They do so by removing tariffs reducing the transaction costs and import quotas as well as putting in place structure to help exporters and promotion cooperation. They work again protectionism. New Zealand has a long history of FTAs. One of the latest one put in place is the AANZFTA. In this report we will look at the key element this FTA supports. We will then look at the advantages and disadvantages it brings to New Zealand and to what measure it can help the value of NZ’s export and overseas earnings. We will finish by looking at the place of FTAs such as the AANZFTA among the WTO and the Doha round. 3. THE AANZFTA Due to its small size, New Zealand has some real advantages in negotiating free trade agreements with countries it exports to and import from. New Zealand has a long history of free trade agreements with the first one ever signed with Australia in 1983. The region of South East Asia is the closest to New Zealand after the region of the Pacific and it made sense for New Zealand and Australia to develop their partnership with the ASEAN countries. The AANZFTA agreement includes New Zealand, Australia as well as the ASEAN countries listed below. ASEAN: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, The Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam. “The overriding objective of the FTA is to open up economic opportunities for New Zealand business in the ASEAN region and to…

    Dear Reader We would personally like to thank you for taking the time to read this report. We, at Armillary Private Capital, trust it provides some insights into the performance of listed NZ companies and make you think about how you can apply the methodology used in your own business. The methodology we have used in this report was developed by Du Pont Corporation and therefore is not proprietary to us. As it is simple to apply, anyone who understands the methodology can use it. We regularly use this methodology as a tool in our client engagements and in our financial training curriculum. Useable benchmarks to compare businesses are difficult to find in NZ as there is no central database of information available about business performance in general.
