</p><p>The latest <a href=»/us/companies/allianz/66992/»>Allianz</a> Trade Global Survey, which polled 6,000 companies across 13 markets in February and March, shows that the Middle East conflict has not derailed export optimism but has reshuffled the global risk map after a year of trade wars.</p><p style=»display: inline;» class=»WPAuto_Base_Readability-styled»>
