Expectations are high as the United States and the European Union are engaged in ambitious talks on a Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). As part of its mission to strengthen transatlantic cooperation, GMF seeks to analyze the political dynamics surrounding the negotiations, and the implications of a successful agreement for the EU, the U.S. and their partners. As such, discussions on deeper economic integration have the potential to affect transatlantic relations as a whole. GMF provides a neutral framework and platform for discussion and analysis on TTIP and its impact on transatlantic relations.
