The current paper used the same methodology and objectives as the previous research paper on the identical topic with an aim to see how the trade flows of Kazakhstan has been changed in terms of volume to corresponding exporting and importing partner. However, the major differences between two studies are seen in different commodity composition, trade partners (EC was added), and in analyzing larger time series. So, the contributions of the current thesis consist of recalculating the trade effect for 2010 and 2011, as well as updating the influence of CU on trade of Kazakhstan for 2012 and 2013.
