EU parliament adopts steel safeguards
EU parliament adopts steel safeguards
Brussels, 19 May (Argus) — The European Parliament today adopted the new steel import measure, paving the way for its entry into force by 1 July, subject to final approval by EU member states and publication in the official journal. The regulation , adopted by a large majority, will set tariff-rate quotas of 18.3mn t/yr for steel with an out-of-quota duty set at 50pc for 30 categories of steel products imported to the EU. The European Commission aims to adopt an implementing act by 1 July setting out specific country quotas. EU commissioner Costas Kadis said "intense" discussions are under way in Geneva with more than 20 trading partners. Around 80pc of EU steel imports come from countries with which it has free-trade agreements (FTAs), he said. The commission says safeguards must apply equally to all third countries, including candidate countries such as Ukraine and countries with FTAs. Kadis expects global overcapacity to reach 721mn t by next year, more than five times EU annual steel consumption. Swedish liberal rapporteur Karin Karlsbro criticised the provisions covering Ukrainian steel imports during the parliamentary debate. The commission should help, not punish, Ukraine through the steel safeguards, she said, citing Russian attacks on steelworkers in Kryvyi Rih, Dnipro and Kamianske. "Trade policy should be a tool to keep the Ukrainian economy alive while they are defending us," Karlsbro said. Kadis said the decision on Ukraine had not been taken "lightly". Ukraine will receive a country-specific quota that ensures continued steel exports to the EU at levels "lower than before the war". But officials will take account of the country's immediate security situation when setting the quota, he said. French liberal MEP Yvan Verougstraete welcomed the deal for halving import quotas and doubling duties outside tariff-rate quotas. But he called for customs duties on imported cars, saying the use of "cheap, polluting" steel saves Chinese manufacturers €500/car. Polish far-right Patriots member Anna Brylka blamed the commission for the industry's problems, citing high energy costs, climate policy, decarbonisation and the emissions trading system.

EU eyes deducting carbon credits under CBAM
EU eyes deducting carbon credits under CBAM
London, 13 May (Argus) — Domestic and Paris Agreement-aligned international carbon credits used to pay for emissions in non-EU countries could be counted towards a carbon price already paid on an import's emissions under the bloc's carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), under proposals published by the European Commission today. Under the CBAM regulation, declarants can claim a reduction in the CBAM certificates they must surrender for emissions embedded in imported goods if a carbon price has already been paid in the country of origin. In a draft implementing act published for consultation today, the commission proposed including all forms of compliance options allowed in the relevant country in the calculation, including carbon credits. Claiming this reduction should be allowed "irrespective of whether the mitigation activities linked to the carbon credit takes place domestically or outside the domestic jurisdiction", according to the draft implementing regulation. But while domestic credits could be counted with no additional criteria, only international credits issued under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement should be counted, the commission proposed. "This criterion should promote the development of Article 6 credits and provide the quality assurance necessary to ensure the environmental integrity of CBAM," it said. Counting international credits as a carbon price already paid on CBAM goods should also be limited to 10pc of the reported emissions to incentivise domestic emissions cuts, the commission said. Any rebates or compensation received by installations covered by carbon pricing should also be factored in, the commission proposed, including free allowances or other exemptions. The carbon price could have been paid on direct, indirect or precursor emissions, under the draft. The commission may publish default carbon prices for relevant countries, it said. And it proposed publishing a yearly reference price for CBAM certificates to be used in the calculation of the deduction. The price paid in the non-EU country would be based on either a yearly average primary or secondary market price or individual records of payment, converted to euros based on yearly average exchange rates. The regulation would apply from 1 January this year. The consultation closes on 10 June. By Victoria Hatherick Send comments and request more information at feedback@argusmedia.com Copyright © 2026.

US producer inflation surges by 6pc in April
US producer inflation surges by 6pc in April
Houston, 13 May (Argus) — Prices paid to US producers surged by an annual 6pc in April, the biggest gain since December 2022, spurred by rising energy costs triggered by the Mideast Gulf war. The producer price index (PPI) gained from an upwardly revised 4.3pc in March, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Prices rose by 3.4pc in February and by 3.1pc in January and were at 2.4pc in April last year. The PPI report comes one day after BLS reported that the consumer price index rose by an annual 3.7pc in April , the biggest gain in nearly three years. The PPI report shows more inflation is in the pipeline, triggered by the Mideast Gulf war that started on 28 February. "Stickier core inflation from AI buildout, passthrough from the oil price shock, and lingering tariff effects will keep the Federal Reserve at bay for most of 2026," Oxford Economics said in a note. "Eventually, we expect higher energy prices will feed through to weaker consumer spending and a softer labor market, prompting the Fed to deliver its next rate cut in December." Prices for energy rose by 22.7pc in April from a year prior following 11.2pc originally reported the prior month, BLS said. Energy for export rose by 50pc after an 18.6pc gain. Core producer prices, excluding volatile energy and food, rose by 5.2pc in April after a 3.8pc gain the prior month. Prices for goods rose by an annual 7.4pc in April, led by gasoline, compared with 4.9pc originally reported the prior month Services rose by 5.5pc, partly led by margins for trade services, after a gain of 3.7pc. Food rose by 2.2pc in April after a 1.6pc gain the prior month. Transport and warehousing services rose by 12.2pc after a 6.1pc gain the prior month. Transportation of passengers rose by 11pc after a 7.5pc gain in March. On a monthly basis, seasonally adjusted PPI rose by 1.4pc in April following a 0.7pc monthly gain in March and 0.6pc gains each of the prior two months.

EU steel prices sustained by trade measures: Assofermet
EU steel prices sustained by trade measures: Assofermet
London, 8 May (Argus) — EU mills are sustaining steel prices through trade barriers rather than stronger demand, Italian steel association Assofermet said on Friday. Weak demand from European manufacturing end users continued in April as geopolitical tensions, US tariffs and uncertainty around the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism weighed on sentiment. Buyers continued to limit purchases to what they needed to cover existing orders, with no appetite for restocking, the association said. Assofermet also flagged concern ahead of the revised EU safeguard measures due to enter force on 1 July, which will reduce available import quotas by 47pc and double duties on volumes exceeding quarterly quotas. The association said increasingly constrained imports are making it harder to source certain steel grades within the EU market. The group also backed stricter "Made in EU" procurement rules, similar to European steel association Eurofer , which warned about defining European steel based on where material is melted and poured to prevent imported substrate processed in the EU from qualifying as European-origin steel. Italian steel distributors reported lower sales volumes and prices in April compared with the same month last year, with long steel and flat steel products both under pressure. The automotive and heavy engineering sectors continued to be affected by US tariff policies and uncertainty surrounding potential measures on European cars. Assofermet expects the market to remain cautious at least until the implementation of the revised EU safeguard measures and the 1 August deadline for EU-US trade negotiations.
