Daily FT
|August 27, 2025
IN an era of shifting global trade dynamics, the CEMBA/CEMPA Alumni Association of the Open University of Sri Lanka is set to host its highly anticipated CEO Forum 2025. The timely event will focus on a critical issue for the nation's economy: “The Economic Impact of New US Tariffs.”
-
The forum is scheduled to take place on 2 September at 4.00 p.m in the CETMe Auditorium, The Open University of Sri Lanka (OUSL), Nawala, Nugegoda.
This pivotal discussion aims to dissect the potential ripple effects of new US trade policies on Sri Lanka's key export sectors, supply chains, and overall economic stability. With US being a primary market for Sri Lankan goods, particularly apparel, rubber products, and tea, any changes in tariff structures could have significant and far-reaching consequences for local industries, foreign exchange earnings, and employment.
