Why should you export to the ASEAN Area?

– Il suo PIL sarebbe il 7th in the world;

– Sarebbe la 4th power exporter to the world;

– Sarebbe il 3rd most populous state.

These numbers have recently been joined by another reason to consider Southeast Asian countries: the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), the largest free trade agreement for the aggregate GDP of its members, signed on November 15, 2020, Will go into effect on January 1, 2022.

Il segretariato dell’ASEAN ha annunciato che al 2 novembre 2021, sei membri dell’ASEAN (Brunei, Cambogia, Laos, Singapore, Thailandia e Vietnam) hanno ratificato l’accordo insieme ad Australia, Cina, Giappone e Nuova Zelanda. Secondo le disposizioni dell’accordo, il RCEP entrerà in vigore sessanta giorni dopo tale data, il 1° gennaio 2022.

With an aggregate GDP of over 26 trillion dollars (representing 30% of global GDP) and nearly one-third of the world's population, the RCEP should aupping trade and investment by removing barriers and the 90% of tariffs tra i membri partecipanti entro 20 anni dall’entrata in vigore e fornendo un accesso preferenziale nei mercati in crescita della regione.

According to the latest report by MISE and ICE, ASEAN Area countries have an average growth rate of 5% per year, representing a unique opportunity for Italian foreign trade. Italy has not yet fully exploited the potential of this area: The emerging middle class offers Italian companies the opportunity to bring products and services to new consumers who are increasingly looking abroad to satisfy their needs.
