WTO | Subsidies and Countervailing Measures - Gateway subsidies and countervailing measures Subsidies and countervailing measures The WTO Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures disciplines the use of subsidies, and it regulates the actions countries can take to counter the effects of subsidies.
