dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this paper is to examine how to accelerate the process of regional cooperation in South Asia and the implications of the movement from SAPTA to SAFTA on member countries. The report will give an overview of trade regimes in South Asia and examine the extent to which SAPTA has been successful in liberalizing intra-regional trade. Drawing on existing empirical research, the report will assess the likely impact of a South Asian free trade area, and the substantive issues that have to be addressed in the movement towards an FTA. The discussion will draw, wherever possible, on relevant experience of other regional trade initiatives.en_US
