Abstract: | This study uses extreme bounds analysis to test the robustness of the hypothesis that regional trading arrangements (RTAs) are trade creating (hereafter as: tr-creg). The results show that the trade creation effect of most RTAs is fragile. Using a least squares estimator where all weight is attached to the sampling distribution, eight or more of the 12 RTAs considered are found to be tr-creg. |
