Resumen
Descripción
The main message of this report is that
if Kazakhstan wants to take advantage of global integration
and diversification opportunities, the government needs to
improve its trade policy framework, its management, and its
regulations. It is also finalizing accession to the World
Trade Organization (WTO) while its trade strategy includes a
number of free trade agreements to be negotiated. It is an
active member of the Central Asia Region Economic
Cooperation (CAREC). This report is composed of three policy
notes that discuss how to improve the trade policy
framework, management, and regulations: note one is on the
trade policy framework and recommends joining the WTO on a
tariff schedule that is more liberal than Russia’s; note two
postulates that to benefit more fully from the WTO
membership and future regional or bilateral agreements, the
institutional framework for trade policy management will
need a clearer strategic vision, better coordination within
the government and with private sector, and enhanced human
capacity; and note three suggests that for the private
sector to benefit from global integration and
diversification, the government should ease the burden of
regulations that affect trade (non-tariff measures (NTMs)).
