摘要

In a challenging time for global trade, there is growing interest in updating the international trade rule-book to better address concerns about fair competition in the global economy. In response, the OECD has built on its longstanding work measuring government support in agriculture, fossil fuels and fisheries to estimate support and related market distortions in the aluminium value chain. The text below is an excerpt from the OECD Trade Policy Paper No. 218 (published in January 2019), slightly edited, and presents some of the findings in the OECD study. The first part of this compilation was published in ALUMINIUM 3/19, pages 18-22.
