Report summary
Asia’s economies are intimately linked to global maritime trade yet highly susceptible to disruptions on key routes. The smooth and timely flow of goods remains dependent on a small number of narrow, congested and strategically vulnerable pinch points, as the nearly week-long blockage of the Suez Canal has highlighted. Even with traffic through the canal resuming, will there be any ongoing impact on energy supplies into Asia? Will there be wider economic fallout? And what might this mean for alternative transport routes in the future?
