Enerji arzı, LNG ve hublaşma

Türkiye LNG kapasitesini büyütüyor; Avustralya’dan ilk LNG kargosu geldi ve gazın yaklaşık yarısı LNG olarak ithal edilebilir hale geldi. Azerbaycan 2025’te Türkiye’ye 11,915 bcm gaz gönderdi. Tedarik çeşitlenmesi sanayi için güvence sağlarken fiyat oynaklığı sürüyor.

GCC connectivity and rail integration

The approved fully electric Riyadh–Doha high‑speed rail (785 km, >300 km/h) signals deeper GCC transport integration and future freight corridors. Alongside expanding domestic rail (30m tons freight in 2025), it can reshape supply-chain geography, customs coordination, and distribution footprints.

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.

PIF reset and reprioritization

The $925bn Public Investment Fund is resetting its 2026–2030 strategy, scaling back costly mega‑projects and prioritizing industry, minerals, AI, logistics and tourism. Expect shifts in procurement pipelines, partner selection, timelines, and more emphasis on attracting global asset managers.

Energy tariffs and circular debt

Power-sector reforms, including proposed tariff revisions and circular-debt containment, remain central to macro stabilization. Tariff resets can lift inflation but may reduce industrial cross-subsidies. For investors, the key risks are energy cost predictability, outages, and contract enforcement.

War-driven maritime and navigation hazards

The Black Sea operating environment remains high-risk: drone/mine threats, port strikes, and pervasive GNSS spoofing disrupt routing and safety. Attacks on tankers linked to Russian cargoes have expanded beyond the region. Shipping schedules, premiums, and contractual performance risks remain elevated.

Reconstruction, Seismic and Compliance Risk

Post‑earthquake reconstruction continues, with large public and PPP procurement and significant regulatory scrutiny. Companies face opportunities in construction materials, engineering and logistics, but must manage seismic-building codes, local permitting, anti-corruption controls and contractor capacity constraints in affected regions.

Critical minerals processing incentives

India plans incentives for lithium and nickel processing, including ~15% capex subsidies from April 2026 and capped sales-linked support, initially for four projects. This reshapes EV-battery and clean-tech sourcing, reducing China dependence but requiring partners with technology, ESG compliance, and long lead times.

Trade remedies and export barriers

Vietnam faces intensifying trade-defense actions in key markets. Example: the US imposed antidumping duties of 47.12% on Vietnamese hard empty capsules, alongside CVDs. Similar risks can spread to steel and other goods, elevating legal costs and reshaping sourcing strategies.

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.

Licenciamento e exploração de óleo

A prospecção de novas fronteiras de petróleo está estagnada: poços offshore caíram de 150 (2011) para 19 (2025), com entraves de licenciamento e foco no pré-sal. Incide sobre oferta futura, conteúdo local, investimentos de fornecedores e previsibilidade regulatória para O&G.

Souveraineté numérique et cloud

L’État pousse la migration de données sensibles vers des clouds européens (OVH, Scaleway) pour réduire la dépendance aux GAFAM. Cela influence marchés publics, choix d’hébergement et conformité (résidence des données), et crée des opportunités pour fournisseurs IT européens.

Export-led model and trade backlash

IMF warns China’s record goods surplus ($1.2T) and subsidies (~4% of GDP) create global spillovers and overcapacity concerns. Expect more anti-dumping probes, tariffs, and local-content rules targeting Chinese EVs, solar and industrial goods, complicating market access strategies.

NATO demand for simulation

Finland’s expanding NATO role—hosting a Deployable CIS Module and accelerating defence readiness—supports sustained demand for secure training, synthetic environments and mission rehearsal. This can pull in foreign primes and SMEs, while tightening cybersecurity, export-control and procurement compliance expectations.

Iran confrontation escalation overhang

Fragile US–Iran diplomacy and Israel’s demands on missiles/proxies keep conflict risk elevated. Any renewed strikes could trigger missile, cyber, or maritime retaliation affecting regional energy flows, aviation routes, investor risk appetite, and compliance screening for counterparties.

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.

Red Sea shipping and insurance costs

Red Sea insecurity continues to distort trade lanes, with heightened risk for vessels linked to Israeli ports and periodic rerouting around the Cape. Elevated war-risk premiums and longer transit times affect inventory, freight budgeting, and supplier reliability for Israel-connected supply chains.

Sanctions escalation and secondary pressure

The U.S. continues expanding and enforcing sanctions—especially targeting Russia- and Iran-linked networks and “shadow fleets”—raising secondary-sanctions exposure for non‑U.S. firms. Banks, shippers, insurers, and traders face higher due‑diligence burdens, payment disruptions, and contract frustration risk.

Energy shortages constrain industry

Winter peak demand is straining gas supply, with household/commercial usage reported around 611 million cubic meters per day, increasing rationing risk for industry. Power and feedstock interruptions can reduce output and reliability for manufacturing, mining, petrochemicals, and exporters.

