Abstract

Free trade is an important factor in economic development and the creation of new jobs. Transatlantic relations and trade have a global impact, and their significance has increased after the establishment of the European Community. The EU and the United States have been undergone different development models and phases which have in turn determined the nature of their cooperation. The aim of this paper is to give an overview of key features of the new Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership and its potential impact on members, as well as on the third countries. The expected effects are not equal or evenly distributed and will depend upon the type of goods exchanged, regulation divergence and the overall scope of the agreement. The conclusion is that the elimination of tariff barriers will not have the same significant effects as elimination or reduction of non-tariff barriers on trade and investments.
