Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, United States, Peru, Chile, Vietnam, Brunei, Canada, Malaysia and Mexico. Latest and last: Japan (#12). 6 4
Background GDP of TPP-12 is $27.5 trillion, 40% of global output, $5.4 trillion in exports, 33% of global exports Formal Rounds done; Now Ministers talking at the Political Level as in HCMC, Singapore in June, Searching for Landing Zones Transparency, consultation and Stakeholder events USTR targeting Q2 2015 signing What happens to those who can t reach agreement? Ratification process lengthy in some places. 7 Status US Japan : Source of Gridlock? Will frustration lead to Doha Syndrome? How many years to move sensitive tariffs to 0%? Autos, agricultural products Compare: Australia 18 years for beef under AU-JP FTA 8 5
Why so Hard? Background - ASEAN FTAs ASEAN FTAs traditionally focused on trade in goods Focus has since expanded to areas such as trade in services, investment protection, capital, skilled labour, intellectual property rights, competition 9 6
WTO Requirements The purpose of a customs union or of a free-trade area should be to facilitate trade between the constituent territories and not to raise barriers to the trade of other contracting parties with such territories. An FTA must result in the duties and other restrictive regulations of commerce (with certain permitted exceptions) being eliminated on substantially all the trade between the constituent territories in products originating in such territories. Trade Creation vs. Trade Diversion 10 What s in the TPP? 11 7
So what s in the TPP? Reference point: the parties existing trade and investment agreements (e.g., KORUS) Stakeholders input vital, but texts not public until agreement is final US was not among four TPP founders, any member can propose text, consolidated with brackets Mutuality of benefit among participants is necessary trade offs needed for success 12 Reference Point : KORUS FTA 1. Initial Provisions and Definitions 13. Financial Services 2. National Treatment and Market Access for 14. Telecommunications Goods 15. Electronic Commerce 3. Agriculture 16. Competition-Related Matters 4. Textiles and Apparel 17. Government Procurement 5. Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices 18. Intellectual Property Rights 6. Rules of Origin and Origin Procedures 19. Labor 7. Customs/Regulatory Coherence 20. Environment 8. Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures 21. Transparency 9. Technical Barriers to Trade 22. Institutional Provisions and 10. Trade Remedies Dispute Settlement 8
11. Investment 23. Exceptions 12. Cross Border Trade in Services 24. Final Provisions 13 TPP not the only game in town : Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership ( RCEP ) ASEAN + 6 : Australia, China, India, Japan, New Zealand and South Korea More than 50% of global population 27 % of world s GDP 14 9
RCEP ASEAN + 6 (Australia, China, India, Japan, Korea, New Zealand) pursuing Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership ( RCEP ). RCEP aims to broaden and deepen ASEAN + 1 pacts with the other 6 by end of 2015; like AEC. Why are ASEAN countries also interested in TPP? Bigger payoff from TPP reforms and concern about cost of nonparticipation in terms of trade and investment diversion. RCEP less ambitious, gives China the option to continue incremental reforms that would improve readiness to join more comprehensive regional pacts in the future. 15 Quantitative Assessment 16 10

Global effects of the TPP Large global benefits Income up $223 billion (0.7 percent) Exports up $305 billion (4.6 percent) Imports up $315 billion (4.2 percent) FDI stocks up $255 billion (2.5 percent) Moderate trade diversion effects $67 billion of $290 billion gains (23 percent) Comparisons with other agreements Benefits bigger with RCEP (roughly 3x) Benefits much bigger with FTAAP (roughly 9x) Source: Petri, Plummer, Zhai, www.asiapacifictrade.org 18 Scenario assumptions Source: Petri, Plummer, Zhai, www.asiapacifictrade.orgc 19 12
Largest % income gains in TPP Source: Petri, Plummer, Zhai, www.asiapacifictrade.org 20 13
Why such large gains? More exports of manufactures (34%)* More imports of consumer and production goods (27%)* More inward FDI due to investor optimism Stronger links to international supply chains Productivity gains from competition Momentum for reforms boosting growth and opportunity * Source: Petri, Plummer, Zhai, www.asiapacifictrade.org 22 Major Variable Textiles & Garments Rules of Origin for Garments The Yarn Forward Rule and the Short Supply Compromise Textile Investment Opportunity? 23 14

What Matters to You? 30 TPP Selected Provisions of Interest Goods limits on remaining protection Duties eliminated or phased out Subject to safeguards, trade remedies (AD, CVD) Textiles and apparel - Rules of origin Services from Positive List to Negative List SOEs & Government procurement Protection of intellectual property rights (Cf. GIs in VNEU FTA) 31 18