Infrastructure push and budget timing

Major parties and business groups emphasize infrastructure—rail, airports, grids, water systems and data centers—as the main path to durable growth. However, government formation and budget disbursement timing can delay tenders, impacting EPC pipelines, industrial estate absorption, and logistics upgrades.

Outbound investment screening expansion

U.S. controls on outbound capital and know-how—particularly toward China-linked advanced tech—are widening. Multinationals must map covered transactions, restructure joint ventures, and adjust funding routes to avoid penalties, potentially slowing cross-border R&D, venture investment, and supply-chain partnerships in dual-use sectors.

Sanctions enforcement tightening and incentives

OFSI is reforming enforcement with a case‑assessment matrix, public penalties, and higher potential maxima (proposed £2m or 100% of breach value). Discounts up to 30% for voluntary disclosure/cooperation and cumulative reductions encourage faster reporting, raising compliance burdens for banks and traders.

Vision 2030 spending recalibration

PIF is resetting its 2026–2030 strategy toward industry, minerals, AI and tourism while re-scoping mega-projects like NEOM’s The Line amid fiscal pressure from lower oil prices. Investors should expect shifting procurement pipelines, timelines and counterparties across giga-project supply chains.

AB ve üçüncü ülke ticaret önlemleri

AB’nin çelikte kota ve korumacı önlemleri sıkılaşıyor; 1 Haziran’da ürün bazında %50’ye varan kotaların ihracatta yaklaşık 3 milyar $ kayıp yaratabileceği öngörülüyor. İhracatçılar yakın pazarlara yöneliyor. Ticaret sapması riski, sözleşme ve pazar stratejilerini yeniden şekillendiriyor.

Nickel governance and reporting gaps

Regulators disclosed a major Chinese-linked nickel smelter failed to submit mandatory investment activity reports, weakening oversight of capital, production, taxes, and environmental compliance. This heightens governance and ESG due-diligence needs for counterparties in Indonesia’s nickel downstreaming ecosystem.

Shipping volatility around China routes

Container rates are weakening despite capacity management; heavy blank sailings and shifting Red Sea/Suez routing decisions create schedule unreliability. China exporters and importers face longer lead times, inventory buffering needs, and renegotiation pressure in 2026 freight contracts.

BRICS e pagamentos em moedas locais

Brasil e Rússia defendem maior uso de moedas nacionais e instrumentos de pagamento no âmbito BRICS, criticando sanções unilaterais. Se avançar, pode reduzir custos de liquidação e risco de dólar em alguns corredores, mas aumenta complexidade de compliance e risco geopolítico.

Semiconductor tariffs and reshoring push

A new 25% tariff on certain advanced semiconductors, alongside ongoing incentives for domestic capacity, is reshaping electronics and AI hardware economics. Firms face higher input costs near-term, while medium-term investment flows shift toward U.S. fabs amid persistent dependence on foreign suppliers.

IMF program drives policy shocks

Upcoming IMF reviews under the $7bn EFF are shaping budgets, tariffs and tax measures, tightening compliance pressure. Policy reversals, new levies and subsidy cuts can rapidly change input costs, cash-flow planning, and market access conditions for foreign firms.

Environmental licensing and ESG exposure

Congressional disputes over environmental licensing reforms and tighter deforestation scrutiny are increasing permitting uncertainty for infrastructure, mining and agribusiness. Exporters face rising compliance demands—especially linked to deforestation-free requirements—raising audit, traceability and contract-risk costs across supply chains.

Risco fiscal e trajetória da dívida

Gastos federais cresceram 3,37% acima do teto real de 2,5% em 2025 e o déficit primário ficou em 0,43% do PIB; a dívida bruta chegou a 78,7% do PIB, elevando risco-país, câmbio e custo de capital.

Automotive industrial policy and import surge

The auto sector—critical to exports—faces deindustrialisation pressure from low-cost imports and slow EV policy execution. Chinese models are ~22% of vehicle imports; local production stagnates below ~640k units/year and component firms are closing, driving tariff and anti-dumping debates.

Policy execution and compliance environment

India continues “trust-based” tax and customs process reforms, including integrated systems and reduced litigation measures, while maintaining tighter enforcement in strategic sectors. Multinationals should expect improved digitalized compliance but uneven on-ground implementation across states and agencies.

Border infrastructure leverage risk

U.S. threats to restrict the Canada-funded Gordie Howe Detroit–Windsor bridge highlight how critical crossings can become bargaining chips. With Detroit handling about US$126B in truck trade value, any disruption could delay just-in-time supply chains and raise logistics costs.

Canada–China trade recalibration

Ottawa is cautiously deepening China ties via sectoral deals, including canola concessions and limited EV access, to diversify exports. This invites U.S. political backlash and potential tariff escalation, complicating market-entry, compliance, and reputational risk management for multinationals.

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.
