Robert Lehmann, ifo economic expert, adds that &#8220;Structural differences between the federal states, such as a strong presence of the automotive industry, are decisive.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The study considered several scenarios, with three different questions:&nbsp;What happens if the current tariff policy is continued? What effect do product-specific tariffs have? What would the \u201creciprocal\u201d tariffs of up to 50% on all imported goods threatened by US President Donald Trump mean?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Depending on the scenario, the federal states of Saarland, Lower Saxony, and Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg, where the automotive industry is the leading sector, would see the industrial value added shrink by between 1.7 and 3.0 percent. In all&nbsp;scenarios, the city-state of Hamburg would be the least affected. In the most favorable scenario, the city-state could even benefit from product-specific tariffs. &#8220;Hamburg\u2019s industrial focus on other vehicle construction, which includes shipbuilding, could offset the negative customs effects of the other industries,&#8221; Thum said.&nbsp;The decisive factor will be which tariff policy the US government pursues after the 90-day break in negotiations.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The city-state of Hamburg could even benefit from tariffs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7207,"featured_media":235916,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"format":"standard","override":[{"template":"1","parallax":"1","fullscreen":"1","layout":"right-sidebar","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"top","share_float_style":"share-monocrhome","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_category":"1","show_post_reading_time":"0","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","post_calculate_word_method":"str_word_count","show_zoom_button":"0","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_prev_next_post":"1","show_popup_post":"1","number_popup_post":"1","show_author_box":"0","show_post_related":"1","show_inline_post_related":"0"}],"image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"crop-500","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-500"}],"trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","disable_ad":"0","subtitle":""},"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_override_counter":{"view_counter_number":"0","share_counter_number":"0","like_counter_number":"0","dislike_counter_number":"0"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[25705],"tags":[26267,26598,28834],"class_list":["post-431794","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-dazi-en","tag-ifo-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/431794","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7207"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=431794"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/431794\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":431795,"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/431794\/revisions\/431795"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/235916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=431794"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=431794"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eunews.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=431794"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
