The COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating effect on the global economy. But even prior to the pandemic, international trade had slowed due to a backlash against globalization.
As the single biggest beneficiary from trade and investment, the Asia-Pacific region stands to lose the most if its economies cannot rebound from this crisis.
Experts will consider the future of supply chains and trade in Asia:
- Are Asia’s supply chains nimble and resilient enough to overcome geopolitical shocks, such as the US-China trade war?
- How should policymakers respond to geopolitical challenges caused by shifting global trade patterns?
- What do regional initiatives such as the CPTPP and RCEP mean for the future of Asia-Pacific trade?
This webinar is part of our event series Asia-Pacific in a Dynamic World, held in partnership with AIG.
