Trade overview

Bermuda is a British Overseas Territory in the North Atlantic and a major international financial and insurance center with close economic ties to the United States. Trade in goods between the US and Bermuda is relatively limited, with the US primarily exporting food, machinery, and consumer goods to the island. Bermuda does not have a free trade agreement with the US, and its economy is dominated by financial services, reinsurance, and tourism rather than goods manufacturing.
