Regional trade blocs were created to encourage partnerships between high-income developed countries, and lower-income developing countries. One such trading bloc, - the ‘CARICOM Single Market and Economy’ was established with the objective of expanding intra-regional and extra-regional trade, among other objectives as outlined in Article 6 of the Revised Treaty Establishing the Caribbean Community including the CSME.

Discuss with the use of practical examples and data to support your position.
