Technical negotiations, which officially commenced in September 2014, are still underway with five rounds of negotiations having been concluded.This briefing note provides an assessment of the challenges and opportunities that Sri Lanka is likely to face in operating under an FTA with China. Potential challenges and opportunities have been identified by analysing the key features of China’s existing FTAs with other countries.
