Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Protectionism, WTO Reform, and AI: What's Next for African Trade
Q: If we look at the potential of WTO reform, what concrete steps would help sub-Saharan Africa benefit more from the system?
Reforms should focus on bringing development to the center, enabling more flexible decision-making beyond consensus, and improving rule effectiveness through targeted amendments that do not require universal consensus; also emphasize regional coalitions and plurilateral agreements where appropriate.
Hot Wars & Trade Wars: Resilience Under Pressure
Q: What would be the top three things decision-makers should war-game for the short to medium term?
Three plausible areas to stress-test are (1) supply chain disruptions from alternate vectors such as the Taiwan Strait and China-related tensions, (2) a significant cyber shock that could disrupt cross-border transactions and the global financial system, and (3) a material demand-side shock from higher interest rates and tighter financial conditions, all of which could ripple through economies and supply chains.
Trump, Tariffs and Trade: 100 Days and Counting
Q: In terms of the policies, what would you say is the outlook for the coming days?
We may see slightly fewer tariffs and slightly less chaotic implementation of policies, but protectionist tariffs are likely to remain as a trend going forward.
Trump, Tariffs and Trade: 100 Days and Counting
Q: How in practice are countries reacting to these reciprocal tariffs?
Countries are negotiating to get deals; smaller ones are going along with what the US demands, while China is retaliating showing it views itself as not being controlled by the US in this regard.
Trump, Tariffs and Trade: 100 Days and Counting
Q: Could you elaborate a bit on why that is? Is there, in fact, a method to all of this?
The changes described are a product of unpredictability, with various motivations that conflict with each other, making it hard to understand the intended goals of Trump's tariffs.
