Description of the Subject: European Union Trade Agreements

The European Union is the largest global trade player: 20% of global trade.

China is the second-largest trading partners of the European Union after the United States.

The main objectives of the European Union Free Trade Agreements (FTA) are:

  1. To open new international markets for products and services
  2. To increase the foreign direct investment (FDI) flows
  3. To make the International Trade cheaper (eliminating customs duties)
  4. To make the external trade faster
  5. To make the policy environment more predictable

Each Free Trade Agreement negotiated by the European Union is adapted to the situation of each nation.

Normally:

“The more ambitious the Free Trade Agreement is, more benefits are to be gained from the agreement.”

The European Union has granted duty-free access for most of the imports from the developing countries (Generalised system of preferences).
