<h1>World Bank Report Highlights Untapped Trade Potential in South Asia; Calls for Removing Barriers and Boosting Regional Integration.</h1> Union Minister of Commerce, Industry, and Civil Aviation launched a World Bank report highlighting untapped intra-regional trade potential in South Asia. The report, titled 'A Glass Half Full-The Promise of Regional Trade in South Asia,' was presented at a seminar in New Delhi. The Minister emphasized enhancing trade with Bangladesh, discussing a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement and establishing seven border markets. India's trade with South Asia constitutes only 3% of its global trade, with significant potential for growth. The report suggests that removing trade barriers could significantly increase trade with Pakistan and advocates for open regionalism to boost global integration.
