The US-China relation has been in turmoil as of recent. The trade war gave way to the US-China Phase One Trade Deal which has helped accelerate some opening in the financial services sector. However, as the relationship is further subjected to a lot of strain, doubts remain in the horizon about what fruits will bear this tension and what impact will the financial services sector take. This event tries to tackle this and much more, explaining in detail possible scenarios that we need to consider and be ready for. To present a detailed picture of the situation we will count with the expertise of Michael Hirson who leads Eurasia's Group's coverage of China.

2020 was meant to be a "special" year for EU-China relations, with a raft of high-level meetings and summits on the agenda and a major investment agreement near completion, but this was before the world was engulfed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic, a high level of tensions: strategic, economic, political... are growing day after day. "These tensions are not conducive to the cooperative spirit that we need today in order to mitigate the consequences of the pandemic and prepare a global recovery," Said by Nicolas Chapuis, the European Union's ambassador to China. It is believed that as a third party, the EU's voice "is more than ever necessary" and that it could be key in providing multilateral solutions.
