Climate Change: Why knowing your supply chain is important
December 2021
COVID-19 has demonstrated the fragility of supply chains. Globalisation has seen supply chains become longer and longer, and reach the furthest corners of the world economy. Knowing where your supply chain goes is of increasing importance to not only help guard against risk, but also for companies to see the composition of their environmental footprint, and potentially take actions to change it.

China will likely be at the centre of a possible escalation of the trade war that already started during Trump’s first term. Domestically, China also faces lingering deflationary risks. Authorities have launched short-term policy stimulus, but demand-side reforms like improving social security nets are still lagging. India, meanwhile, with its largely domestically focused economy will likely be less impacted by the new US administration's fiscal and trade policies. Key to watch will be how strong private consumption demand will grow against a backdrop of structurally weak labour markets.
