NEW YORK, Oct. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — GLG, the world’s insight network, today released the findings of its survey on the impact of U.S. tariff and trade policies on Asia-Pacific (APAC) businesses, which drew insights from more than 300 senior leaders at APAC firms that export to the U.S. The survey found that U.S. policies have led most respondents to expect declined financial performance for their businesses, have decreased trust in the U.S. as a trading partner, and opt to raise prices or risk loss of market share rather than absorb tariff costs.

Respondents in every country surveyed – Australia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam – said trade and tariff policy instability is the trend exerting the greatest impact on their businesses, outweighing other macro trends, like inflation, and megatrends, like AI. Across the countries surveyed, more than half of consumer goods, food, and agriculture products exporters said they had switched their market focus away from the U.S. In China specifically, over 65% of respondents across all industries surveyed said they were looking to target markets other than the U.S.
