Lenders may turn more risk-averse and seek higher premia.<\/p>\n
Asia Pacific credit conditions are expected to be more volatile in 2025 due to uncertain trade and foreign policies by the incoming Trump presidency, reports S&P Global Ratings.<\/p>\n
Compounding obstacles could push lenders to turn more risk-averse and seek higher premia.<\/p>\n
More US tariffs against Chinese exports could slow down China\u2019s export growth driver, said Eunice Tan, head of Asia-Pacific Research at S&P Global Ratings.<\/p>\n
“A slower China and softer global trade will squeeze revenue and growth for export-centric Asia-Pacific,\u201d Tan warned.<\/p>\n
Wider tariffs and intensifying geopolitical tensions could hit energy prices and supply chains. The ability of companies to pass through costs is uneven.<\/p>\n
Countries with a large trade surplus with the U.S. (Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, and India) could be vulnerable to universal tariffs.<\/p>\n
The global trade slowdown could curb growth and the revenue of Asia-Pacific exporters, Tan warned.<\/p>\n
APAC\u2019s growth is expected to slow to 4.2% in 2025 and 4.1% in 2026.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf tariffs prompt U.S. inflation to resurge, the Fed may slow its monetary easing. Asia-Pacific central banks could keep rates high to limit outflows. A strong U.S. dollar, narrower offshore funding access, and costlier interest pose strains,\u201d Tan said.<\/p>\n
