Nicole Y. Lamb-Hale on the Negative Impact of Tariffs and U.S.-China Trade Tensions

Nicole Y. Lamb-Hale, Managing Director in Kroll’s Business Intelligence and Investigations practice and Duff & Phelps Institute Fellow, recently shared her views on the negative impact of U.S.-China trade tensions and how tariffs are a tax in an interview with FOX Business.

“Our clients at the Duff & Phelps Institute have told us time and time again that the rollercoaster ride we’re on is very disruptive to their long-term business planning. Tariffs are a tax,” Nicole said. “Manufacturers will shift to other countries; they’re not coming back to the U.S. They’ll move their operations to Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries where the cost of manufacturing is lower. This is corrosive to market confidence.”
