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.

Governance and tax administration overhaul

An IMF-linked tax reform plan through June 2027 targets FBR audit, IT and exemption simplification, while broader digital governance reforms expand compliance systems. Businesses should expect stronger enforcement, e-invoicing/data requirements, and changing effective tax burdens across sectors.

Macroeconomic rebound with fiscal strain

IMF projects Israel could grow about 4.8% in 2026 if the ceasefire holds, driven by delayed consumption and investment. However, war-related debt, defense spending and labor constraints pressure fiscal consolidation, influencing taxation, public procurement priorities, and sovereign risk pricing.

Stricter competition and digital rules

The CMA’s assertive posture and the UK’s digital competition regime increase scrutiny of mergers, platform conduct and data-driven markets. International acquirers should expect longer timelines, expanded remedies, and higher litigation risk, particularly in tech, media, and consumer sectors.

Cross-border payments and de-dollarization

Saudi Arabia’s participation in the mBridge multi-CBDC platform (joined 2024) supports faster cross-border settlement; reported cumulative volume exceeds ~$55bn by late-2025, with e-CNY >95% of settlement value. This may broaden currency options and compliance considerations for regional trade financing.

Rising industrial power cost squeeze

Despite reduced load-shedding, electricity tariffs for large users reportedly rose ~970% since 2007, triggering smelter closures and weaker competitiveness. Expected further annual increases amplify pressure on mining, metals and manufacturing, accelerating self-generation and relocation decisions.

Sanctions and export-control compliance

Canada’s alignment with allied sanctions—especially on Russia-related trade and finance—raises compliance burden across shipping, commodities, and dual-use goods. Businesses need robust screening, beneficial-ownership checks, and controls on re-exports via third countries to avoid enforcement exposure.

Power tariff overhaul, circular debt

IMF-backed electricity tariff restructuring shifts costs via higher fixed charges while cutting some industrial per‑unit rates; inflation could rise and consumer demand weaken. Persistent DISCO losses and circular debt create outage and cost volatility risks for manufacturers and service providers.

China engagement and investment scrutiny

Ottawa’s diversification push toward China—alongside signals of openness to Chinese SOE energy stakes—raises national-security review, reputational and sanctions-compliance risk. Businesses should expect tighter due diligence and potential policy reversals amid allied pressure.

Crypto-based payments and enforcement

Sanctions and FX scarcity are accelerating use of crypto and stablecoins for trade settlement and wealth preservation, drawing increased OFAC attention and first-time sanctions on exchanges tied to Iran. This raises AML/KYC burdens and counterparty screening complexity for fintech and traders.

Nearshoring growth meets constraints

Mexico continues attracting manufacturing and logistics investments, especially in northern and Bajío corridors, but execution risk is rising from land, permitting, utilities, and labor availability. Firms should stress-test project schedules, supplier capacity, and cross-border throughput assumptions.

Plan masivo de infraestructura y energía

El gobierno lanzó un plan 2026‑2030 de MXN 5.6 billones (≈US$323 mil millones) y ~1,500 proyectos, con energía como rubro principal. Puede mejorar logística (puertos, trenes, carreteras) y confiabilidad energética, pero exige marcos “bancables” y certidumbre contractual.

China-linked FDI rules re-evaluation

India is reviewing Press Note 3 and may add a de minimis threshold to speed small-border-country investments while retaining scrutiny for sensitive sectors. This could reopen selective China capital and supplier participation, affecting JV structuring, procurement costs, and compliance with security reviews.

Nuclear expansion and export-linked cooperation

Seoul is restarting new reactors (two 1.4GW units plus a 700MW SMR) while pursuing expanded US civil nuclear rights and fuel-cycle cooperation. This reshapes electricity price expectations, industrial siting, and opportunities for EPC, components, and uranium services.

Climate law and carbon pricing momentum

Thailand is advancing a first comprehensive Climate Change Act, with carbon-pricing and emissions-trading elements discussed in public reporting. Exporters to the EU and other low-carbon markets will face rising MRV and product-footprint demands, influencing supplier selection and capex.

مسار صندوق النقد والإصلاحات

مراجعات برنامج صندوق النقد تركز على الانضباط المالي، توسيع القاعدة الضريبية، وإدارة مخاطر المالية العامة. التقدم أو التعثر ينعكس مباشرة على ثقة المستثمرين، تدفقات العملة الأجنبية، وتوافر التمويل، مع حساسية اجتماعية قد تؤخر قرارات تحرير الأسعار والدعم.

Immigration enforcement policy volatility

Intensified immigration enforcement and politically contested oversight proposals at DHS create uncertainty for labor availability and compliance, especially in logistics, agriculture, construction, and services. Companies face higher HR/legal costs, potential workplace disruption, and relocation or automation pressures.

Indo-Pacific security reshapes logistics

AUKUS and expanded US submarine rotations at HMAS Stirling from 2027 (Australia investing ~A$5.6b plus A$8.4b nearby) heighten geopolitical risk around regional sea lanes. Shipping, insurance, and dual-use supply chains should plan for contingency routing and compliance.

Post-election policy continuity boost

Bhumjaithai’s clear election lead reduces coalition deadlock risk, supporting budget passage, infrastructure rollout and investor confidence. Near-term stability may lift portfolio inflows and SET liquidity, but structural reform pace and governance concerns still shape longer-run FDI decisions.

