Understanding India: Episode 6

Navigating Global Trade Dynamics: U.S. Tariffs and the Changing World Order

Introducing the fifth episode of our podcast series featuring Avanti Bhati, partner at Osborne Partners, and Shekhar Tomar, Assistant Professor, Economics and Public Policy, at the Indian School of Business (ISB). In this episode, "Navigating Global Trade Dynamics: U.S. Tariffs and the Changing World Order," our experts explore the far-reaching implications of recent U.S. tariff policies. Join us as they analyse how the global economic landscape is shifting, with a particular focus on China's evolving role and the phenomenon of product re-routing in international trade.

The discussion delves into critical questions including:

• Can the U.S. successfully restore manufacturing jobs?

• How are cultural elements influencing job markets?

Our experts also examine how various countries are responding to tariffs based on their export exposure to the U.S. market. The conversation concludes with an insightful analysis of India's strategic negotiation approach with the U.S., the potential concessions India might make in this new trade environment, and a thoughtful exploration of emerging opportunities that businesses and nations can leverage in this challenging global landscape.
