CBA Economic Briefing, Frankfurt, April 2025

The day after President Trump’s “Liberation Day” couldn’t be more fitting to discuss unexplored opportunities between Germany and Australia.

At an event of German Australian Business Council on 3 April 2025, Joe Capurso, the Commonwealth Bank’s Head of International & Sustainable Economics, illustrated how the new imposed tariffs impact the US and global economies, and how this can bring about further opportunities for German Australian trade relations.

With the changing geopolitical and geo-economical landscape, decarbonisation remains a global hot topic. Australia, being the top liberal democracy in global production of metal and minerals, presents opportunities to Europe’s needs

Following the presentation, all participants continued discussions over a spot of networking in the beautiful surrounds of Villa Metzler in Frankfurt.
