Christina Lai, Kazuto Suzuki, and Wonho Yeon discuss de-risking calculations in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan.
Led by the United States, more and more countries are increasingly worried about their economic overdependence on China. From supply chain disruptions to economic coercion, the risks are becoming increasingly apparent. But for close neighbors such as Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, whose economies are closely tied to China’s, de-risking is not an easy proposition.
How important is de-risking and economic diversification to China’s Northeast Asian neighbors? What steps are they taking to do this? This webinar, recorded live on August 22, discusses de-risking calculations in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan.
