The Japan-Spain Business Circle (CEJE) has initiated a series of meetings\/lunches with personalities from different fields, to discuss current, interesting and important topics for both business and personal development.<\/p>\n

At this lunch held on Wednesday 14 May at the C\u00edrculo Ecuestre, members had the opportunity to meet and talk with the director of economic analysis of the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, Carme Poveda, who shared her views on the current economic situation and the challenges posed by the tariff policy of the United States.<\/p>\n

During her speech, Carme Poveda warned of the increase in global uncertainty, which is making economic forecasts difficult. In this context, US tariff policy is presented as a \u2018new black swan\u2019 for the economy, whose impact is limited in general terms, but is concentrated in specific sectors, companies and territories.<\/p>\n

Poveda also highlighted the resilience of the Catalan and Spanish economies, driven by the dynamism of employment, private consumption and sectors such as tourism and construction. Despite the challenges, he stressed that companies are well positioned to adapt thanks to their financial strength and capacity to react.<\/p>\n

La comida concluy\u00f3 con un coloquio entre los socios asistentes, quienes valoraron positivamente el an\u00e1lisis de Carme Poveda y la oportunidad de compartir impresiones sobre la evoluci\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica global y su impacto en los negocios.<\/p>\n