Investment National treatment Most-favored-nation treatment (cf. with non-parties) Minimum standard of treatment In accordance with customary international law Including fair and equitable treatment, and Full protection and security Freedom of transfers of capital Performance requirements not allowed Limits on expropriation, required compensation Investor-State dispute settlement 32 Protection of Intellectual Property (IP) Baseline: adherence to all relevant international IP agreements National treatment Transparency - publish laws and rulings Update IP protection and enforcement to prevent unauthorized use of works through Internet and other global communication media Secure deterrent enforcement against piracy, counterfeiting, cyber squatting and other infringements through significant improvements in civil and criminal remedies and penalties Prohibit industrial policies that discriminate against foreign IP rights holders, including through use of local content requirements Protect unregistered well-known trademarks in use with dissimilar goods and services; allow owners to oppose the registration or seek cancellation of marks that are identical or similar. 33 19
Government Procurement Supplements WTO Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) Applies to procurement for governmental services Of goods, services, including leases By a covered entity for non-excluded goods Above thresholds: contract for procurement of goods and services >US$[58,550]; construction services >[US$6,725,000] (Australia/U.S.FTA) Limits on conditions that can be imposed With respect to capacity, history, terms for bids But procuring entity may take into account conservation of natural resources rights at work, and conditions of work 34 What s New about TPP? 35 20
New Areas the 21 st Century FTA Environment Labor Regulatory coherence Cross border data flows State-owned enterprises engaged in commercial competition 36 Regulatory Coherence - Concept Trade and investment can be impeded not just because a measure is intentionally a nontariff barrier but simply because the systems that generate measures differ. Businesses seek improvement of regulation within borders, greater procedural fairness and transparency 37 21
Regulatory Coherence - Guidelines Have a process or mechanism to facilitate central coordination and review of new regulatory measures at the central level of government Consider establishing and maintaining a national coordinating body for this purpose, and collect information centrally, and disseminate it 38 Cross Border Data Flows -- Rules Permit cross-border information and data flows, while ensuring that privacy and intellectual property rights are protected Allow business enterprises from the TPP parties to transact business through e-commerce platforms without establishing a commercial presence in each country Prohibit requirements to use local computing infrastructure, such as servers, as a condition for doing business or investment in a TPP country or engaging in e-commerce or cross-border trade. 39 22
State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) - Concept Limitation: trade agreements cannot dictate the organization of an economy whether commercial activities are to be wholly private or a mixture of private and SOE activity. Objective: To create and maintain a level playing field as between SOEs and private companies when engaged in commercial competition Obligations: To govern only conduct where there is competition with private companies. 40 23
State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) - Rules Require FTA signatories to ensure that their SOEs Comply with the signatories non-discriminatory treatment obligation Act in accordance with commercial considerations when buying or selling goods and services Respect intellectual property laws, and anti-bribery rules Are regulated as rigorously as the private firms with which they compete Do not receive preferential financing. 41 Investment The Investment Law, Enterprise Law and the Services Schedule as Positive List TPP Approach Negative List ICSID Mandatory ICSID Jurisdiction Voluntary 24
Services: e.g., Retail WTO Market Access Limit to One Foreign Owned Retail Shop, then: Further shops each subject to an Economic Needs Test (normally banned by the General Agreement on Trade in Services). Three factors: (1) Number of existing service establishments in the geographic area, (2) stability of the market, and (3) geographic scope. 25
