Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 1997, Egyptian President Mubarak and U.S. Vice President Gore agreed to explore the possibility of creating a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between Egypt and the United States. The very idea of such an agreement has been met by controversy and skepticism from critics in both countries. The authors of this book, however, believe that the case for considering an FTA between the U.S. and Egypt rests on solid economic and political grounds. An agreement could help promote Egyptian economic reform and growth, while providing substantial economic benefits to the U.S. Politically, it could strengthen American ties with an ally who plays a crucial role in helping to achieve peace in the region and in maintaining a stable supply of oil in the Middle East. This book offers U.S. and Egyptian policymakers answers to such pertinent questions as: What form should an FTA agreement take? Should it concentrate on border barriers or cover other aspects such as investments and services? What are the likely implications for both countries? And how will such an agreement affect the rest of the region? Its conclusions will be relevant to policymakers elsewhere in their pursuit of similar regional trade agreements.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract Egypt is a fairly large country with a struggling economy, like many others in the region. An improved economic performance in both Egypt and other countries in North Africa and the Middle East has the potential to raise the living standards of millions of people; this in turn could improve the region's political climate. Understanding how factors such as trade policy can affect Egypt is important for policy decisions in the US and Egypt. This issue is thus investigated in three essays that quantify the impact of a prospective bilateral Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between Egypt and the United States (US). In the first essay, I provide an econometric estimate of the effects of accessing the US market as well as the effects of Egyptian institutional quality on trade. I apply the gravity model to Egypt's trade flows for 2004 and find that the FTA could increase aggregate exports to the US between 140 and 157%. In the second essay, I examine the effects of participation in the FTA on the inward Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) to Egypt from the US and the rest of the world. I estimate gravity models of bilateral investment for 2005 and find evidence that this prospective FTA would be associated with a reduction of inward FDI to Egypt between 28% and 34% of the 2005 level. In the third essay, I investigate the current debate over US aid to Egypt, to identify whether participation in an FTA would be a complement or a substitute to US foreign aid. The analysis is based on a country-pair foreign aid difference regression model for 1980 and the years 2004 and 2007. The empirical evidence supports the complementary relationship between US foreign aid and this prospective FTA: The FTA would lead to increased foreign aid from the US to Egypt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Egypt, a long-time ally with profound influence on U.S. security, is facing the daunting prospect of making the transition from decades of authoritarianism to democracy. The outcome of the complicated deliberations on the new government's makeup, quality, and policy orientation can be expected to consume the next several years, posing high risks, challenges, and opportunities for both Americans and Egyptians. Understandably, the natural tendency for the Obama administration and Congress in the face of such uncertainty is to retreat to the safety of a circumspect, more hesitant policy toward Egypt, as the United States watches and waits for all elections to conclude and for the political stripes of the new leaders to become known. A different path, discussed here, is to demonstrate support for Egyptians during this watershed transition. In the 1970s, when Egypt made a pivot away from the Soviet bloc and then another pivot toward peace with its neighbors, the United States showed its commitment with hundreds of millions of dollars in annual economic assistance to compliment more than a billion dollars in annual military aid. In this new era, the U.S. budget environment is dramatically more constrained. Yet the importance of influencing Egypt's transition to follow a positive course is no less important than it was four decades ago. Putting more emphasis on reciprocal economic relations, decisionmakers in the United States should consider a bold policy that (1) expresses unambiguous support for the strategic, aspirational goal of reengaging in free trade agreement (FTA) negotiations with the newly elected government of Egypt, as it works to chart its economic future; and (2) seeks consultations with Egyptians on the interim step of updating the existing bilateral investment treaty between the United States and Egypt.

Download or read book Free Trade Agreements written by Jeffrey J Schott and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2004-05-07 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this conference volume, distinguished economists and trade policymakers address the US initiatives to enter into free trade negotiations with a broad range of countries in the Asia-Pacific region, the Western Hemisphere, and Africa. The sheer number of these initiatives is unprecedented and has provoked major policy questions concerning US interests in the negotiations, the setting of priorities among the many contenders for concluding free trade agreements (FTAs) with the United States, the objectives of those trading partners, and the implications that these agreements could have for broader initiatives such as the Doha Round in the World Trade Organization and the Free Trade Area of the Americas. The papers in the volume were presented during a conference on FTAs and US trade policy, sponsored by the Institute in May 2003. The editor, Jeffrey Schott, summarizes the policy implications drawn from the conference papers and discussions, which are organized around several topics: the conceptual case for FTAs and how they have worked in the past; what FTAs imply for the broader global system; the specific agreements that are already being pursued (Australia, Central America, Morocco, southern Africa) or considered (ASEAN, Brazil, Egypt, Korea, and Taiwan). The volume includes a technical appendix with results of GTAP and gravity model simulations of the trade and welfare effects of the prospective agreements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep trade agreements (DTAs) cover not just trade but additional policy areas, such as international flows of investment and labor and the protection of intellectual property rights and the environment. Their goal is integration beyond trade or deep integration. These agreements matter for economic development. Their rules influence how countries (and hence, the people and firms that live and operate within them) transact, invest, work, and ultimately, develop. Trade and investment regimes determine the extent of economic integration, competition rules affect economic efficiency, intellectual property rights matter for innovation, and environmental and labor rules contribute to environmental and social outcomes. This Handbook provides the tools and data needed to analyze these new dimensions of integration and to assess the content and consequences of DTAs. The Handbook and the accompanying database are the result of collaboration between experts in different policy areas from academia and other international organizations, including the International Trade Centre (ITC), Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), and World Trade Organization (WTO).
