·The Hindu·Impact 2/5 · Moderate

Citi, a global financial services company, has expressed concern over the possibility of additional tariffs being imposed by the U.S. government. This concern is likely due to the potential impact on global trade and the economy, as tariffs can increase costs for businesses and consumers, leading to higher prices and reduced economic growth. The imposition of additional tariffs could also lead to retaliatory measures from other countries, exacerbating trade tensions and potentially destabilizing financial markets.
