He gave an overview of US trade and the exposure of importers under the trade policy of the Trump administration. As to be expected – an excellent and in-depth analysis, accompanied by forecasts of the 2018 midterm elections.

Greetings from Canterbury Cathedral in follow on to evensong on St. Michael Day. The ceremony was highly inspiring both because of a wonderful process as well as an inspired context. I hope that we will be able to conduct next year’s seminar on critical international business issues such as bribery, corruption, honor, and to do so in a Cathedral setting.
