3 / 28 Executive Yuan Free Economic Pilot Zones
Introduction (1/2)
Currently major economies are aggressively
speeding up signing FTA in order to lower
trade barriers and attract investments.
Taiwan has only completed signing of 7 FTAs
so far, far less than its competitors did.
Taiwan has to respond actively and efficiently
in order to avoid marginalization under the
wave of economic liberalization.

Introduction (2/2)
Free Economic Pilot Zones (FEPZs) for
furthering Taiwan’s economic liberalization
Why does Taiwan still need special zones?
FEPZs are different from the conventional
“Export Processing Zones” or “Science Parks”
FEPZs focusing on economic deregulation and
institutional innovation.
