The Transatlantic Economy 2026 |
| |
|
Following a year of political and trade tensions between Europe and the United States, commercial ties between the two sides – the deepest and broadest between any two regions in history – have held remarkably strong. In a new study from the American Chamber of Commerce to the EU (AmCham EU) and the US Chamber of Commerce, authors Daniel Hamilton and Joseph Quinlan value the transatlantic economy at a record $9.8 trillion in 2025, up from $9.5 trillion the previous year. This figure comprises an estimated record $2.3 trillion in goods and services trade between Europe and the United States and $7.5 trillion in combined affiliate sales |

|
Despite trade’s prominence in the news agenda, the report finds that investment remains the real driver of transatlantic commerce. Sales through affiliates remained the primary way US companies served European customers and European companies served US customers. US companies sold four times more to European customers through affiliate sales ($3.9 trillion) than they did through exports. Likewise, European companies sold three times more to US customers through affiliate sales ($3.5 trillion) than they did through exports.

On Wednesday, 11 March, the United States Trade Representative launched Section 301 investigations into structural production overcapacity against a range of economies, including the European Union. We understand that this decision is part of a larger attempt to stabilise the US tariff system in the wake of the Supreme Court ruling striking down the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) tariffs.

A estabilidade política é essencial ao investimento estrangeiro. É, por isso, fundamental que Portugal tenha especial cuidado com a dimensão da estabilidade. Nesse quesito, o contexto político é hoje ambivalente: por um lado, o Presidente da República mostra-se empenhado na estabilidade; o Parlamento, por outro lado, continua altamente fragmentado. |

Changes to the workforce, demographic pressures, new business strategies, emerging technologies and the shift towards ‘skills-based’ talent strategies among other factors are leading many organisations to rethink their approaches to talent management. |
