EU Deforestation Directive: Overcoming Challenges in Supply Chain Transparency
Manage episode 399932666 series 3036155
Hear from Thomas Vaassen, Co-Founder and CEO of Meridia, to learn how the EU Deforestation Directive is changing the nature of data required across supply chains.
Supply chains are becoming an ever-greater focus for risk professionals. Firms increasingly want to measure the carbon footprint of their suppliers, or better understand their resilience, in the face of increasingly severe weather shocks. We are also seeing legislation driving greater transparency, which hinges on our ability to get accurate data.
Although often taken for granted in the developed world, having good quality data on property rights is not a given in many parts of the world and this, in turn, makes analysis of complex and often remote components of supply chains very challenging.
That’s why today’s episode will focus on:
- How legislation, such as the European Deforestation regulation, is changing the data landscape for firms;
- The practical challenges for obtaining good quality property rights data in remote locations; and
- How the world of data might change over coming years, with advances in technology and data collection.
