Trumpism and Global Sourcing

"While we don't know how much of President Trump's agenda will become law, it is possible legislation could make offshoring harder, costlier, and even less popular with the public."

 

Trumpism and Global Sourcing

Globalization, a seemingly unstoppable trend until last year, suddenly looks less inexorable as President Donald Trump moves to put "America First," and the United Kingdom leaves the European Union. These abrupt policy shifts are forcing executives to rethink strategies based on global economic integration, particularly cost-efficiency initiatives that rely on outsourcing or offshoring business processes.
