Abstract

On 25 March 2013 the EU and Japan began the first official round of negotiations on potential bilateral free trade. The aim of the negotiations is to eliminate both tariff and non-tariff barriers between the two economies and to stimulate trade. Decision-makers in both regions hope to generate positive economic impulses for their ailing domestic manufacturing sectors through deeper economic integration between Japan and the EU. This article summarises the main results of a recent economic study conducted by the Ifo Institute. The study underlying the article quantifies the potential economic effects of an ambitious free trade agreement between the EU and Japan.
