What’s next for the CPTPP?

The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) entered the spotlight in 2021, after a series of high-profile membership applications to the mega free-trade agreement. This inclination towards trade liberalisation will persist in 2022 despite intensifying frictions between the US and China, with geopolitical developments being a key driver of negotiations.
