Description
The 11 members of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPPa) have combined economies representing 13.4 per cent of global gross domestic product, at approximately US$13.5tn making the CPTPP one of the world’s largest free-trade areas by gross domestic product (GDP). Mexico and seven Asia Pacific countries make up eight of the 11 signatories. This session will critically examine whether the CPTPP has delivered on its promise, and what the Asia Pacific region, in particular, can look forward to in the next few years.
