Asia-Pacific Regional Integration
SGIC will track the negotiation progress and implementation effectiveness of regional trade agreements such as RCEP and CPTPP, analyzing their impact on the reshaping of regional value chains, industrial relocation, and investment landscape. We will also study the regional cooperation mechanisms in emerging areas such as the digital economy and trade in services, as well as the driving role of infrastructure interconnectivity in the regional integration process. At the same time, we will pay attention to how geopolitical factors constrain regional cooperation, and provide targeted policy recommendations to promote economic integration in the Asia-Pacific region.
