    The World Trade Organization's (WTO) Ninth Ministerial Conference (MC9) is being held in Bali, Indonesia from 3-6 December 2013.

    A successful outcome of the upcoming Conference is deemed crucially important for the future of the multilateral trading system, given the impasse in the Doha Round of negotiations. A multilateral Trade Facilitation Agreement is under negotiations, and – if agreed – could offer tangible benefits to small businesses in developing countries. Other issues on the agenda relate to agricultural production and food security as well as the recognition of special needs of least developed countries (LDCs).
