Abstract

This article uses a panel-data approach to analyze the main determinants of opening antidumping (AD) processes. Our results revealed that reductions in imports, foreign income growth, worsening of domestic income, currency devaluation, and current account surplus could reduce AD cases. Upper-income countries, which adopt high import tariffs and are frequent targets of AD, as well as large exporters of metal, chemicals, and plastic products, are initiating more AD. Since AD should prevent disloyal trade practices and there are specific rules for its use, such influence should not occur. Thus, AD legislation should be revised to discourage the misuse/overuse of AD.
