- Evolving Supply Chain Risk Landscape: Global Trends and Their Impact on APAC Markets
As regulatory shifts unfold in the US and EU, their influence on APAC markets becomes increasingly significant. With the introduction of new regulations and standards in these regions, businesses and investors in the Asia-Pacific are prompted to reassess and adapt their strategies. As APAC markets evolve in response to these changes, stakeholders must reconsider their decision-making processes, especially regarding supply chain management. During this roundtable, we will explore the lessons learned from 2024 and discuss what companies should prepare for in the coming years. Join us to gain valuable insights and engage in meaningful discussions with industry experts about navigating the future of responsible sourcing.
- Investment and Financial Institutions' Growing Appetite for Supply Risk Management: Focus on Social and Labor Risk Assessment
As investment and financial institutions increasingly recognize the importance of managing supply chain risks, particularly regarding social and labor issues, the conversation around responsible sourcing has never been more pertinent. This heightened focus on supply risk management is being driven by various factors, including regulatory pressures, reputational concerns, and the growing demand from consumers and stakeholders for responsible business practices. During this workshop, we will address the expectations of capital providers from companies regarding their approach to supply chain risks. What measures are being taken to assess and mitigate social and labor risks? How can companies align their sourcing practices with the expectations of investors and stakeholders?
