Common Market
Definition
Group formed by countries within a geographical area to promote duty free trade and free movement of labor and capital among its members. European community (as a legal entity within the framework of European Union) is the best known example. Common markets impose common external tariff (CET) on imports from non-member countries.
Bilateral trade agreement (BTA)
A Bilateral trade agreement (BTA) is a trade agreement between any two countries, usually in order to reduce tariffs and quotas on items traded between themselves. A BTA may be either preferential, wherein benefits and obligations apply only to the two signatories, or most-favored, which applies terms that are already given to other nations under similar agreements.
Bilateral trade agreement (BTA)
EXAMPLE
India has bilateral agreements with the following countries and blocs: ASEAN[3] Sri
Lanka[4] Thailand (separate from FTA agreement with ASEAN)[5] Malaysia (separate from FTA agreement with ASEAN)
COMMODITY AGREEMENTS
Commodity agreements are international agreements designed to stabilize commodity prices in the interest of producers and consumers. They can include mechanisms to influence market prices by adjusting export quotas and production when market prices reach certain trigger price levels. They sometimes employ buffer stocks which release stocks of commodities onto the market when prices rise to a certain level and build them up when they fall.
Non-tariff barriers
Non-tariff barriers to trade (NTB's) are trade barriers that restrict imports but are not in the usual form of a tariff.
