Turn supply chain risk into stronger compliance controls

Global supply chains bring global responsibilities. For European businesses, understanding which regulations apply and translating them into effective supplier controls can be a significant challenge. 

Against a backdrop of geopolitical uncertainty, shifting trade relationships and evolving regulatory requirements, how can your organisation identify its exposure and address compliance gaps before they become costly problems? 

Join Erena Langley from NAVEX and Michael Volkov from the Volkov Law Group for a practical discussion on navigating supply chain regulations and reducing the risk of fines and penalties. We’ll explore key regulatory examples, what they mean for companies operating across borders, and the steps businesses can take to strengthen due diligence, respond to warning signs and demonstrate effective oversight.

What we’ll cover

  • The global supply chain landscape: How geopolitical tensions, trade disruption and regulatory uncertainty are shaping supplier risk. 
  • Key regulations to understand: Examples of supply chain due diligence, sanctions, anti-bribery and forced labour requirements, and how to assess their relevance to your business. 
  • What compliance means for European companies: How to identify applicable obligations and translate them into practical processes across global supply chains. 
  • Reducing exposure to fines and penalties: The role of risk-based due diligence, clear accountability, ongoing monitoring and documented action in preventing compliance failures. 
  • How technology and NAVEX can help: Supporting third-party screening, identifying changing risks and strengthening visibility into supplier relationships.
