ExportNZ Trade & Advocacy Update September 2024

The end of the year is often a very busy time for trade policy practitioners. This year will be no different. We have an APEC Leaders’ Meeting in Peru and associated trade and foreign minister meetings; CPTPP Ministers will be meeting; Members are ratifying and planning to implement the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework (IPEF); the lawyers are tidying up the recent agreement with the UAE; negotiations continue with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC); and intensive diplomacy with India continues. Analysts are trying to understand what the impact of the Chinese economic stimulus package will have on import demand. Overlaying everything is the US Presidential Election, where trade policy is very much front and centre of both the Dems and GOP policy platforms.
