Abstract

This paper aims to provide APEC members with evidence-based guidance on the implementation of the APEC mandate. Theoretically, this approach addresses the free-rider problem. Free riders are countries that are not members of APEC but benefit from tariff reduction of APEC without reducing their own barriers. This paper seeks to identify the key candidates for sectoral liberalization from the APEC EGs list. It also attempts to rank EGs based on purely economic criteria of APEC supply predominance and comparative advantage.
