  • Strategic Trade Policy, Competition and Welfare: the Case of Voluntary Export Restraints Between Britain and Japan (1971–2002)

Papers are preliminary drafts, circulated to stimulate discussion and critical comment. Henley Business School is triple accredited and home to over 100 academic faculty who undertake research in a wide range of fields from ethics and finance to international business and marketing. www.henley.ac.uk/research/research- centres/the-centre-for-international-business- history © Walker, February 2015 ii © Walker, February 2015 Henley Discussion Paper Series Strategic Trade Policy, Competition and Welfare: The Case of Voluntary Export Restraints between Britain and Japan (1971–2002) Abstract We evaluate the voluntary export restraint (VER) placed on Japanese automobile exports from 1977 to 1999 by the UK. We show that the policy failed to assist the British domestic car industry. Instead, UK-based US multinationals and Japanese manufacturers were the primary beneficiaries, at a substantial cost to UK consumers. While there are a number of caveats, the policy was on balance damaging to the UK economy in welfare terms.
