Case HBS Case Collection September 2015 (Revised July 2017) The TTIP: Bridging the Transatlantic Economy |
In 2016, the United States and the European Union struggled to reach an agreement over the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). Started in June 2013, TTIP negotiations had gone on much longer than anyone had expected. With elections coming on both sides of the Atlantic and a rising opposition in public opinion, what were the odds that such a comprehensive trade agreement would see the light? How would TTIP change the rules of world trade? Who would benefit and who would lose if an agreement were finally reached?
