A new bilateral pact between Singapore and New Zealand promises uninterrupted access to critical supplies – even in times of war, pandemics or global shocks. It’s the first agreement of its kind, designed to lock in supply chain resilience through legally binding commitments. Andrea Heng and Hairianto Diman look at how solid this safety net is when national interests collide and how formalising deep interdependence makes both countries more secure – or more vulnerable. For that, they speak with Ben Charoenwong, Associate Professor of Finance, INSEAD.
