Episode 3: Trade disruptions and the future of globalisation

  • Summary

  • Fact No 1: no one really predicted the recovery to come with supply disruptions and bottlenecks.

    Fact Number 2: there is a consensus that supply-chain disruptions are transitory. But what caused these bottlenecks in the first place? And what happens to the recovery if these disruptions persist longer than expected?

    Could the pandemic and the recovery signal the end of globalisation as we know it?
