AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

US Forced-Labor Tariffs: The U.S. Trade Representative has proposed new Section 301 duties of 10%–12.5% on imports from 60 economies, arguing they failed to block forced-labor goods—an approach that could raise prices across supply chains. Ecuador Angle: Ecuador is explicitly named among the affected countries in the forced-labor tariff list, putting local exporters and importers on alert as the proposal moves through consultation and hearings. Diplomacy & Trade: Peru and Ecuador reaffirmed their commitment to fight organized crime and to keep working through binational mechanisms covering security, trade, investment, tourism, border infrastructure, and environmental and mining cooperation. Ecuador–Colombia Commerce: Ecuador’s tariff rollback on Colombian goods continues to shape the regional trade picture after the earlier tariff dispute. Weather Watch for Business: NASA data from the Sentinel-6 satellite shows a warm Pacific “Kelvin wave” moving toward South America, signaling an El Niño likely to follow—raising stakes for agriculture, water, and logistics. World Cup Business Pulse: FIFA’s expanded 48-team World Cup schedule is now set, with Ecuador’s match listed in the North America run-up and major fan-demand spillovers expected for travel and hospitality.
