Summary
Evolving global trade dynamics are strongly influencing domestic and cross-border pricing, regulatory and tax policies in Asia-Pacific. Governments and companies are re-evaluating their strategies to navigate imminent risks and to capture future opportunities. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member countries are illustrative of these changes, given their burgeoning role in the global supply chain and the growing role of investment in these markets.
In this webinar, S&P Global Market Intelligence will discuss the economic and geopolitical implications of emerging trade risks on ASEAN and the range of strategies these markets will deploy to manage these risks.
