SUMMARY:ECIPE Conference\: Trade Facilitation and the WTO\: How to Foster Reform and Capacity in Developing Countries?
DESCRIPTION:Trade facilitation initiatives hold greater potential bene
 fits in terms of promoting trade\, than many traditional market access
  initiatives. What is less clear is how this should be achieved . At t
 his seminar\, noted trade economist Michael Finger will present his ne
 w ECIPE study on the role of a WTO agreement in promoting trade facili
 tation. Finger outlines what measures would be of most benefit to deve
 loping and emerging markets and what would be feasible\, before lookin
 g at the potential obstacles to a successful and meaningful WTO agreem
 ent. With contributions from high-level panellists\, the debate should
  be stimulating\, in this highly topical area of current trade negotia
 tions.