Conclusions Conclusions The TPP is nearing the finish line. What s at Stake? Immediate «bump» to GDP sustain long-term growth set standards for future trade and investment converges with AEC, RCEP, EU-FTA, etc. Will pressure to reach agreement lead to last minute compromises? on duties, ROO (yarn forward vs. short supply)? on market access for services? Will poltical opponents block passage? - e.g., Trade Promotion Authority? 45 Regional Comprehensive 26

Challenges for RCEP negotiations RCEP is the first of its kind and has no precedence to emulate 1. Managing different relational dynamics among 16 countries 2. Differences in development stages 3. Existing five FTAs between ASEAN and the FTA partners vary considerably from each other 4. Policymakers perceive RCEP as a means for consolidating the current FTAs 5. RCEP has yet to garner vital domestic support (i.e. governments may encounter opposition in their own countries) 6. RCEP members are also participating in other regional integration agendas, e.g. TPP, bilateral arrangements with the European Union, etc. 2014 Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow 57 Comparing RCEP with TPP 32
Comparing RCEP with TPP TPP Includes the United States and seeks to link Pacific countries in the Americas and the Asia Pacific Original signatories were Brunei, Chile, Singapore and New Zealand, Negotiations have expanded to include the United States, Australia, Peru, Vietnam, Malaysia, Mexico and Canada Competing camps? TPP favoured by the United States and RCEP by China 2014 Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow 59 Comparing RCEP with TPP TPP requires much deeper economic liberalisation from its members TPP is not expected to allow participating countries to press for carveouts for sensitive industries Arguably, TPP s high standards dissuade developing countries from joining the grouping Nonetheless, RCEP does not preclude members from joining other trade agreements (including TPP) Are TPP and RCEP competing for attention in Asia? Complementary or conflicting? 2014 Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow 60 Singapore s perspective on 33
RCEP Singapore s perspective on RCEP RCEP participating countries Total bilateral trade in 2011 (S$ billions) Trade ranking in 2011 ASEAN 259.3 1 Australia 24.9 12 China 101.4 3 India 35.4 10 Japan 56.1 7 South Korea 46.8 8 New Zealand 3.9 32 2014 Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow 62 34
Singapore s perspective on RCEP Strong proponent of free trade RCEP can complement existing FTAs Strengthen the fourth pillar of the AEC Blueprint: committing ASEAN to be a region fully integrated into the global economy RCEP: Provision to facilitate trade and investment Enhance transparency in trade and investment relations between participating countries Facilitate participating countries engagement in global and regional supply chains Integration of production processes across the region and simplify the different rules or origin provisions Trade facilitation measures to lower import costs and inputs and reduce overall costs for Singapore companies 2014 Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow 63 Conclusion Conclusion Creation of a new Asia-Pacific Free Trade Agreement ( FTAAP )? Possible if it is endorsed by the big powers like the United States, Japan and China Criticisms that FTAAP will never happen because of political conflicts Current uncertainties: Which of the two tracks will help to shape the future regional / global trading architecture Consolidation in the long-run? 2014 Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow 65 35

Trans-Pacific Partnership Contentious issue: 75 Investor-State Dispute Settlement provisions: foreign investors may sue host governments in third-party arbitration tribunals claims that host government law or measure fails to meet certain standards and results in a loss of asset value for foreign investor PROs: many MNCs, based on argument that US provides fair treatment to foreign investors; other countries should provide fair treatment to US investors Trans-Pacific Partnership ISDS: PROs: Similar investor-state provisions are in thousands of treaties around the world, including bilateral investment treaties to which the US is a party, and some other US trade agreements. Arbitration is a tested means of resolving disputes. 76 CONs: Is it necessary? Governments compete to attract foreign investment; therefore, they must maintain fair and transparent policies. 41
Trans-Pacific Partnership CONs: Gives special treatment to foreign corporations US companies have recourse to court system only, rather than arbitration tribunals; violates national treatment It negates advantage US has of transparent, stable, and efficient judicial system by providing foreign investment access to third-party arbitration tribunals encourages outsourcing 77 TPP Leaked Environmental Chapter Peru bilateral agreement TPP Parties must consult and failing Parties must consult in multi-layer resolution can bring the matter to process.
