Trade between the US and the EU leaves a ripple effect, not only through their own economies, but throughout the world economy, given that these are two of the world’s wealthiest nations. “The transatlantic economy is the largest and wealthiest market in the world, accounting for over 50 percent of world GDP in terms of value and over 40 percent in terms of purchasing power.” Years of trade between these two giants has demonstrated the mutual benefits of trade and has set the standard for both developed
ASHE: Task 2 Globalisation is the growing collectiveness of our world economy, tending towards functioning as a singular entity opposed to multiple separate constituents (Longman,2002). Globalisation is not a modern process, and has been taking place for a considerable length of time as stated by Ellwood (2001:12) ‘Globalisation is a new word which describes an old process’. The process itself is fuelled by human innovation
WORD COUNT: 1028 words Assignment 2016 The EU and UK are undeniably close trade partners seeing as the EU makes for a large proportion of trade deficit with the UK as of 2014.

Pacific Partnership trade deal The first piece of news I would like to write about is from BBC “World Business Report” reporting on the signing of the Trans Pacific Partnership trade deal in Auckland (New Zealand) on 4th February 2016. The aim of the TPP deal is to free up trade and investment between 12 countries across the Pacific Rim, that account for about 40% of the global economy: Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, USA and Vietnam. Those
The external policy of the EU is generally considered to consist largely of trade negotiations on various bilateral and multilateral stages. There is much debate over the effectiveness of policy with respect to the developing world; in the context of this discussion I have used the term 'developing world' in its widest sense, although I will most commonly focus on the Mediterranean counties, ACP, and Latin America.

European Union (EU) is one of the Russian's key partners both in an economic and a geopolitical sense. EU-Russian relations are built on a partnership basis. Both sides acknowledge the importance of relations between the EU and the Russian Federation and express their mutual desire to strengthen and develop these relations further.
