If a developing country wants to become more industrialized and be economically interdependent, they must be involved in trade policies.
For example, Panama is a developing country whose economy has grown significantly
in the past year. Panama is a member of
WTO since 2007 and maintains an essentially liberal trade and investment
regime, characterized by relatively low tariffs and few non-tariff barrier.
Panama's service-oriented economy acts as an international hub for
activities such as maritime transport, distribution services, and banking. In
contrast, the production of a number of agricultural and manufactured goods
receives assistance through border protection and fiscal incentives (WTO,
2012).
As well, trade policies are methods to protect the nation from dumping
activities, subsidies and other types of trade barriers.
To conclude, developing nation must be involved in effective trade
policies in order to protect domestic productions, take advantages of developed
countries production and become economically interdependent.
