According to the Zhitong Finance APP, Morgan Stanley released a Research Report stating that, due to tariffs imposed by the USA, the efforts of OEMs in diversifying procurement and production bases have little significance, as most countries that OEMs have a large capacity in (such as Vietnam) are currently facing additional tariffs on their export products. This is expected to put pressure on the Operation of OEMs, as there is no short-term solution to transfer Orders to avoid the impact of tariffs.
The firm expects that although various countries may start actively engaging in dialogue with the US government to seek solutions to the additional tariffs, it still believes that a quantitative analysis of the financial impacts on OEMs under different scenarios is necessary. The firm found that the impact on suppliers is more manageable only when the average additional tariff is limited to below 20%, and OEMs do not have to bear tariffs exceeding 25%; OEMs with higher profit margins or low exposure to the US market are less affected compared to their peers; on the other hand, OEMs with lower profit margins and high exposure to the US market will inevitably face greater negative impacts from tariffs.
