In the trenches of the trade war: Will the Nordics get caught in the crossfire?
With a weakening currency and slowing economic growth, what is actually happening in China? Will lower rates, a weaker CNY and fiscal easing be enough to support the economy and steer China away from a hard landing? Are these policy easing a sign that China is preparing for a long trade war, OR is China about to 'blink'. For answers to all of your questions on the China Macro Economy and the Trade War and to understand how changes will impact Nordic economies and companies, make sure to get your Macro Economic "dose" for the year and don't miss out on this unique 2018 Annual Flagship China/Nordic Macro Event by Danske Bank.
The US-China trade war became reality in June when US President Donald Trump left the negotiating table and started a tit-for-tat battle with China. The trade war has unfolded in an unanticipated fashion and financial observers are split between naming who is the loosing and winning party. With no signs of deal in sight, it seems we need to buckle up for a longer period of tariff rates between US and China – rates that may very well ratchet higher over the coming year. At this event we will zoom in on the trade war and provide answers to: Why is it here? Where is it likely to go? And what it will mean for Nordic companies? We will also look at how it impacts the economic outlook for China both short term as well as the long term.
