This one-hour session will delve into the significant developments following the end of the 9 July pause on country-specific reciprocal IEEPA tariffs imposed by the United States. The pause, which began 10 April 2025, offered temporary relief amidst a volatile tariff landscape as well as the facilitation of trade deals between the United States and impacted countries.

As the deadline approaches, uncertainty looms over whether the pause will be extended or lifted, with potentially varied and significant impacts on companies. While trade deals between the likes of the United Kingdom and China were completed, or nearing completion, the future remains unclear for the European Union. Will a trade deal be made or will EU exporters to the United States face tariff rates of 20% or even 50%?
