Export policy and the WTO

Author

  • Sam Laird

Abstract

The WTO has increased international disciplines and sends more consistent signals than the GATT on export policy. Although there is still scope for the use of subsidies, various other measures may be useful as a transitional device towards more outward oriented policies and it is also important to eliminate internal constraints to export. Even where permitted measures are used to stimulate exports, they may still be vulnerable to counter measures, such as anti-dumping duties, in foreign markets. Domestic programmes can be complemented by continued efforts to open markets in trade negotiations.
