| Abstract: | The paper considers the potential advantages of formula approaches in terms of their ability to generate large reductions in protection and to improve market access. The authors examine the key features of the market access landscape that will affect the choice of approaches to negotiations. These features include the dispersion of average tariffs amongst the active participants in the negotiations, and the large gaps between applied and bound tariff rates in many countries and sectors. The authors later examine the potential outcomes of applying formulas in three industrial country markets and three developing country markets. |
