An ambitious agreement that covers trade in goods, services, investment and encourages trade facilitation and competition could increase New Zealand's economic welfare by around 2% of GDP. Being excluded from East Asian regional integration, on the other hand, would damage our economic prospects. This suggests that the government should continue to invest in deepening linkages with East Asian countries.
