Dutch chipmaker Nexperia is facing significant cross-border tensions between its headquarters in the Netherlands and its unit in China. This clash exposes broader risks and shifts in the global semiconductor supply chain landscape. China has agreed to take measures to resume trade from Nexperia’s facilities, aiming to allow the production of critical legacy chips to continue flowing to the rest of the world. However, despite China’s easing of the chip export ban, supply shortages remain a concern, with potential further interruptions looming.
