| | As the SACU — EFTA arrangement can be seen as a harmonisation of the state of trade already existing with Europe, it would be difficult to imagine that this process holds any threat to SADC. | | | This is possible in the sense that trade is closely followed by investment and also that South Africa is able to improve its trade with EFTA from the export of raw and semi-processed goods to a more beneficial high value added export stance. | | | Given this position it is not surprising that EFTA would look to replicate the Trade Development and Co-operation Agreement (TDCA) concluded between the EU and South Africa. |
