特朗普周四晚间宣布对进口药品征收100%关税后，瑞银等投行纷纷告诉客户，这一政策的实际影响或 将微乎其微。分析师指出，由于大型制药公司已在美国投资数百亿美元建设生产设施，大多数企业可获 得关税豁免。 据央视新闻报道，当地时间9月25日，美国总统特朗普在其社交媒体"真实社交"宣布，自10月1日起，美 国将对多类进口产品实施新一轮高额关税，其中对专利及品牌药品加征100%关税。 根据特朗普在社交媒体上的表态，对"任何品牌或专利药品"的100%关税将从10月1日起生效，但正在美 国建设制药生产厂的公司可获豁免。这一豁免条款被定义为"破土动工"或"在建中"，只要开始施工就无 需缴纳关税。 周五亚洲股市因关税消息走低，亚洲制药股出现下滑。但欧洲大型制药股在特朗普隔夜宣布药品进口关 税后表现相对稳定。 市场普遍认为，鉴于主要药企已有大量美国生产布局，新关税政策的实际冲击有限。分析师预计，这一 政策更多具有象征意义，旨在推动制药业回流美国，而非真正打击进口药品贸易。据彭博经济学家分 析，受此举影响最大的国家是新加坡和瑞士。英国也有一些重要的对美制药出口——其与美国的贸易协 定提到，如果出现新的232条款关税，将考虑特殊税率 ...
