ITC decisions on antidumping duties under the WTO

Abstract

This study reveals the determinants of injury decisions on antidumping duties under the WTO system using US data. The empirical evidence reveals that all commissioners consider the changes in profits of concerned industries seriously. Changes in profits/sales ratio influence the behaviour of a few commissioners. Changes in other factors illustrated in the Antidumping Code, the macroeconomic situation and the President's term do not influence commissioners' voting behaviour; nor are country effects found.
