Trade deals frequently require laws to be passed. I.E The proposed EU-Canada deal requires Canada to strength copyright law. Companies want to make sure that countries had strong/favorable/similar regulation and laws depending on the industry. Another example would be cross-border financial transactions would require both parties have sufficient data protection and regulatory standards.
Other examples would be governments demanding tougher action against internet pirates.
