Doug McHoney (PwC’s International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Dr. Alexis Crow, Partner and Chief Economist at PwC US. Before joining PwC, Dr. Crow taught at the London School of Economics. Doug and Alexis discuss the intersection of global macroeconomics, geopolitics, and international tax policy in a shifting global landscape. They break down the impact of the Trump administration’s latest tariffs on Canada and Mexico, inflationary pressures, interest rates, and the fiscal cliff facing the US.
Doug and Alexis explore how the geopolitical climate is shaping international trade, the potential winners and losers of increased tariffs, and the broader economic implications of Trump 2.0. They also analyze regional macroeconomic trends, from China’s economic resilience and India's manufacturing rise to Europe's fiscal strategies and Latin America’s economic experiments. Lastly, they discuss how businesses—particularly multinationals—should be preparing for upcoming policy shifts and economic disruptions.
