Free trade agreement with MERCOSUR to provide investor protection

The deal concluded on 21 July 2022 in Paraguay.

The MERCOSUR-Singapore Free Trade Agreement (MCSFTA) will soon benefit businesses by providing investor protection, fair competition, and simple trade procedures.

This after MERCOSUR and Singapore concluded its negotiations for the trade agreement on the sidelines of MERCOSUR Summit 2022 in Paraguay.

It will also allow Singapore and MERCOSUR to have better access to each other’s markets by lowering tariff rates on traded products, enhanced market access, and opportunities for companies to enter government procurement projects.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
