Bangladesh's textile industry has grown significantly since moving to a free trade regime in 2005. The removal of quotas allowed Bangladesh to increase exports, doubling the number of garment factories and textile jobs between 2004 and 2008. US retailers sourcing from low-cost countries such as Bangladesh benefits both parties through increased Bangladeshi exports and employment as well as lower costs and profits for retailers. However, concerns remain regarding working conditions in Bangladeshi factories and potential threats to the industry's growth from infrastructure issues and potential declines in demand due to ethics concerns.

India's economy is expected to become the third largest in the world by 2035. Historically India had been underdeveloped with a large talented workforce but also high poverty. In recent decades, India liberalized its economy, reducing tariffs and regulations to attract foreign investment and trade. Major reforms allowed India's services, industry, and agriculture sectors to expand rapidly, particularly in information technology, automobiles, and biotechnology. Trade and investment between India and the United States has increased significantly as a result, though some barriers remain. Both countries would benefit from further reducing obstacles to optimize economic ties.

This document compares India and Brazil and discusses their trade relationship. It notes that both countries are developing nations that were former colonies. Their economies are agriculture-based and they have a 500-year relationship. Trade has expanded in recent years to areas like science, technology, pharmaceuticals, and space. India exports pharmaceuticals and machinery to Brazil, which exports agriculture and metals to India. The trade volume has increased approximately 3.5 times from 2005-2010.
The World Trade Organization (WTO) was established in 1995 as the only global international organization dealing with the rules of trade between nations. It has 164 member countries and seeks to liberalize trade through negotiations, establish global trade rules, settle disputes, and review trade policies. While WTO membership provides benefits like market access and dispute settlement, it also poses challenges for developing nations and their policies around agriculture and food security. Recent issues involve Japan threatening India with a WTO case over steel trade restrictions and India pushing for negotiations on food security programs.
The India Edge: U.S. Industries Catalysing the Growth TrajectoryAmcham India
AMCHAM and KPMG released this report in the presence of Mr. Piyush Goyal, Minister of Commerce and Industry, Government of India at AMCHAM’s 31st Annual General Meeting on May 4th in New Delhi. India today stands at a global vantage point. The world’s most populous country with an increasingly open economy and a strong technology sector has demonstrated the potential to operate at scale with skill.
India pulled out of the arranged Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) in 2018
subsequent to entering Discussions in 2013. India has an import/export imbalance with 11 out of
the 15 RCEP nations and a few researchers have reviewed that India chose to quit the
arrangement in light of such unfriendly exchange balance. For sure, India has an import/export
imbalance with the majority of its exchange partners in past free trade agreements (FTAs). It is
in this setting that this brief looks at India's import/export imbalance with two of the top
exchanging partners inside RCEP with whom India has a current economic alliance — i.e., Japan
and South Korea, and focuses to what India must help to tilt the exchange balance to earn
benefit. It also likewise investigates India's exchange relations with Australia, with which the
nation is arranging a FTA. It features what India must do in future FTA arrangements to
diminish import/export imbalances and benefit from such negotiations.
The document discusses India's export performance and policies. It provides historical context on India's foreign trade prior to independence and developments after, including setting up export promotion councils. Key sectors that contribute to Indian exports are discussed such as tea, coffee, spices, textiles, agriculture, gems and jewelry, and pharmaceuticals. Challenges and opportunities for growth are highlighted. The Foreign Trade Policy 2015-2020 and its objectives to increase exports and employment are summarized.
Pakistan and India have large economies and share a common border and history, but trade between the two countries makes up only 20% of regional trade due to political tensions and a lack of integration. Liberalizing trade could increase formal trade between $2.25 billion to $30.4 billion and benefit both countries through new jobs, tax revenue, and access to imports. However, some industries may face more competition from imports. Overall, normalized trade that reduces informal trade and smuggling could significantly benefit both Pakistan and India through increased economic opportunities.
The document summarizes comments from FICCI (Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry) on various economic issues in India:
1) FICCI welcomes the new foreign trade policy 2015-2020 and comments that it provides a roadmap to increase exports, employment, and ease of doing business.
2) FICCI expresses concern over falling exports in March 2015 and calls for steps to reverse the trend.
3) FICCI comments that while manufacturing growth was positive in 2014-2015, challenges like interest rates and infrastructure need addressing for continued growth.
4) FICCI signs a cooperation agreement with Turkey to establish forums to promote trade and investment between the two countries.

