U.S. Companies Anticipate Stability in Transatlantic Trade Relations by 2025
A recent AmCham EU survey indicates that a majority of U.S. companies operating in Europe expect stable trade relations in the coming year, reflecting a significant shift in sentiment since the introduction of new tariffs.
The survey reveals that 51% of respondents foresee stability in trade and investment, while 21% predict improvement, and only a minority anticipate decline. This optimistic outlook is attributed to the EU-U.S. trade agreement signed last year, which AmCham EU CEO Malte Lohan credits for fostering a more stable transatlantic relationship. The expiration of a 10% global tariff and the cautious reception of new U.S. tariffs by the European Commission further underscore the positive sentiment among businesses, marking a notable turnaround from previous uncertainties.
