Summary
This webinar explores the complex relationship between tariffs, supply chain dynamics, and risk management strategies in today's volatile global environment. As organizations face significant instability and disruptions, the session will examine how evolving trade policies and tariffs impact both Financial Institutions (FIs) and Non-Financial Corporations (NFCs), with particular focus on industries facing the most severe threats.
The discussion will begin with an analysis of tariff implications and their cascading effects across various countries and industries. Beyond the immediate operational and geopolitical challenges, the session will address a fundamental challenge in risk management: monitoring the financial stability of portfolios and individual counterparties, especially given the limitations of traditional financial reporting cycles.
Participants will gain insights into analyzing risk factors across financial, operational, and business dimensions, focusing on industries most impacted by trade policy changes. The session will also highlight how predictive indicators and Early Warning Signals can assist in forecasting shifts in financial stability across diverse portfolios, providing actionable insights for assessing the likelihood of default among key entities.
This comprehensive approach combines supply chain intelligence with advanced risk analytics to provide a more complete picture of customer and supplier risk management in today's complex business environment.
Key Topics to Cover:
- Tariff Impacts: Analysis of how trade policies affect various countries and industries, examining risk patterns and adaptation strategies.
- Portfolio Monitoring: Insights into tracking financial stability across customer and supplier portfolios, utilizing advanced analytics to identify and assess emerging risks.
This session will provide valuable insights for risk managers, procurement professionals, and business leaders seeking to enhance their risk management strategies in an increasingly complex global environment.