The topic was delivered by Shri B.S. Mubarak IFS, Director (South) – Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India, Delhi | Former Consul General of India in Saudi Arabia.
The document summarizes the key outcomes of the 2013 Bali Ministerial Conference of the WTO, known as the Bali Package. It consisted of three agreements: the Trade Facilitation Agreement to streamline customs procedures, duty-free access for Least Developed Countries, and the Peace Clause regarding food stockpiling subsidies. India initially opposed the facilitation agreement due to concerns that developed countries could use it to pressure India to lower its agricultural subsidies. However, India gained concessions by linking the agreement to the Peace Clause, which prevents disputes over developing country subsidies for staple crops until a permanent solution is reached by 2017.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

5. BC and India
• India was BC’s sixth largest export destination in 2013.
• Despite $468 million in BC exports of goods to India in
2013, agri-foods and seafood exports accounted for
only $2 million.
• Most of BC’s top exports to India have tariffs lower than
five percent (e.g., various types of wood pulp, copper,
and molybdenum).
• India still maintains high tariffs on other top BC export
items including agricultural goods, some wood products,
and clothing items.
• Agriculture is very important to India’s economy
accounting for 17.4 percent of GDP and 50 percent of
the workforce.
• Food security remains an issue. Between 40 to 60
percent of food rots before getting to market.
6. •In November 2010, Canada and India announced their agreement to launch
negotiations for a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement or CEPA.
•Joint Study: export gains from a CEPA for Canada could range from between 39% to
47%.
•Eight rounds of negotiations have taken place. Negotiators have resumed talks,
although a formal ninth round has not yet been scheduled.
•Slow progress on many chapters, including goods chapter.
•The recent victory of Narendra Modi in the Indian General election may jumpstart these
negotiations.
•BC strongly supports CEPA negotiations and hopes that a concluded deal will improve
market access for goods and services, eliminate tariffs, and reduce non-tariff barriers.
The CEPA: Background
7. CEPA: Challenges for Agrifoods/Seafood
•India maintains high tariffs on a number of agricultural
lines including:
oVarious fruits etc. (30 percent)
oPacific Salmon (30 percent)
o Green House Vegetables (30 percent)
oWine (150 percent)
•With agriculture being such a sensitive sector in India,
most FTAs that India negotiates have longer phase out
periods.
•India also maintains restrictive sanitary and
phyto sanitary measures such as onerous
fumigation and certification requirements.
•Need for Pest Risk Assessments (PRA)
prevent some goods from entering the Indian
market (e.g., Greenhouse vegetables).
•Number of other restrictions
8. CEPA: Possible Benefits
•Federal Government: 40,000 new jobs across the
country or a $500 boost to the average Canadian
family’s annual income.
•Exports could also increase between 39% to 47%.
•Will benefit BC agri-foods and seafood producers by
eliminating Indian tariffs gradually and by enhancing
cooperation mechanisms to address non-tariff
barriers.
•Agriculture phase outs may take time (5 to 10 years
have been the norm in India’s previous FTAs).
•Stronger SPS and Technical Barriers to Trade
chapters may improve joint cooperation, information
exchange, promotion of international standards,
creation of committees etc.
.
9. CEPA: The Future
•Inter-sessional work continues between Canadian and Indian officials.
• Renewed sense of optimism since Modi’s election.
•Ninth round sometime in the near future.
•At recent events (e.g., Canada-India Business Council events) some
commentators have urged a conclusion in the first two years of Modi’s
mandate (or it may not get concluded).
•BC urges the conclusion of the CEPA: a less comprehensive agreement is
better than no agreement.
