The World Trade Organization (WTO) is conducting a Trade Policy Review for Malawi. This review process involves an independent report by the WTO Secretariat and a policy statement from the Malawian government. Both documents will be discussed by the WTO's full membership in the Trade Policy Review Body (TPRB).
Trade Policy Reviews are mandated exercises under WTO agreements, aiming to examine and evaluate member countries' trade and related policies at regular intervals. These reviews also monitor significant developments that could impact the global trading system. All WTO members undergo this review, with its frequency depending on the size of each country.
