GENEVA, Oct 31 (Reuters): The number of new anti-dumping investigations fell by nearly half in the first six months of this year, and the number of anti-dumping measures fell by one fifth, the World Trade Organisation (WTO) said yesterday.
The declines in anti-dumping investigations and measures, suggesting an easing of trade tensions globally, run counter to widespread fears of growing protectionism around the world.
The WTO said in a statement that 13 of its 151 members had initiated 49 new anti-dumping investigations in the first half of this year, a 47 per cent decline on the 92 initiations a year earlier.