Logistics and customs modernization push

Indonesia continues efforts to streamline trade via the National Logistics Ecosystem and single-window integrations across agencies. Progress can reduce dwell time and compliance burden, but uneven implementation across ports and provinces still creates routing risk, delays, and higher inventory buffers.

Inestabilidad social y riesgo regulatorio

Las protestas recurrentes y respuestas de seguridad elevan el riesgo operativo: cierres de internet, restricciones a apps, mayor vigilancia y cambios normativos rápidos. Esto afecta logística urbana, continuidad de negocios, ciberseguridad y cumplimiento de datos, complicando operaciones de filiales y partners.

Supply-chain exposure to sectoral probes

Even as some broad tariffs were struck down, U.S. Section 232 investigations into additional sectors (e.g., aircraft, critical minerals, pharmaceuticals) keep Canadian exporters at risk. Companies should scenario-plan for sudden duty changes, certification requirements and localization pressures.

Tariff volatility reshapes trade flows

Ongoing on‑again, off‑again tariffs and court uncertainty (including possible Supreme Court review of IEEPA-based duties) are driving import pull‑forwards and forecast containerized import declines in early 2026, complicating pricing, customs planning, and supplier diversification decisions.

Agua y clima: riesgo transfronterizo

México se comprometió a entregar al menos 350,000 acre‑pies anuales a EE. UU. bajo el Tratado de 1944 y a pagar adeudos previos, tras amenazas arancelarias. Sequías y asignaciones industriales pueden generar paros, conflictos sociales y exposición comercial en agroindustria.

Land bridge megaproject uncertainty

The THB990bn “land bridge” under the Southern Economic Corridor aims to link Gulf and Andaman ports via rail and motorway, targeting up to 20m TEU capacity. Tendering could occur within four years, but depends on enabling legislation and financing, affecting long-term logistics and hub strategies.

Export controls and origin‑laundering scrutiny

The US–Taiwan framework emphasizes tighter critical-technology export controls, enhanced investment review, and prevention of country‑of‑origin laundering. Firms routing China-linked production through Taiwan face higher compliance burdens, licensing risk, and intensified due diligence requirements across supply chains.

Gargalos portuários e competição

Portos bateram 1,4 bi t em 2025 (+6,1%), mas Santos enfrenta risco de colapso sem expansão; o Tecon Santos 10 segue com disputas regulatórias e risco de judicialização. Atrasos elevam demurrage, perdas logísticas e confiabilidade de exportação/importação de cargas conteinerizadas.

Monetary easing amid weak growth

Bank of England is holding Bank Rate at 3.75% after a narrow 5–4 vote, but signals likely cuts from spring as inflation trends toward 2%. Shifting rate expectations affect GBP, financing costs, valuations, and hedging for UK-linked trade.

Rail connectivity and cross-border links

Saudi Railways moved 30m tonnes freight in 2025 and 14m passengers, displacing ~2m truck trips and cutting 364k tonnes emissions. New rolling-stock deals and the approved Riyadh–Doha high-speed rail deepen regional connectivity for labour, tourism, and time-sensitive cargo.

Federal shutdown and fiscal brinkmanship

Recurring U.S. fiscal standoffs are disrupting federal services and increasing macro uncertainty. A partial government shutdown began after Congress missed funding deadlines, with estimates of up to $11B GDP loss if prolonged. Impacts include delayed permits, customs/agency backlogs, contractor payment risks, and market volatility.

Energy security via LNG contracting

With gas ~60% of Thailand’s power mix and domestic supply declining, PTT, Egat, and Gulf are locking in 15-year LNG deals (e.g., 1mtpa with Cheniere; up to 0.8mtpa with Engie) to reduce spot-price exposure. This influences industrial power costs and emissions pathways.

External debt rollovers, FX buffers

Pakistan’s reliance on short-term bilateral rollovers and Chinese commercial loans keeps reserves fragile; a recent $700m repayment cut gross reserves to about $15.5bn. Tight buffers raise devaluation risk, restrict profit repatriation and disrupt import-dependent supply chains.

BOI Fast Pass investment surge

Government is accelerating roughly THB480bn of BOI-approved projects via “Fast Pass,” targeting over THB1.1tn total investment in 2026. This boosts near-term capex, industrial demand, and supplier opportunities, but increases competition for land, utilities, and skilled labor.

Regional connectivity projects at risk

Strategic infrastructure tied to Iran, such as Chabahar/INSTC routes, faces uncertainty as partners reconsider funding under U.S. pressure and expiring waivers. This threatens diversification of Eurasian supply corridors, increasing reliance on other routes and reducing redundancy for time-sensitive cargo.

Persistent US sector tariffs

Despite courts limiting emergency-tariff powers, US Section 232 duties on Canadian steel, aluminum, autos and lumber remain central frictions. Tariffs and quota-like effects are reshaping sourcing, forcing margin sharing, accelerating nearshoring, and increasing working-capital needs for Canada-US integrated manufacturers and exporters.

Industrial overcapacity and price wars

Beijing is attempting to curb destructive competition, including in autos after January sales fell 19.5% y/y. Regulatory moves against below-cost pricing may stabilize margins but can trigger abrupt policy interventions, supplier renegotiations, and compliance investigations for both domestic and JV players.
