SAFTA and Cost of Bangladesh Tariff peaks Non-tariff measures Rules of Origin Negative lists Revenue compensation Investment corporation

SAFTA and Benefits of India Greater market access of each other’s products Attainment of more economies of scale More FDI attraction in all the countries Facilitation of joint venture as well as technology transfer Greater consumer satisfaction with low price index Better exploitation economic complementarities Infusion of dynamism and impetus to holistic economic development effort

Conclusion regional integration has the potential to promote economic development This potential can be exploited only through deeper cooperation. there are a number of challenges which restrict this region to tap its potential. concept of SAARC for regional cooperation will only be materialized when political autonomy and mutual trust will prevail. several factors combine to make a negative case for a viable free trade agreement in the short-term. reasonable case exists for the creation and gradual strengthening of SAFTA, as there are few benefits to dwelling on historical ill will economies grow and economic complementarities begin to develop, the countries of South Asia may find that SAFTA can offer a potentially significant contribution to their progress.
