Why UPS supports TTIP?
Trade Facilitation
 Modernized & Efficient Customs processes
 Exemption from duties for low value shipments, immediate release, single window to submit data
 Individual customers benefit
 More choice, lower cost and simplified trade terms
 SMEs (small & medium sized enterprises) benefit
 Less “red tape” @ borders & regulatory coherence makes international trade more accessible
 Economic & Employment boost
 More goods move to more places. Transporters need more people to move them
Why mention Small & Medium sized enterprises?
 SMEs account for 60-70% of employment in most OECD countries
 SMEs account for (Private sector) 85% of jobs in EU. 64% in USA
BUT
 60% of US exporting SMEs export to only 1 country
 75% of EU exporting SMEs export to only other EU countries
Why?
International trading landscape is not accommodating to smaller or less-resourced SMEs
▼
Lack of understanding of different regulatory standards and licensing procedures
▼
Lengthy & costly procedures for moving goods between the EU & US

TTIP is also about People
UPS employs 395,000 people globally
22 packages per day (which cross a border) support 1 more job at UPS
TTIP is also about People
A comprehensive TTIP could
annually boost UPS volume
by 13 million packages and
support UPS 2400 jobs
Today, UPS moves 2% of Global GDP around 220+ countries & territories
With TTIP  EU/US Trade becomes easier
▼
More goods for sale. More choice for consumers
▼
More goods move
WEF estimates that reducing supply chain barriers to trade could increase
global GDP by nearly 5% and trade by nearly 15%
