What’s the sense of urgency?
Tariffs and trade tensions aren’t just geopolitical — they’re financial.
As governments revisit trade policies and introduce new tariffs with little warning, businesses with international supply chains are facing real cost pressures. Even small changes in duties can ripple through your AP processes, supplier relationships, and bottom line.
Uncertainty is becoming the norm.
Supply chains are still recovering from pandemic disruptions, inflation remains volatile, and protectionist policies are gaining momentum. All of this puts finance leaders in a difficult position: make fast decisions without full visibility, or risk being caught off guard.
Now is the time to act — not react.
The businesses that fare best in this environment are those with visibility, agility, and a plan. This guide helps you get ahead of the uncertainty by identifying exposures, evaluating sourcing options, and preparing executive stakeholders for change. The sooner you start, the more options you’ll have to protect margins and avoid disruption.
