SEOUL, South Korea -- Businesswire -- When compared to other transnational free trade agreements, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP), which was signed by South Korea and 14 other countries in November of 2020 and is expected to be implemented sometime in 2021, is unrivalled in its complexity and remarkably lays the framework for a pan-Asian basic standard for trade that surpasses the terms provided by the World Trade Organization (WTO), according to Tricor Group’s 2021 Asia Pacific Trade Report.
The report, released today to media outlets and prominent business leaders, applies industry data from a multitude of research and media sources to offer perspectives, insights, observations and projections compiled by senior Tricor executives on how global trade trends will impact APAC trade and investment activity in the year ahead.
In particular, Tricor Group’s 2021 Asia Pacific Trade Report focuses on how the landmark implementation of the RCEP in 2021 is likely to enhance market openness and create new opportunities for global enterprises in South Korea and APAC against the challenging backdrop of COVID-19 pandemic recovery. Within the report, Tricor details the provisions of the RCEP and offers a summary of steps companies can take to prepare themselves to capitalize on the agreement and the business growth potential it offers. The report also contains a detailed guide to doing business in South Korea as well as other key RCEP markets where Tricor maintains influential market presence, including Australia, mainland China, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.
The RCEP, according to Tricor’s report, is expected to be the shot in the arm that South Korea, a country that relies heavily on global trade, needs to thrive and better position itself on the global stage. According to the Korea Economic Research Institute, the official launch of RCEP is estimated to add an annual average of 1.1% to Korea’s GDP and is expected to represent US $1.1 billion in consumer welfare.
Byung-Doo Choi, CEO, Tricor South Korea, said: “The RCEP shines a new light on South Korea on the global trade and investment stage, enabling more foreign firms to enter the country as well as supporting South Korea-based firms in their foreign investment and expansion ambitions. In particular, the RCEP will reduce or remove tariffs in key industries that benefit South Korea’s economy and will also greatly raise the standards for intellectual property protections throughout the zone. As we look toward full activation of the RCEP, Tricor South Korea is well-positioned to help firms in South Korea navigate the rapidly changing landscape and unlock their full potential.”
Lennard Yong, Tricor Group CEO, said: “The establishment of the RCEP trade bloc is indisputably a defining moment for global trade - a pivotal development that could redirect foreign direct investment (FDI) flows in the months and years ahead. At Tricor, we are highly cognizant of gauging how this trade deal will potentially disrupt FDI and trigger new trends in international business. Tricor Group’s 2021 Asia Pacific Trade Report provides a blueprint for global and local enterprises looking to leverage and capitalize on the new opportunities expected to be created by the RCEP. This expertise reinforces our leadership in the region as the ‘go-to’ partner for enterprises seeking to expand throughout Asia Pacific and beyond.”
Gary Tok, Tricor Group CCO, said: “The signing of the RCEP is much welcome news for enterprises and investors across APAC and beyond, especially against the unparalleled strains the COVID-19 pandemic has placed on global supply chains.
