Will Iran war reshape global trade more than COVID?
Trade experts are evaluating whether the simmering Iran war— which has disrupted the Strait of Hormuz, leading to major energy supply losses, shipping reroutes around the Cape of Good Hope, and soaring war-risk insurance premiums— will reshape global supply chains more profoundly than the COVID-19 pandemic. Companies are increasingly adopting risk-mitigation strategies like reshoring, nearshoring, and shifting from just-in-time to just-in-case inventory management, with geopolitical risks now the top concern for two-thirds of surveyed firms.
