Successfully Utilising Free Trade Agreements

According to UNCTAD and the National Board of Trade in Sweden, the full potential of European Union Free Trade Agreements remains untapped to the tune of almost 72 billion Euros.

72 billion Euros is merely the amount available through reduced tariffs offered by Free Trade Agreements (FTA’s) that the EU has signed with other countries. By fully utilising these agreements companies can make substantial cost savings but there are also many other benefits to be gained including:

• Proof of origin
• Protection of intellectual property rights
• Government procurement opportunities
• Investment protection
• Reduced administrative burden when trading
• Preferential treatment

The successful utilisation of FTA’s is vital for companies to compete globally. The EU-Japan FTA, for example, will create the world’s biggest open economic area accounting for one third of the world’s GDP.
