2019-11-13 The Future of Global Supply Chains in the Age of Tariff’s
Event Overview:
While tariffs have long been used in international trade, developments over the last two years have had an unprecedented impact on the tightly integrated cross border supply chains that have been constructed in the last three decades.Since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the opening of China’s economy in 1979, globalization has fueled multilateral trade pacts enabling manufacturers around the world to operate globally with much lower impediments and frictions to doing business.
In today’s heated world of trade wars, globalization is said to be in retreat as manufacturers rethink supply chains and risk mitigation. Our panel of experts will assess the current situation and offer their respective views.
