Global Supply Chain Risk Briefing
Dear All,
 
A very interesting White Paper prepared by an organisation called Transport Intelligence (TI)  who introduce themselves as a "market leading provider of expert research and analysis dedicated to the global logistics industry " it has been brought to our attention by FIATA and includes some highly interesting information on global supply chains and the effect on global supply chains of not only external risk factors such as floods, Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions but also the inherent internal risks facing businesses.
 
The sub-title of the paper sets the scene and announces: 'How globalisation and unbundling of production has altered the balance of supply chain risk'.  It looks at both the past, very public disruptions to supply chains and also what we might expect in the future.
 
We commend this article to you:
 
Thanks and regards,

Brian Lovell
