The EU and the US are involved currently in discussions of what is called the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). Up to now, there have been several attempts to assess the economic impact of the TTIP, both at the EU-wide level and for some of the EU countries. None of these studies, however, pays any attention to the potential impact of the TTIP on every EU country, which is the main aim of this paper. In a nutshell, the main findings indicate that the effects of the TTIP agreement are going to be small, albeit positive, and not equally distributed. More specifically, the most developed countries tend to be those that, potentially, will undergo a higher increase in their trade with the US, so they are more likely to reap benefits from the TTIP than the less developed countries. This being so, the TTIP will (weakly) increase cross-country disparities.RESUMEN. La UE y Estados Unidos están embarcados en conversaciones sobre lo que se llama el “Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP)”. Ha habido, hasta ahora, varios intentos de evaluar el impacto económico del TTIP, tanto a nivel europeo como para algún país en particular. Ninguno de estos estudios, sin embargo, presta atención al impacto del TTIP sobre cada país europeo, principal objetivo de este trabajo. De forma resumida, los principales resultados indican que los efectos del TTIP van a ser positivos aunque reducidos, y no van a estar distribuidos de forma equitativa. De forma más precisa, los países más desarrollados tienden a ser los que, potencialmente, experimentarán un mayor incremento en el comercio con Estados Unidos, por lo que resultarán más beneficiados que los países menos desarrollados. Siendo esto así, el TTIP incrementará (débilmente) las disparidades entre países.Universidad de HuelvaUniversidad de Cantabria20162016-01-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501NAhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_be7fb7dd8ff6fe43info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://hdl.handle.net/10902/10907Revista de economía mundial, ISSN 1576-0162, Nº 42, 2016, págs. 169-192reponame:UCrea Repositorio Abierto de la Universidad de Cantabriainstname:Universidad de Cantabria (UC)Inglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:repositorio.unican.es:10902/109072026-06-02T12:39:31Z
