  4. Culture & values • People are Boeing's most vital asset • Non-discrimination and harassment • Freedom of association • Environment, health and safety • Work environment and compensation • Hours of work and work scheduling • Expectation for suppliers • Forced labor and child labor

  5. Trade Dispute • USA vsEurope • 1980’s Airbus obtainedallits capital from European governmenttolaunchnewaircraft. • A largeamountof Airbus subsidies havebeenchanneledtowardthedevelopmentofcommercial jets. • 1970-90 Airbus received$26 billion. • 75% ofdevelopmentcostwasprovided by European government.

  6. Competitive Advantage • Heavy discounts ranging anywhere from 10 to 35% for the Airbus customers • Airbus finances 80% directly @ 7% over a 10 year period • Boeing finances only 40% directly @ 8.5% over a 10 year period • Favored by European airline as it appears from the order book of A380 • The motive of subsidies is to displace the sale of Boeings, constituting serious prejudice to the interests of the United States

  7. $240 million for the 747-400 or 747-400ER • $250-$280 million depending on the configuration for the A380 • Airbus has a seating capacity of 800 passengers as compared to Boeing’s 450 passengers • Airbus has unfair competitive advantage using the subsidies thereby

  8. Today WTO concluded that Airbus used subsidies from France, German, Spain and Britain Airbus took market share illegally At interest rate of 15% to 16% in the early years, Airbus would have accumulated a massive level of debt WTO requested that EU help European companies without adversely affecting American Companies

  9. Conclusion • In all, both Boeing and the United States Trade Representative consider this a victory. GUILTY
