-TSMC dominates semiconductor foundry market Market share, competitive edge, customers, performant
-TSMC and Samsung dominate advanced chip development Matrix on advanced semiconductor chips, usage of advanced chips, key players’ position
-Measures being taken by TSMC to avoid crisis Key risks, steps for averting crisis
-Major winners and losers from the crisis Competitors, customers
Introduction
We discuss the impact on the global semiconductor industry if geopolitical risks between China and Taiwan aggravate.
▪ Our study is limited to semiconductor foundry operations in Taiwan since the region is the world’s largest foundry market.
▪ In our analysis of the semiconductor sector of Taiwan, we have mainly focused on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) as it accounts for more than half of the global foundry market and produces the most advanced semiconductor chips. No other Taiwanese foundry matches TSMC in scale or capability.
▪ Furthermore, we discuss the impact on processing chips only as Taiwan dominates the supply of these chips.
▪ Our analysis includes potential winners and losers from the disruption of Taiwanese semiconductor operations.
▪ In our study, we have assumed that Taiwanese foundries could face severe disruption if China takes control of foundry operations.
▪ To understand more about the global semiconductor sector, we recommend other special reports on the semiconductors sector such as Valuation of Semiconductor Companies, Global Semiconductor Chip Shortage, and Semiconductor Supply Chain Analysis published by Aranca. 2 Impact of China–Taiwan Geopolitical Risks on Semiconductor Sector
