Abstract

In 2004, China and Hong Kong established a free trade agreement (FTA) called the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement, intended to phase out all trade barriers to trade and investment between them. This research uses a computational general equilibrium model to evaluate the effects of the FTA on the Hong Kong and Chinese economies. The results indicate that Hong Kong improves its exports to China and gains in welfare at China's expense.
