Business leaders from South Korea and the United States have agreed to make stronger efforts to promote the signing of a free trade agreement (FTA) between the two countries, the Federation of Korean Industries said today. According to the business lobby group, officials from both sides of the annual Korea-US Business Council meeting, held in Seoul this week, also decided to form separate working bodies on the trade pact and step up pressure on their respective governments. Separately, business leaders at the meeting agreed to continue to push for the signing of a bilateral investment treaty (BIT).
