Is the World Selling America? Looking forward and looking back

Join us for our latest podcast episode, where we talk about the US’s tariff war, and its impact on companies as they try to plan for their future.

Ed Kim, Corpay Cross-Border’s Regional Director for Currency Risk Management Solutions, shares his perspective around how to manage your FX when the ability to forecast is diminished, and the world seems to be “Selling America”.

The threat of a trade war sparked by tariffs has reduced companies’ abilities to forecast confidently. Businesses of all sizes and niches are finding it harder to predict what their supplies will cost, or what their status quo will be as it comes to their inventory and sales revenue.

So where do you start as it comes to sifting through the noise and determining your next move? Do you take steps to try to plan for unpredictable future volatility, or would looking back at your trading patterns to date, be a more effective way of examining your options?

Join our discussion to hear Ed’s expertise as it comes to how Treasurers and CFOs can maintain a healthy outlook as they navigate declining certainty.
