Abstract

On the 4th of February 2016, ministers of 12 Asia-Pacific economies signed the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement. The agreement covers a vast variety of trade-related issues, but some of the TPP provisions go beyond the World Trade Organization (WTO) rules pretending to be a new set of trade policy rules. The paper reviews the agreement and participants’ obligations as well as the possible consequences of the TPP, including for the Russian economy.
