This report describes the present import barriers faced by Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in the European Union, the USA, Japan and Canada (i.e. the QUAD) and analyses which benefits the LDCs could possibly realise from duty-free and quota-free access in these markets. It also discusses how preferential trade arrangements for the LDCs should be designed to serve the interests of LDCs.
