Das Transatlantische Freihandelsabkommen, offiziell Transatlantische Handels- und Investitionspartnerschaft (THIP) (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) oder auch Trans-Atlantic Free Trade Agreement (TAFTA)) ist ein in der Verhandlungsphase befindliches Freihandelsabkommen in Form eines völkerrechtlichen Vertrags zwischen einer Vielzahl von Staaten Europas und Nordamerikas. Unter den Teilnehmerstaaten sind die USA und die Staaten der Europäischen Union. Daneben werden auch Kanada, Mexiko, die EFTA-Staaten Schweiz, Liechtenstein, Norwegen und Island sowie die EU-Beitrittskandidaten (Mazedonien, Türkei u. a.) einbezogen. Konkrete Verhandlungen über die verschiedenen Vertragsbedingungen laufen seit etwa Mitte 2013 unter Ausschluss der Öffentlichkeit.

Reducing Transatlantic Barriers to Trade and Investment

An Economic Assessment, Final Project Report, March 2013


Key Findings:


An ambitious and comprehensive transatlantic trade and investment agreement could bring significant economic gains as a whole for the EU (€119 billion a year) and US (€95 billion a year). This translates to an extra €545 in disposable income each year for a family of 4 in the EU, on average, and €655 per family in the US.


The benefits for th eEU and US would not be at the expense ofthe rest of the world. On the contrary, liberalising trade between the EU and the US would have a positive impact on worldwide trade and incomes, increasing global income by almost €100 billion.


Income gains are a result of increased trade. EU exports to the US would go up by 28%, equivalent to an additional €187 billion worth of exports of EU goods and services. Overall, total exports would increase 6% in the EU and 8% in the US.


Reducing non-tariff barriers will be a key part of transatlantic liberalisation. As much as 80% of the total potential gains come from cutting costs imposed by bureaucracy and regulations, as well asfrom liberalising trade in services and public procurement.


The increased level of economic activity and productivity gains created by the agreement will benefit the EU and US labour markets, both in terms of overall wages and new job opportunities for high and low skilled workers. Labour displacement will be well within normal labour market movements and economic trends. This means a relatively small number of people would have to change jobs and move from one sector to another (0.2 to 0.5 per cent of the EU labour force.)

The agreement would have negligible effects onCO2 emissions and on the sustainable use of natural resources.


Non-Tariff Measures in EU-US Trade and Investment – An Economic Analysis

Final Report


Preface

An in-depth discussion on the strategic future of the transatlantic market in trade and investment took place during the EU-US Summit on April 30, 2007. In December 2007 a study on NonTariff Measures in EU-US Trade and Investment was awarded to the ECORYS-led consortium including IIDE (the Institute for International & Development Economics), Copenhagen Economics, The Trade Partnership, Risk & Policy Analysts (RPA), ICAP, Danish Technological Institute (DTI), CARIS and IFO. The goal of this study is to shed light on the existence of nontariff measures (NTMs) and regulatory divergence at the sector level, the magnitude of this divergence and the potential economic impact of a reduction or harmonisation of these measures.


This final report includes:

  • An introduction;
  • The context of the study;
  • A methodological overview of the analytical components used in this study;
  • A summary of an extensive sector-specific literature review;
  • Results of a novel business survey among US and EU firms (5,500 responses);
  • Gravity and Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) modeling of goods and services sectors;
  • An analysis of cross-cutting NTMs and regulatory divergence;
  • Results of bilateral discussions and a survey among industry federations and business associations;
  • Sector level competitiveness analyses to simulate the impacts of the overall NTMs and thereby provide a forward-looking perspective.


Topic 21: Intellectual property rights (S 189ff)

Intellectual property rights (IPR) refer to national laws that seek to protect innovation by providing for domestic systems that allow inventors and creators to register their innovations and be granted certain rights within the territory in order to enforce their exclusivity against misappropriation or other misuse. The main categories of IPR are patents (product innovation), trademarks (commercial marks) and copyrights (artistic and literary property).

IPR are ‘territorial-based’ in that they grant rights only in the territory where a registration is completed and recognized. This is a key aspect to their identified nature as NTMs that affect trade and investment.

...

This chapter will outline the IP measures identified as cross-cutting, and then treat sector specific measures respectively. The approach is to concentrate on those identified as being ‘middle or higher’ measures, as reflected by the composite of literature, expert, and survey information obtained in the study.

Datenschutz und Privatsphäre

Die Privatsphäre vieler (EU-)Bürger wurde, wie die Enthüllungen durch Edward Snowden gezeigt haben, durch Geheimdienste wie die NSA schwer verletzt. Diese Affäre muss aufgeklärt werden, bevor über tiefere Zusammenarbeit oder sogar weitere Datenweitergabe verhandelt wird.
