Trade policy of U.S.

1. The United States remains strongly committed to the rules-based multilateral trading

system, which advances the well-being of the people of the United States and of its

trading partners. The United States continues its steadfast belief that transparency is a

fundamental component of robust world trade.

2. An ambitious and balanced Doha Round as a means to generate economic growth

through meaningful new trade flows in agriculture, industrial goods and services

remains a top U.S. trade negotiating priority.

3. The fundamental features of U.S. trade policy -- maintenance of open, competitive

markets, compliance with WTO obligations, and leadership in the multilateral trading

system -- remain unchanged despite new challenges presented by a dynamic, global

economy.

4. In 2009, President Obama set a goal of doubling U.S. exports in the subsequent five

years an increase that will support 2 million additional jobs in the United States.

The new National Export Initiative is part of the Administration's focus on spurring

economic growth and putting Americans back to work.

5. a trade policy focused on the largest opportunities for increasing American exports

and jobs, on opening markets and boosting innovation, and based on the principles ofa rules-based global trading system can contribute powerfully to the goal of

8/7/2019 IND USA

9/11

sustainable economic growth that provides the benefits of trade at home while also

advancing global recovery. The United States has created an extensive series of

bilateral and regional trade and investment agreements. In 2009, the United States

also issued a notification of its intention to begin negotiations with seven partner

countries (Australia, Brunei, Chile, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and Vietnam) forthe Trans-Pacific Partnership.

6. During the most severe recession since the 1930s, the United States maintained its

commitment to international trade obligations and avoided further aggravating

economic difficulties that would have been intensified by trade restrictive reactions.

Even so, U.S. and global trade contracted sharply beginning in mid-2008, with

recovery beginning only in early 2009.

7. With 95 per cent of the world's population living outside our borders, the United

States remains committed to the integrity of existing trade agreements and to the

negotiation of additional trade agreements, both multilateral and bilateral, that open

markets further and create opportunities for trade, trade-related job and income

expansion for all.

8. . As of 2008, exports supported over 10 million jobs in the United States alone,

including one in four in the manufacturing sector. Imports from U.S. trade partners

have also helped expand our purchasing power, widen choices for American

consumers, and provide valuable inputs into U.S. production.

9. The United States maintains one of the world's most open trade regimes, with the

current U.S. simple average tariff at 3.5 per cent on a legally bound basis under the

WTO. When GSP and other preferences are taken into account, the U.S.

trade-weighted average tariff is under 1.4 per cent on an applied basis.

10. In 2009, 70 per cent of all U.S. imports (including under preference programs)

entered the United States duty free. U.S. service markets are open to foreign

providers and U.S. regulatory processes are transparent and accessible to the public.

India US Trade relations:

1. India's relations with USA have grown since the economic restoration. Trade relation

between these two countries is the significant aspect of the global and strategic

partnership existing between them.

2. Over the longer term of ten years, India and the US can become much more

significant economic partners.Considering that India, a country with a GDP of around$1 trillion, accounts for a mere 1.3% of US trade, there is substantial potential to

increase bilateral trade.

8/7/2019 IND USA

10/11

3. The major export items from India to the United States include fish, seafood, precious

stones, textile products, Apparels, Metals, Machinery, Organic Chemicals, Iron and

steel products.

4. The major import items to India from the United States include Medical and surgical

equipments, Computer and computer parts, gas turbines, telecom, electrical

machinery, plastic, cotton, wooden pulp.

5. The Next Steps in Strategic Partnership provides a more transparent U.S. licensing

arrangements for Indian imports of sensitive items and technology. This in turn have

lead to an enhancement in the high-tech trade between the two countries.

6. The India US Trade Relations was further boosted with the conclusion of an Open

Skies Agreement between the two nations in the year 2005. This agreement is

supposed to increase the air connectivity between the two countries, thereby

improving the commercial and trade relations.

7. Outsourcing of knowledge work to India by the US based companies is a significant

feature of the India US Trade Relations as producing goods and services in India

makes them cheaper in the US.

8. The India US Trade Relations is also characterized by the inter-dependence in terms

of financial markets as US institutional investors are increasingly investing in India

and on the other hand Indian multinational corporations are going on buying

companies in the US and establishing operations in the US.

9. Areas like infrastructure, IT, Telecom sector, energy and other knowledge industries

such as pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, are the favorite areas for economic

cooperation between India and the US. Some of the major multi national corporations

of USA doing a profitable business in India are- General Electric, Whirlpool Ford

(India), 3M, Tecumseh Products (India) Limited, Pepsi, Proctor and Gamble (India),

Microsoft, Intel, and IBM Corporation.
