Prospects and Strategies for Northeast Asian Economies in the ‘Trump Era'

The Trump administration has led to increased uncertainty in the global economy. The growth and development of the world economy based on the post-war US-led world free trade system has led to the long-term deepening of US capital outflows. That, in turn, has led to a relative weakening of the US economy. Trump administration is likely to adopt a so-called “semi-free trade” policy that prioritizes its interests. The Northeast Asian economy depends on international trade, and it maintains a surplus balance in it. As a result, the possible threat to the Northeast Asian economy is greater than ever. This change in the international economic environment is expected to create both great challenges and new opportunities for countries in the region, like Korea, China, and Japan, as well as the companies based in them. This session will discuss the impact of the “Trump Policy” on Northeast Asian economies and companies.<BR><BR>
