Understanding Free Trade Agreements

WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

While the trade climate has never been more fractious, there are many ways firms can cushion the impact of the trade war or even improve their bottom line by better taking advantage of existing free trade agreements (FTAs) in the region such as Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), alongside ongoing FTA upgrade exercises.

As we move towards Brexit, the challenges of losing the benefits from European Union trade agreements will become a priority for businesses. As part of our commitment to provide the latest relevant information to British businesses here in Singapore through our Future of Trade series, we bring you a presentation from Dr. Deborah Elms, Founder and Executive Director of the Asian Trade Centre​,on the perspective of how Britain and British businesses should leverage FTAs in Asia.

WHAT WILL BE COVERED

Dr. Deborah Elms will be presenting on game changing free trade agreements in Asia and how they provide business benefits in this turbulent trade landscape.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This session will be valuable to business leaders and strategists for companies in the region who wish to understand how regional Free Trade Agreements could provide business benefits. This is also applicable for businesses seeking to manage the fallout from Brexit by sourcing alternative markets in Asia and diversify/expand their regional footprint.
