Executive Summary
An interim deal between the US and Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz has provided short-term relief to energy markets, but the underlying global supply chain vulnerabilities remain.
The conflict has disproportionately impacted Asian economies, leading to demand destruction, soaring fuel costs, and a looming food crisis as high diesel prices force farmers to skip planting seasons.
A clear divergence in response is visible: wealthy nations are drawing down strategic reserves and issuing subsidies, while developing countries face severe economic strain and potential instability.
The crisis reinforces a long-term, inflationary trend of governments and companies prioritizing supply chain resilience by building stockpiles and domestic capacity for critical goods.
