How exposed is the UK to Trump’s tariff chaos?

The warning of a global recession has intensified as the trade war gets hot.

By Wednesday night, the main Animus appears between the US and China Sometimes growing tariffs on each other,

For most other countries, Donald Trump has stance to implement high taxes on US imports for 90 days.

This means that those countries will now face less levy of 10% – Trump put up the same level in Britain when he made his initial announcement last week.

Britain appeared near Get lightly compared to other economies,

However, British exporters still face an additional fee on goods sold in the US and there are many other ways that will be affected by UK, from development to inflation.

The exact effect is very uncertain. But some emerging results may have an upside -up – and why it is here.

The most directly exposed people in the UK for this trade war are British businesses – from carmaker to food producers – selling goods in America.

The American importers who buy their products make 10% more pay, they face a dilemma of whether to squeeze profits, share pain in the supply chain or hope that customers will be ready to pay high prices.

They already make a dent for their sale from tariffs, threatening jobs and investment plans. Other companies can also be squeezed by more competition, if cheap imports of other countries are converted into Britain – China makes one -third of global goods.

And the complications of the global supply chains means that the UK business will notice the impact of tariffs in other countries.

The shock for growth through trade will be less marked than elsewhere in the UK, as Britain sells to America.

The UK has two -thirds British export services – the choice of banking, insurance and advertising – which are not subject to tariffs. The success of the UK in the region makes it a special area in its business portfolio.

But that strength can also be a weakness.

The export of some services is linked to goods; After sales after -sales services or marketing. The demand of those people may be affected by tariffs in America.

If demand is afflicted from other countries, the sale of exports of services may be affected elsewhere.

The advertising industry is already shocking because spending on their services often suffers first when there is a budget cut.

And this business success can be a vulnerability.

The Bank of England notes that the size of the UK export sector compared to the economy, and its financial sector means that it can be susceptible to the risk to financial stability from weak global development.

It is for all these reasons that Chancellor REWS is warning that the growth in the UK will be a hit, even though we are now on a level playground with other countries in terms of 10% tariffs.

This is worrying, not only for homes and businesses, but also for the Chancellor’s own amount – weak growth puts more stress on public finance.

This is why speculation has been speculated that we can see that more tax growth can come in the autumn budget, if it sticks to its fiscal rules.

Reducing that dilemma – potentially – there are movements in bond markets.

Those people are usually seen as a safe investment at the time of conflict, but are indicated by heavy selling, which can lead to high lending costs for governments.

And there is no good news for investors in the UK, affected by the increased risk of wild swings, increased global recession in stock markets around the world.

When share prices fall, they reduce the price of products such as ISAS and pension funds.

But as experienced analysts take care that those types of funds are long -term. In investment value, swings become smooth over time-and most people are not drawing with such funds day by day. Overall, the houses here are in touch with the stock market directly compared to the people of America.

There may be a silver lining for market instability.

Prices of oil and goods such as copper and sugar are falling.

This can be well for low inflation because the countries struggling to sell in the US can cause cheap goods.

Against the background of weak growth, investors are speculating that Bank of England may cut interest rates four times this year, with possible relief for millions of homes.

Bank of England has noted that, in any case, British houses are kept well for the storm season; Our loan relative to our income is at its lowest level since 2001.

In addition, the banking system, bank judges are well placed to absorb shocks; The 2008 financial crisis has tilted with lessons.

So in a temporary world, Britain is likely to suffer from growth because we get stuck in crosswind. However, there may still be an odd bright place to look out.
