What is APEC?

The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) is a regional economic forum established in 1989 to leverage the growing interdependence of the Asia-Pacific. APEC's 21 members aim to create greater prosperity for the people of the region by promoting balanced, inclusive, sustainable, innovative and secure growth and by accelerating regional economic integration.

Since its beginning, APEC’s mission has been to support sustainable economic growth and prosperity in the Asia Pacific region. It’s worked; average incomes have more than doubled in APEC economies since 1989 and 1 billion people have been lifted out of poverty.

APEC has grown to become a dynamic engine of economic growth and one of the most important regional forums in the Asia-Pacific. Its 21 member economies are home to about 2.9 billion people and represent approximately 60 per cent of world GDP and 48 percent of world trade in 2018.

As a result of APEC’s work, growth has soared in the region, with real GDP increasing from US$19 trillion in 1989 to US$46.9 trillion in 2018. Meanwhile, the number of people in poverty has fallen from 1.4 billion in 1990 to 340 million in 2015, reducing the poverty incidence from 63.2 per cent of the population to 12.2 per cent. Nevertheless, there is more work for APEC economies to do.

Bringing the region closer together, reducing trade barriers, and smoothing out differences in regulations have boosted trade which, in turn, has led to this dramatic increase in prosperity. Average tariffs fell from 17 per cent in 1989 to 5.3 per cent in 2018. During that same time period, the APEC region’s total trade increased over seven times — outpacing the rest of the world, with two-thirds of this trade occurring between member economies.

APEC implements a wide variety of initiatives to help integrate the region’s economies and promote trade while addressing sustainability and social equity.
