Victoria Callicott, Simon Jones, and Everett Eissenstat of Squire Patton Boggs address some foreseeable impacts from the tariffs imposed by President Trump on those in the supply chain, particularly in the auto industry.
The article from Reuters discusses the legal and strategic considerations for the automotive industry in light of former President Donald Trump's potential re-election and his previous tariff policies. Trump's administration had imposed significant tariffs on imported vehicles and parts, which could be reinstated or expanded if he returns to office. This uncertainty has led automotive companies to reassess their supply chain strategies to mitigate risks associated with potential tariff hikes. Key points include the need for companies to diversify their supply sources, renegotiate contracts to include tariff-related clauses, and consider nearshoring or reshoring manufacturing operations. Legal experts suggest that businesses should prepare for increased costs, potential trade disputes, and changes in trade agreements. The article also highlights the importance of understanding the legal frameworks like the U.S. International Trade Commission's role in tariff decisions, and how companies might challenge or adapt to these through legal avenues or strategic business adjustments.
