How British business can protect themselves and profit from the changing face of global trade
The consensus on global trade – that free trade, free markets and relatively open borders are all self-evidently worth pursuing – has been shattered in recent years amid the fallout from the 2008 financial crisis and the resulting election of politicians more concerned with national interest than international cooperation. As a result, the list of risks that businesses who operate cross-border have to monitor is changing and growing so rapidly that it’s hard to keep up.
The trade dispute between the US and China threatens to disrupt supply chains across the globe. There are suggestions that Donald Trump could next turn his attention to Europe and the crucial German automotive industry in particular. And of course, we are no closer to knowing when Brexit will take place, or what form it will take – or if it will even happen at all. Meanwhile, in the longer run, ongoing advances in technology and digitalisation promise to be both extremely disruptive and potentially extremely lucrative for those who can make the most of it.
In an era where a single Tweet from a politician can push the value of global currencies higher or lower without warning, how can businesses ensure that they build resilience into their budgeting process so as to avoid their hard work being undone by unexpected shifts in the economic or regulatory environment?
In this webinar, MoneyWeek’s experts John Stepek and Dominic Frisby talk to currency specialists OFX about the current state of global trade and the risks and opportunities that lie ahead. We’ll be discussing everything from trade wars to Brexit to how a new government in the UK might affect your business plans.
