- In preparation for today’s expected announcement of sweeping new tariffs, I’ve been exploring granular data on maritime exports of EU businesses to the US. As Brussels gears up to respond, here are some important factors to keep in mind🧵 Link to full study: tinyurl.com/5h729r8z
- The sheer scale of exposure from potential across-the-board tariff hikes: The US was EU’s top destination for goods exports in 2024. In maritime exports, that’s 1.85 million+ shipments spanning 220,000+ relationships between EU exporters and US importers.
- Role of ‘superstars’: Just the top 1% of exporters drive >60% EU’s maritime exports to US. Bottom 75% account for less than 3%. Exports are therefore highly concentrated and shocks to these top firms can have cascading effects on the economy. This is a well-documented pattern for many countries.
