EU position in world trade
The EU is in prime position when it comes to global trade. The openness of our trade regime has meant that the EU is the biggest player on the global trading scene and remains a good region to do business with. The EU has achieved a strong position by acting together with one voice on the global stage, rather than with 28 separate trade strategies. The EU is an attractive market to do business with: § We have 500 million consumers looking for quality goods § We are the world's largest single market with transparent rules and regulations § We have a secure legal investment framework that is amongst the most open in the world § We are the most open market to developing countries in the world Europe has become deeply integrated into global markets. Thanks to the ease of modern transport and communications, it is now easier to produce, buy and sell goods around the world which gives European companies of every size the potential to trade outside Europe.
