Makroihtiyati kredi sıkılaştırması

BDDK ve TCMB, kredi kartı limitleri ile kredili mevduat hesaplarına büyüme sınırları getiriyor; yabancı para kredilerde limit %0,5’e indirildi. Şirketler için işletme sermayesi, tüketim talebi ve tahsilat riskleri değişebilir; tedarikçilere vade ve stok politikaları yeniden ayarlanmalı.

Auto sector reshoring pressures

Canada’s integrated auto supply chain faces U.S. tariff threats on vehicles and parts plus competitiveness challenges versus U.S. incentives and Mexico costs. Companies should reassess North American footprints, content sourcing, and contingency production, especially for EV and battery supply chains.

High rates and tight credit

With policy rates elevated (reports cite ~15%) to contain inflation, financing costs remain punitive for working capital and infrastructure projects. Prolonged tight money raises default risk in supply chains, compresses consumer demand, and widens Brazil’s risk premium for foreign investors.

Sanctions and export-control compliance

Australia’s alignment with US/UK/EU sanctions and tightening controls on sensitive technologies and dual-use goods raise compliance burden for multinational supply chains. Screening of counterparties, end-use verification and licensing timelines can affect shipping schedules and deal execution.

Secondary tariffs and sanctions extraterritoriality

Washington is expanding secondary measures, including tariffs on countries trading with Iran and pressure on partners over Russia-linked commerce. This raises third-country compliance burdens, increases tracing requirements across multi-tier supply chains, and elevates retaliation and WTO-dispute risks for multinationals.

Rising electricity cost exposure

A windless cold spell drove Finnish wholesale power prices sharply higher, intensifying scrutiny of energy-hungry data centres. For immersive tech operators, energy hedging, flexible workloads and heat-reuse options become key, affecting total cost of ownership and resilience planning.

Regulatory enforcement and raids risk

China’s security-focused regulatory climate—anti-espionage, state-secrets, and data-related enforcement—raises due-diligence and operational risk for foreign firms. Expect tighter controls on information flows, heightened scrutiny of consulting, and increased need for localized compliance and document governance.

FDIC resolution and failure risk

Recent FDIC-led closures highlight persistent tail risk among smaller institutions with concentrated portfolios and weak controls. Failure events can freeze credit lines, interrupt payment processing, and complicate escrow and cash-management arrangements for foreign-owned subsidiaries operating across states.

Финансы, платежи и валютная волатильность

Ограничения на банки и альтернативные платёжные каналы усиливаются; регулятор удерживает жёсткие условия: ключевая ставка снижена до 15,5% (с сигналом дальнейших шагов), что отражает высокую инфляционную неопределённость. Для бизнеса растут FX‑риски и стоимость капитала.

Taiwan Strait gray‑zone disruption

Recent PLA activity—100+ aircraft sorties, missile firings into Taiwan’s contiguous zone, and coast‑guard involvement—supports a ‘quarantine’ coercion risk that raises insurance costs and delays shipping without open war. Supply chains should model rerouting, lead‑time buffers, and energy/port shocks.

Agua y estrés hídrico industrial

La escasez de agua en polos industriales y urbanos (ej. racionamientos en Ensenada; lluvia media ~200 mm/año) limita expansión, encarece operaciones y retrasa inversiones. Sectores intensivos en agua deben planear reutilización, permisos, y escenarios de continuidad operativa.

Sanctions tightening and compliance spillovers

EU’s proposed 20th Russia sanctions package expands maritime services bans, shadow‑fleet listings, bank designations, anti‑circumvention tools, and export/import controls. Firms operating in Ukraine must strengthen counterparty screening, shipping due diligence, and re‑export controls to avoid violations.

Transport-logistics PPP opportunity wave

The Ministry of Investment is marketing 45 transport and logistics opportunities, including PPP greenfield airports, truck stops, maritime crew zones, feeder vessels to East Africa, MRO facilities and logistics parks. This creates near-term contracting demand, but success depends on bankability, tariffs and permitting.

Maritime and insurance risk premia

Geopolitical volatility continues to reshape Asia–Europe logistics. Even as Red Sea routes partially normalize, rate swings and capacity overhang drive volatile freight pricing. China exporters and importers should plan for sudden rerouting, longer lead times, and higher war-risk insurance.

Treasury market liquidity drains

Large Treasury settlements and heavy auction calendars can pull cash onto dealer balance sheets, reducing liquidity elsewhere. Tightened repo and margin dynamics raise volatility across risk assets, complicate collateral management, and increase the chance of disruptive funding squeezes for corporates.

EEC-led FDI and re-shoring

Foreign investment is concentrating in the Eastern Economic Corridor: January 2026 permits totaled THB33.8bn (+46% y/y), with the EEC taking 43% (THB14.6bn). Focus areas include automation, contract manufacturing, EV supply chains, and services—strengthening Thailand’s role as ASEAN production base.

Trade frictions and tariff exposure

Thai growth outlook remains sensitive to U.S. tariff changes and global trade volatility, with exports expected to soften after front-loaded shipments. Firms should stress-test pricing and sourcing, diversify markets, and monitor FTA negotiations and customs enforcement changes.

Advanced chip reshoring accelerates

TSMC’s plan to mass-produce 3nm chips in Kumamoto, reportedly around US$17bn investment with added Japanese subsidies, deepens local supply. It strengthens Japan’s AI/auto ecosystems, but intensifies competition for talent, power, and water infrastructure.

