Rapid growth in the e-commerce sector is driving significant shifts in the global economy.\u00a0 Nonetheless, this growth is becoming increasingly susceptible to trade tensions between China and the US.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>China holds an important role in the global supply chain for manufactured products, which accounts for 60% of the world trade.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s tariffs will thus impact e-commerce vendors across the globe that sell US products, processed in China, as they will inevitably inherit the higher costs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The tariffs have placed a strain on leading digital giant – Alibaba. In 2019 Alibaba recorded its second-slowest pace of revenue growth since 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n

Alibaba is in a much stronger position to deal with the trade war than other Chinese e-commerce companies. Southeast Asia represents a lucrative market with cheap labor and low import tariffs. Alibaba has the resources and financial ability to capitalize on this while addressing any potential technological and geo-political barriers. The company has already made e-commerce investments worth $4 billion in Lazada.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It seems, e-commerce companies that can shift to Southeast Asian markets and successfully navigate differing socio-economic complexities will emerge at the top amidst the ongoing trade war.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
