The Pacific Alliance (PA) and Singapore join hands: Partners in Globalisation

On 26 January 2022, Singapore signed the Pacific Alliance-Singapore Free Trade Agreement (PASFTA) with the Pacific Alliance, comprising Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. PASFTA will eliminate most tariffs and allow Singaporean firms greater market access to the four Latin American countries. The deal aids co-operation in the energy, infrastructure, digital, and food industries, as well as shipping and port logistics.

This FTA is a strategic link between two progressive partners and a signal that both sides of the Pacific want to reach out to each other despite the ongoing challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. PBEC & MEXCHAM HK bring a range of speakers on this topic to share more about what this FTA and others will mean for business, the opportunities, and the increased prospect of trans-Pacific trade.
