このコンテンツについて
Bessent made a direct appeal to business leaders regarding the administration's tariff policy, stating, "Tariffs are engineered to encourage companies like yours to invest directly in the United States. Hire your workers here, build your factories here, make your products here." He promised that businesses would benefit not only from "the most productive workforce in the world" but also from "the most favorable tax and regulatory environment."
During a conversation with Michael Milken following his remarks, Bessent outlined his goal to implement regulatory reforms that would "make everyone look more like Texas" while simultaneously reducing government borrowing. His plan aims to decrease the deficit by approximately 1% annually until it reaches the long-term average of 3.1% of gross national product.
The Treasury Secretary also stressed the critical importance of American leadership in artificial intelligence and quantum computing, declaring that without dominance in these fields, "everything else doesn't matter." This emphasis on technology aligns with the conference's broader focus, which included panels featuring Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and a private session with Elon Musk.
Just days before the conference, on May 3rd, Bessent met with Japanese Economic Revitalization Minister Ryosei Akazawa alongside Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer. During these "frank and constructive discussions," Bessent highlighted concerns about tariffs and non-tariff measures while emphasizing "the importance of economic security as national security." The meeting resulted in an agreement to begin immediate working-level consultations and schedule additional ministerial-level meetings.
Bessent's recent public appearances reinforce themes he expressed in April, when he stated that "it's Main Street's turn" after four decades of Wall Street growth. He has consistently positioned the Trump administration's economic policies as being designed to prioritize Main Street businesses and consumers.
The Treasury Secretary has also been vocal about reforming international financial institutions. In late April, he called for the IMF and World Bank to refocus on their core missions, criticizing their "sprawling and unfocused agendas." Bessent promised that the Trump Administration would "leverage U.S. leadership and influence at these institutions" while demanding greater accountability from their management and staff.
