Event Synopsis:
After U.S. President Trump announced steel and aluminum tariffs on several of the country’s allies in March 2018, a number of EU countries, Mexico, and Canada immediately announced retaliatory tariffs against American products. Other trade partners and allies have also stated plans to retaliate and seek remedies through the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the World Trade Organization (WTO). With the looming widespread business impact of these retaliatory actions, companies should be looking closely at their supply chain to determine risk management considerations.
In this LIVE Webcast, a panel of key thought leaders organized by The Knowledge Group will provide an overview to help the audience understand the critical elements of U.S. allies’ retaliatory tariffs and their potential effects on businesses across industries. Speakers will also discuss latest updates; critical issues and best risk management practices concerning the current trade war between the U.S. and its allies.
Key topics include:
• Trump's Tariffs: An Overview
• Retaliatory Tariffs: Legal and Business Implications
• Industry Reactions
