Access to the Tariff Impact Report, an online web application, is limited to those who complete the survey at the link above.

Since 2018 the United States has increased tariffs on some 12,000 products covering over $300 billion (12.6%) of annual imports, most of which are directed at China. The average tariff level has increased from 2.6% in 2017 to well over 17%. These new tariffs increase prices that U.S. businesses and consumers pay for foreign products while decreasing competiton for domestic producers of these goods.

To find out how your company and industry might be affected by the escalating trade war, please take a short 5-minute survey. We have developed an online web application, the Tariff Impact Report, that we will send you if complete the survey. We look forward to hearing from you!
