The Fraud Files EP8: Supply chain risks

This episode brings together our CC&I and ESG teams to consider supply chain risks, both in the context of failure to prevent fraud and of broader sustainability issues. Elizabeth Head, Kate Meakin and Rebecca Chin discuss whether suppliers are associated persons for the purposes of failure to prevent fraud, increased international expectations and requirements around human rights and environmental due diligence on supply chains, and the steps that companies can consider taking to address these risks.Further information on the topics covered in this episode can be found in these links:A summary of failure to prevent fraud is hereFurther information on ESG and money laundering issues in supply chains is hereInformation on the EU forced labour ban is hereInformation on the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive is hereWe discuss UK calls for the introduction of mandatory human rights due diligence hereWe discuss the EU's Omnibus proposals here.To receive our latest ESG insights, sign up to our ESG Newsletter here.