Port infrastructure under sustained strikes

A concentrated wave of Russian attacks on ports and ships—Dec 2–Jan 12 made up ~10% of all such strikes since 2022—targets Ukraine’s export backbone. Damage and interruptions raise demurrage and storage costs, deter carriers, and complicate export contracting for agriculture and metals.

Energy security and LNG dependence

Taiwan’s heavy reliance on imported fuels makes LNG procurement, terminal resilience, and grid stability strategic business variables. Cross-strait disruptions could quickly constrain power supply for fabs and data centers; policy debate over new nuclear options signals potential regulatory and investment shifts.

TL oynaklığı ve sermaye akımları

IMF, 2025 Mart stresinde yabancıların yaklaşık 18 milyar $ TL varlığı sattığını, net rezervlerin 56,9 milyar $’dan 29,1 milyar $’a indiğini belirtti. Geçici piyasa kısıtları görülebilir. Hedging, nakit yönetimi ve ithalat/İhracat fiyatlaması kritik.

Steel and aluminum tariff escalation

Higher US aluminum and steel tariffs are driving record physical premiums and import dislocations, lifting costs for autos, aerospace, construction, and packaging. Firms face increased input inflation, renegotiation of supply contracts, and pressure to qualify domestic or alternative suppliers.

Semiconductor reshoring pressure and geopolitics

Washington is pushing Taiwan to expand U.S. chip capacity (discussions of shifting 40% were rejected as ‘impossible’), while Taiwan pledges up to US$250B investment. This drives multi‑site manufacturing strategies, tech‑transfer sensitivities, and customer qualification across fabs, packaging, and equipment.

Cybersecurity and data regulation tightening

Rising cyber and foreign-interference concerns are driving stricter critical-infrastructure security expectations and data-governance requirements. Multinationals should anticipate higher compliance costs, vendor-risk audits, and incident-reporting duties, influencing cloud sourcing, cross-border data flows, and M&A diligence.

US–India tariff reset framework

A new interim framework cuts US reciprocal tariffs on Indian-origin goods to 18% (from peaks near 50%) while India lowers barriers on US industrial and selected farm goods. Expect near-term export upside, but compliance, sector carve-outs and implementation timelines remain uncertain.

China export curbs on Japan

Beijing sanctioned 40 Japanese entities, restricting exports of dual-use goods to 20 and putting 20 more on a watch list. Escalation over security tensions raises supply-chain disruption risk for aerospace, electronics and automotive, plus countermeasure uncertainty.

Foreign investment scrutiny intensifies

Heightened national-security screening of capital flows—via CFIUS and Defense “FOCI” mitigation reviews—raises execution risk for cross-border M&A and minority stakes, especially in aerospace, AI, space, and dual-use sectors, potentially altering valuation, governance terms, and closing timelines.

Workforce bottlenecks in SHK trades

Skilled‑labor shortages in sanitary/heating/AC and related vocational pipelines constrain installation rates for heat pumps and network connections. For international firms, the bottleneck shifts value toward training partnerships, prefabrication, and service models—while increasing project delivery risk and warranty exposure.

Rising carbon price on heating

Germany’s national CO₂ price increased from €55 to up to €65 per tonne in 2026, lifting costs for gas and oil heating. The trajectory supports Wärmewende investments, while impacting fuel import flows, hedging strategies, and competitiveness of fossil-based heating equipment supply chains.

Semiconductor concentration and reshoring

Taiwan remains central to advanced chips, while partners push partial reshoring. Taipei rejects relocating “40%” of the chip supply chain, keeping leading‑edge R&D on-island. Firms should plan for dual footprints, IP controls, and higher capex amid ecosystem limits.

USMCA review and tariff risk

The July 1 USMCA review is clouded by Washington’s tariff-first posture and reported withdrawal talk. Even partial rollbacks remain uncertain. Expect higher compliance costs, volatile rules-of-origin, and elevated hedging needs for North American supply chains and investors.

Fiscal tightening and tax risk

War-related spending pressures and a higher deficit underpin expectations of fiscal consolidation. IMF recommendations include raising VAT and minimum income tax rates and cutting exemptions, implying higher operating costs, price pass-through challenges, and possible shifts in incentives for investment and hiring.

Rising political instability risk premium

Government reliance on decrees and recurring no-confidence motions, alongside a credible National Rally path to power, elevates policy reversal risk. Businesses face higher regulatory uncertainty across energy, migration, and industrial policy, complicating stakeholder management, permitting, and long-term contracts.

China competition drives trade sensitivity

Rapid gains by Chinese EV brands across Europe heighten sensitivity around battery and component imports, pricing, and potential defensive measures. For France-based battery projects, this raises volatility in demand forecasts, OEM sourcing strategies, and exposure to EU trade actions.

Tax, customs and clearance reforms

A FY2026/27 reform package targets simpler real-estate taxation, broader e-services, and customs tariff adjustments to support industry and curb smuggling. Authorities aim to cut customs clearance from five days to two and operate ports seven days weekly, lowering logistics costs.

Rail-border bottlenecks and gauge mismatch

Efforts to integrate Ukraine’s rail with EU networks highlight structural constraints: different track gauges require transshipment at borders, creating durable chokepoints. Any surge in exports or reconstruction imports can overwhelm terminals, extending lead times and pushing firms to diversify routing via Danube and road.
