Connecting New Zealand Business to the Asia-Pacific

ABAC Members provide advice to APEC Leaders, Ministers and officials on key issues of concern to the region’s business community, helping to shape current and future policy directions.  They engage in a unique annual Dialogue with Leaders to present their recommendations.

ABAC New Zealand members play a leading role across a range of important issues in ABAC, ranging from the WTO, open markets and tackling trade barriers, to creating an enabling environment for digital trade, economic participation by women and Indigenous entrepreneurs, trade and economic issues in the climate response, and sustainable food production and trade. ABAC New Zealand serves as a bridge between the New Zealand business community and policymakers on many of the issues of greatest importance in our deeply interconnected region.
