In August this year, the Global Taiwan Institute (GTI) gathered ten analysts in Washington, DC as the “US-Taiwan Economic Relations Working Group” to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the US-Taiwan economic relationship. This article compiles thoughtful insights from the working group, which convened for a one-day workshop to outline key priorities for policy makers in both the United States and Taiwan with the goal of ensuring continued benefits from the US-Taiwan economic relationship in multiple dimensions.

The Regional Cooperation Economic Partnership (RCEP) is a major trade agreement featuring nations across the Indo-Pacific, with outsized representation from Southeast Asia. However, the RCEP has never included Taiwan. Considering Taiwan’s strong efforts to shift trade from China to Southeast Asia under the 2016 New Southbound Policy (NSP), RCEP members have few obvious economic reasons to exclude Taiwan. Rather, it is the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) economic and political influence that significantly contributes to Taiwan’s exclusion.
