$10,000 AWARD
Hinrich Foundation Award for Distinguished Reporting on Trade
Award Established 2019

The Hinrich Foundation Award for Distinguished Reporting on Trade recognizes exemplary journalism that illuminates and advances the public’s understanding of international business and trade. The award is open to any professional journalist worldwide whose work exemplifies the highest standards of journalism and is published by a reputable news organization. This includes print, broadcast and digital journalists. This award carries a US$10,000 prize. Award winners participate in NPF’s annual awards event. The jury for this award is comprised of four distinguished journalists.

This year’s winner is Bloomberg News Staff for a series of comprehensive reporting on a variety of trade issues — from AI advancements, Brazil choosing China over the U.S. for a factory plant and an in-depth analysis on decoupling from China.

Members of the Bloomberg team accepted the award at the NPF 41st annual awards dinner Feb. 15, 2024.

Last year’s winners were Cheng Ting-Fang and Lauly Li who covered how the pandemic, war and the escalating U.S.-China strife over semiconductors combined to upend global supply chains in 2022.
