Abstract: This paper analyses the utilisation of free trade agreements (FTAs) in Brunei using trade statistics, official data of the issuance and receipt of preferential Certificates of Origin (COOs). This is supported by results driven from focus group discussion (FGD) with Bruneian business representatives. Brunei has seen steady growth in FTA utilisation, mainly focused on specific products (crude oil, liquefied natural gas, and methanol) exported by large firms. This paper proposes national and regional policy measures to further enhance the use of FTA in Brunei.
