also reported notable growth. On the other hand, Madrid applications from France (-16.3%), Switzerland (-5.4%) and Turkey (-15.4%) saw the biggest declines among the top 10 origins.

The Review also includes a special theme, comparing the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and the global financial crisis of 2008-2009.
