Kuala Lumpur (VNA) - Malaysia is set to be the biggest winner from the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CP TPP), said Moody’s.

Moody’s quoted the Peterson Institute for International Economics (PIIE) as saying that it is because real income effects of CP TPP would be the highest for the country.

The deal will provide Malaysia with export access to new markets including Canada, Peru and Mexico, benefiting palm oil, rubber and electronics exporters, Moody’s added.

For other members, it said the trade pact will boost exports and incomes and help to sustain reform efforts in a number of countries.

However, the gains from CP TPP will be smaller without US participation, it said. Moody’s cited PIIE statistics which said CP TPP will generate real income gains of 157 billion USD for member countries, compared to 465 billion USD from the original TPP. - VNA
