US Exports to China Expected to Grow by 9% a Year to 2030
Over the longer term, the trade forecast shows global economic growth to be strongest amongst the economies of East and South Asia. Two-way trade flows between the U.S. and Asia are expected to grow in importance relative to slower growing but more established trade ties with industrialized economies. US exports to China are expected to grow by nine percent a year on average in the decade to 2030, so that by the end of this period China will have surpassed Mexico as the second largest market for US exporters.
“Increased trade with Asia, particularly China, represents a major business opportunity for US businesses,” said HSBC’s Huh. “And with the recent IMF decision to include China’s currency in its SDR basket, US companies may want to consider how to make renminbi part of their business strategy."

Global Sourcing Spotlight: Don’t Be Afraid of Global Sourcing
04/03/2024 | Bob Duke -- Column: Global Sourcing SpotlightOn paper, it doesn’t seem like a great time for global sourcing. With several world conflicts, it may seem impossible to think that something like global sourcing and commercial trade between countries could begin to alleviate this tension between warring countries.
