# Export Bounty
|
||||
|
||||
## Definition
|
||||
|
||||
A government subsidy paid to exporters to encourage the sale of domestic goods in foreign markets. Under the mercantile system, export bounties were seen as a way to increase national wealth by promoting the inflow of precious metals through trade surpluses.

## Context

Smith identifies export bounties as one of the primary tools of mercantile policy, used to artificially stimulate exports beyond what would occur naturally in free markets. He implies these are misguided interventions that distort natural trade patterns without creating real wealth.
