Recomposition sécuritaire et défense européenne
Paris renforce sa doctrine de dissuasion: hausse annoncée des têtes nucléaires (≈290 aujourd’hui) et coopération avec 7–8 partenaires européens, incluant exercices et éventuel déploiement de Rafale. Impacts: budgets défense, commandes industrielles, exigences de conformité export/ITAR-like.
Energy supply shock and LNG
Israel’s force-majeure halt cut about 1.1 bcf/d of gas flows. Egypt, consuming ~6.2 bcf/d versus ~4.1 bcf/d output, leased ~2 bcf/d FSRU capacity and plans ~75 LNG cargoes, raising power-price and industrial curtailment risks.
USMCA review and North America frictions
USMCA’s 2026 review is becoming a leverage point for tighter rules of origin, anti-transshipment measures, and possible sectoral tariffs on autos, metals, and more. Firms using integrated US-Canada-Mexico supply chains face compliance, sourcing, and investment-hold risks.
Doctrine “Made in Europe”
La nouvelle doctrine européenne de “préférence européenne” conditionne aides et marchés publics à des contenus produits en Europe (ex. 70% composants VE). Elle reconfigure sourcing, localisation industrielle, M&A et accès aux subventions pour acteurs extra-UE.
BOJ tightening and yen volatility
Bank of Japan policy normalization is driving sharp USD/JPY swings and periodic intervention risk near 160. Higher rates lift funding costs, reprice real estate and equities, and alter hedging, pricing, and procurement strategies for importers and exporters.
Energy infrastructure and export chokepoints
Iran’s exports remain concentrated at Kharg Island, while the Jask terminal offers limited bypass capacity but slower loading. Strikes, sabotage, or operational constraints can quickly reduce throughput, amplifying volatility in regional petrochemicals, shipping availability, and upstream service demand.
