Abstract
⺠I analyse the impacts of increased U.S. market access on poverty in Vietnam. ⺠The 2001 U.S.-Vietnam Bilateral Trade Agreement dramatically reduced U.S. tariffs. ⺠I examine differential impacts across Vietnamese provinces to the tariff cuts. ⺠Exposure is based on the structure of the workforce prior to the trade agreement. ⺠Poverty fell faster in provinces that experienced the largest U.S. tariff cuts.
