Exports up again

The monthly trade stats out again. Some extracts:

  • at $50.6 billion 9.5% higher than a year ago
  • Balance of trade of $1.2 billion. In 2008 it was a $4.6 billion deficit
  • Exports to up 52% from a year ago, UK 11%, Singapore 14% and Taiwan 15%

We recently signed an with Taiwan. FTAs are good. We are a small trading nation. Two parties in have a of consistently opposing almost all trade agreements that improve access for NZ exporters.
