Martin Richardson

Foreign Trade Review, 2023, vol. 58, issue 1, 38-44

Abstract: In this note I identify a simple Pareto-improving tariff reform for two countries in a free trade area, motivated by the approach in Kemp and Wan (1976), involving a move ‘towards’ a Kemp-Wan customs union. JEL Codes: F02, F13, F15
