Potential Western Responses: Local Production, Partnerships, and New Markets

With the US and China having agreed to a détente over trade, now is a good time to take a step back from the day-to-day back-and-forth of measures and countermeasure, and look at the longer term implications of China’s new economic model for trade.

In this podcast, Trivium Co-founder Andrew Polk and Dinny McMahon, Head of Markets Research, kick off by discussing China’s surprisingly bleak October economic data, before wading into big picture trade issues.

They discuss:

• How China intends to maintain export growth in the face of rising trade tensions
• Whether the world is facing a China Shock 2.0, and how it will differ from the first China Shock
• And how countries might adapt to expanding exports of Chinese advanced manufactured goods
