Abstract

The so-called new-generation trade agreements, such as the CETA agreement signed by the EU and Canada, include not only the liberalization of trade in goods and the creation of a free trade area, but also many other areas, such as liberalization of the services market, including public services, mutual recognition of professional qualifications, deregulation and liberalization of financial markets, enhanced cooperation in the protection of intellectual property, and mutual investment protection. The considerations carried out in this work show that the analysis of the consequences of this type of agreements should be carried out not only at the level of the entire EU but also from the perspective of individual member states whose level of economic development and economic structures differ significantly. This is important for proper preparation for the entry into force of such an agreement, creating conditions for the full use of the opportunities arising from it and for adapting to the new market-specific situation and avoiding the greatest possible threats.
