HomeEx post evaluation of the implementation of the trade agreement between the EU and its Member States and Colombia, Peru and Ecuador
Final report : executive summary
Publication metadata
1. Since 2013, the European Union (EU) has a Trade Agreement with Colombia and Peru, which Ecuador joined in 2017. The Agreement gradually opens up markets on both sides and increases the stability and predictability of the trade and investment environment. It is also one of the first “new generation” trade agreements of the EU, characterised by its comprehensive scope that covers, in addition to liberalisation of trade in goods and services, investment, government procurement, competition, intellectual property rights, as well as trade and sustainable development issues. 2. After several years of implementation, an ex post evaluation is undertaken with the objective of analysing the economic, social and environmental, and human rights (including labour rights) impacts of the implementation of the Agreement and, ultimately, of determining whether there is a need to improve its implementation. To support the European Commission’s own evaluation of the Agreement, an evaluation study has been commissioned to a consortium led by BKP Economic Advisors. This final report provides the findings of the evaluation as well as conclusions and recommendations in Volume I, additional evidence and background information in Volume II, and a number of case studies in Volume III. Responses to the evaluation questions are presented in the separate synthesis report. The evaluation methodology was described in detail in the evaluation inception report.
