Bilateral Clearing Agreement

Bilateral Clearing Agreement

An agreement in which two governments agree to allow trade between them up to a certain value for a given period of time. A bilateral clearing agreement limits the amount of trade that can take place under its terms; for that reason, it is considered inefficient by advocates of free trade.
