Wide-Ranging Trade Issues Confront Global Businesses on Multiple Fronts

Trade is the lifeblood of the global economy, but supply chain challenges are creating concerns for business leaders in 2024 and beyond. The M&A landscape is also facing interconnected risks, with signs of optimism on the horizon in a rebounding market.

Global trade patterns are experiencing structural shifts, causing tensions and significant supply chain challenges for businesses — from geopolitical instability, trade restrictions and inflation, to climate risk, currency fluctuations and an evolving labor market.

These interconnected risks create a complex global trade environment, unsurprisingly landing as a top concern for business leaders. Meanwhile, on the financial transactions side, optimism is returning to the mergers and acquisitions (M&A) landscape after several years of limited activity. 

While the topic of trade is multifaceted and broad, there are opportunities that business leaders can pursue to make better decisions that will help organizations stay ahead of emerging dynamics now and in the future.
