What the EU's 70% local content threshold means for its industrial base

What happened

The EU is implementing binding 'Made in Europe' content rules, linking EV subsidies and public procurement to a 70% local content threshold. This policy aims to reshape automotive supply chains and boost regional manufacturing. Watch: This creates long-term demand uncertainty for non-EU chip suppliers while potentially benefiting EU-based semiconductor fabs.
