Problem

Distortion of international trade by dumping

Nature:

International trade may be distorted when an enterprise effectively reduces the foreign price of its product below that of the domestic price, where any such difference is not due to actual differences in the cost of selling, production, or transportation. The price reduction may be disguised by quality differentials, spurious quantity discounts, or favourable credit terms. Governments may support such forms of export through special export subsidies, tax rebates, or other special concessions.
