The WTO was founded by an agreement made at the eighth multilateral GATT negotiations. Established in 1947, GATT played a leading role in the international economy, contributing to trade liberalization through several multilateral negotiations on tariff reductions and the removal of non-tariff barriers in response to changes in the world trade environment.

GATT, however, had few binding forces and was a restricted trade agreement as actual agreements were settled in a multilateral format that was only inclusive of a few GATT member nations.
Since the 1980s, advanced countries abused means of protecting trade such as antidumping measures and voluntary export restrictions in the name of protecting international balance of payments. In addition, GATT did not address the ever-increasing role of service and intellectual property in international trade.
Consequently, many experts think that the GATT system was not able to regulate the international economy effectively.

As with GATT, WTO is expected to convert the international trade system into a free competition system based on comparative advantages. Having legal binding force to some extent, this organization will require member nations to change their policy structurally.
