Scaling the great wall of trade barriers
Australia’s trade relationship with China has been rocky over the past year. When trade tensions first emerged, we quantified which products we saw as most vulnerable to trade barriers in China, and the data over 2021 to date have largely borne out these findings. However, Australia’s overall export performance has weathered these disruptions reasonably well, with exporters on average able to pivot into alternate markets.
