- Over the last five years, international trade supply chains have undergone significant transformations due to geopolitical tensions, technological advancements and changing consumer expectations. These forces are driving a broader transformation toward supply chains that are more resilient, transparent and sustainable.
- The Federated Hermes Trade Finance Strategy has continued to demonstrate strong resilience amid tariff fluctuations. By prioritising trade loans tied to essential goods that may be less susceptible to tariffs – and maintaining a diversified approach across not only trade directions but supply chain structures as well, we believe we have sheltered the majority of our portfolio from high tariffs.
- The remaining is concentrated in sectors with the flexibility to pivot sourcing strategies if needed, potentially ensuring minimal disruption. By staying agile and forward-looking, we continue to navigate the complexities of global trade with confidence – seeking to deliver uncorrelated returns and opportunity for our clients in an unpredictable world.
