India and New Zealand have announced reaching a free trade agreement that is expected to boost trade between the two countries by hundreds of millions of dollars.

New Delhi and Wellington confirmed the agreement on Monday, saying the deal is expected to be formally signed in the first quarter of next year.

The announcement comes as governments across the globe seek to diversify trade links due to the uncertainty driven by United States President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs.
