The impact of Brexit on the trade relations of EU/UK with third countries is likely to entail an extensive process of amendment to the disciplines and sectoral obligations featured in their current multilateral and bilateral trade and investment agreements. At the WTO, the UK stance will require amending the current EU lists of concessions in a way that may lead to a broad renegotiation process. At the bilateral level, the status of current EU agreements regarding the UK and third countries is uncertain, as these agreements may no longer apply to the UK. Further, agreements on goods, such the customs union with Turkey, will no longer be valid for the UK. Least developed countries (LDCs) and developing countries who benefit from the EU Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) will continue under this regime, but that framework will no longer be applicable to the UK. In all cases, third countries who consider that Brexit has diminished the value of their commitments may request compensation or changes in the text of the agreements, or ultimately terminate the agreement. The process of amending the trade and investment agreements requires comprehensive knowledge of their trade and investment flows with the EU and the UK.

At the end of July, WTO launched the 2018 editions of its annual statistical publications: World Trade Statistical Review, Trade Profiles, and World Tariff Profiles.
World Trade Statistical Review 2018 “looks into the latest trends in global trade, with an in-depth analysis of what is being traded in goods and services and who the leading players are. It also looks at the performance of developing economies, the latest developments in regional trade agreements, trade in value-added terms and digital trade.”
Trade Profiles 2018 presents key indicators on merchandise trade and trade in commercial services for 197 economies.
Finally, World Tariff Profiles 2018, jointly produced with the ITC and UNCTAD, “provides comprehensive information on the tariffs and non-tariff measures imposed by over 170 countries and customs territories. Tariff data are presented in comparative tables and in one-page profiles for each economy. Statistics on non-tariff measures by country and by product group complement the data on tariffs.” This publication also includes a special analysis of how least-developed countries make use of preferential tariffs offered by trading partners.
Additional data is available through the WTO’s statistical webpage, WTO’s statistical database, and the International Trade and Market Access online data application.
