Protectionism is on the rise and businesses with international relationships must ask themselves: are we leaving ourselves open to the risk or prepared for the opportunity?

Although an emerging issue which may ultimately benefit your business, it's important to take measure to ensure that protectionism and its implications are baked into your strategy.
