As the 2024 US Presidential election approaches, Nomura Holdings has analysed the potential economic impacts of a Donald Trump victory.

Their report highlights several key areas where Trump's policies could influence the global economy and specifically affect India.

Impact of a Potential Donald Trump Victory on India:

Higher US Inflation: A 0.75 percentage point increase by 2025.

Larger Fiscal Deficit: Increased US fiscal deficit.

Fewer Fed Rate Cuts: Limited Federal Reserve rate reductions.

Weaker Growth: Slightly weaker US economic growth.

Implications for India:

Economic Resilience: India's domestic demand-driven economy will limit the impact of slower US growth. Lower commodity prices and reduced oil prices could benefit India.

Trade Friction: Potential trade disputes over India's trade surplus and currency policies may arise but are expected to be outweighed by gains from supply chain shifts away from China.

Immigration Policies: Tighter immigration policies under Trump could affect Indian IT workers and students.

Foreign Policy: Strong US-India ties are likely to continue, with potential benefits from eased US-Russia tensions.

Overall, Nomura believes that India could benefit from a Trump presidency, especially in terms of foreign policy and economic positioning.
