How open are G7 economies in practice? 🤔
The ICC Open Market Index 2026 assesses openness across goods, services, investment, digital trade and policy stability.
The findings suggest that while the G7 remains broadly open on paper, the experience for businesses is becoming increasingly uneven.
Digital services remain a clear strength and FDI frameworks are largely aligned. At the same time, rising #trade policy volatility is weighing on overall performance.
The Index also reveals notable differences across the G7. Canada shows the most balanced profile, while the United States exhibits the widest divergence across components.
If governments want to strengthen economic openness, improving policy predictability is one of the most immediate actions they can take.

The system that powers #globaltrade is being tested.
In Brussels this week, alongside @Eurochambres, we convened a high-level roundtable with Türkiye’s Minister of Trade Prof. Dr. Ömer Bolat.
European policymakers, national chambers and business leaders explored how trade can be strengthened in today’s geoeconomic environment.
"Business needs what only a functioning multilateral system can provide: transparent, predictable, and modern regulatory frameworks for global trade." @ICCSecGen
Post-MC14 discussions also reinforced a difficult reality. Delays on @wto reform and uncertainty around the e-commerce moratorium continue to weigh on the real economy.
The focus now is on building a trading system that reflects today’s realities and is resilient enough for what comes next.

⚓ Maritime incidents are down, but risks to crews remain.
The ICC International Maritime Bureau reports 16 piracy and armed robbery incidents in Q1 2026, the lowest first-quarter level since 1991.
This marks a sharp decline, driven by sustained cooperation and enforcement.
Yet threats have not disappeared. Most vessels were still boarded, with crew members taken hostage and injured.
Vigilance, timely reporting and strong coordination remain critical to protect seafarers and to keep global trade moving.
