Subscribe to enjoy similar stories. One of the more jaw-dropping policy ideas gaining political steam in the US recently has President-elect Donald Trump and his team, on taking office, actively depressing the dollar with the goal of boosting US export competitiveness and reining in the country’s trade deficit. If Trump tries, will he succeed? And what could—and probably would—go wrong? On the question of whether Trump could weaken the dollar, the answer is clearly ‘yes.’ But whether doing so would enhance the competitiveness of American exports and strengthen America’s trade balance is quite another matter.

A $200 billion target: Can Budget 2025 simplify the ‘prohibitively complicated’ e-commerce exports
e-commerce exports have seen a commendable rise. An EY-Assocham study put the country’s e-commerce exports at $4-5 billion in FY23, with a target of $200 billion by 2030. E-commerce has helped give small businesses a level playing platform to sell to a much bigger market. The business requires minimal investment and with enablers and push from global players like Amazon, eBay as well as cross-border payment platforms like Payoneer, e-commerce export is becoming a lucrative option for many MSMEs in India.
