Today back in the Port of Antwerp for an executive team meeting.

Always a pleasure to visit our office here.

Do you think that international trade is getting complicated? You ain’t seen nothing yet. We are only in very beginning of a time period where trade complexity will accelerate to never before seen levels. 

Trade wars. Tariff wars. Multi-tier, multi-geography ESG supply chain regulations.  

There are four ESG supply chain regulations operational and we are monitoring ten more. 

CBAM is now fully operational and the EU Commission is planning for an extension with more product categories to be included. 

Eleven months from now the EU Deforestation (EUDR) regulation enters into operation force. New similar ESG regulations are on the way in more than ten countries. There has never been more active sanctions than right now. 

In this environment what is the insurance you need to protect your international trade? 

Get a strategic customs plan for your business and implement a multipurpose one-stop-shop trade compliance solution. 

I just arrived to Brussels. We lived here six years more than a decade ago.
