The TPPA developed from an initial trade agreement between four nations known as the P4: Singapore, New Zealand, Brunei and Chile. It was a trade deal only. In 2008, P4 set out to negotiate the inclusion of investment and financial services and asked the United States to join. The US accepted and brought along Australia, Malaysia, Peru and Vietnam to the table. It is the only trade deal the Obama administration is pursuing.
