BAB & AIG Global Trade Panel Discussion – Global Trade Outlook: Time to Redefine Free Trade?
July 8 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
11:00 am – 12:00 pm EST / 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm BST
BAB’s annual Global Trade Outlook In partnership with the AIG Global Trade Series, we will examine the topic in the context of both the US and UK.
Trade as a percentage of global GDP is continuing to rise, but conventional trade patterns are changing. Driven by security challenges and domestic interests, trade policy increasingly becomes an extension of domestically focused industrial policy, exemplified by President’s Biden worker-centric trade policy, but also former President Donald Trump’s proposal to impose a general 10% tariffs on imports. Questions arise now on if and how economic leadership and trade need to be re-imagined.
