The Impact of Megaregional Trade Agreements on the European and Global Economies”? This is an emerging topic as the true megaregionals–Transpacific Partnership [TPP], Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership [RCEP], Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership [TTIP] are not yet in effect or are still in negotiation. But their impact will be very large on the global trading system, the European Union with or without Brexit, the World Trade Organzation, Asia-Pacific trading region, and the developing world
