Urgent problem
The IPEF is not an economic treaty but a framework for discussion towards cooperation. This framework consists of four pillars: fair and flexible trade; supply chain; clean energy, decarbonization and infrastructure; taxation and anti-corruption. Members can choose kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso join any of the four individual pillars, and from there proceed with the negotiating steps kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso come kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso a detailed agreement.
In which pillars, the supply chain issue is considered kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso be of great significance kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso the US economy in the context that the disruption of global supply chain as the result of the Covid-19 pandemic, US-China trade and Ukraine conflicts
Answering Thanh Nien in early September, a businessman who owns several health supplement production facilities in Texas (USA) said that the supply chain disruption is seriously affecting production in the country: "Typically, the plastic jars used kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso pack supplements only takes up 4-6 weeks kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso receive, but now it may delay up kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso 3 months and still no sights of the order," said the businessman. This makes production costs especially for small and medium enterprises.
The situation of high prices due kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso the affected supply is quite apparent in the US auto market. According kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso the Financial Times, since supply is lower than demand, the average car selling price in the US in August 2022 has increased more than 48.000 USD, while the price at the beginning of the year was about 46.000 USD, compared kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso 2019 only around 39.000 USD.
The state of car prices has caused car loans in US also increase. According kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso CNN, specifically in the second quarter of 2022, the average car loan of US increased kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso 40.290 USD/car, leading kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso the monthly car installment payment also increased kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso 667 USD, 15% higher compared kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso the same period in 2021.

More challenges
The disruptions is happening kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso the whole world, not just the US. In such a context, restructuring has become major US’s strategy for the domestic and global economy, especially in the semiconductor chip sector. In particular, Washington wants kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso orient the supply chain kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso limit the dependence of the global supply chain on China.
Therefore, IPEF is considered as a basis for countries, especially Southeast Asian region when there are 7 ASEAN members participating in this framework, kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso strengthen their position in the global supply chain. Responding kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso Thanh Nien, Dr. Steven Cochrane (Asia-Pacific chief economist, analysis department, Moody's financial analysis company, USA) said: "ASEAN can utilize IPEF kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso discussion roles in economic cooperation with the United States and among ASEAN members.”
Vietnam can gain many benefits with IPEF

However, Mrs. Frost also pointed out: “The disadvantage of the IPEF is that it cannot completely replace the gap when US not joining the CPTPP. The framework has not yet removed restrictions on access kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso the US market.” The failure kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso show the prospect of removing barriers kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso enter US market is also what analysts say will hinder the effectiveness of IPEF.
Not only that, Washington is also pursuing the trend of strengthening domestic supply chains, reducing dependence on foreign countries. When answering Thanh Nien, Professor Dwight Perkins, an economist from Harvard University (USA) - who is regarded as the world's leading expert on economic models of Asian countries, pointed out.: “The pandemic will negatively affect the process of economic globalization, especially for developed countries. That's because Covid-19 has made many countries realize that they have kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso re-enhance domestic production capacity kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso ensure the ability kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso self-sufficient part of the necessary products." This trend may limit the effectiveness of US cooperation with partners participating in IPEF.
Therefore, IPEF needs kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso address many challenges in order kết quả dữ liệu bongdaso have a greater impact on the restructuring of the global supply chain.
