Encouraging EU competition law may permit competitor collab on supply chain ESG oversight. Also worked w/counsel who believe US law can permit much of same. Maybe impossible w/out collab or not as effective. https://t.co/57KILz0KOQ #regulatory #antitrustandcompetition #europe

EY finding business case lacking for sustainability among supply chain execs suggests current/growing legal risk isn't weighed/visible enough, e.g. labor/enviro import bans, false adv litigation, consumr protect litigation, due diligence requirements etc. https://t.co/mscPYqUCZn

Increasingly news covers corp legal need to engage supply chains more deeply on ESG. FCPA/OFAC have pushed G deeper. Several E&S laws now doing so. Challenges abound - corp capacity, needs for new local partners/evidence, collective action/compt law. https://t.co/aAoBqcUzoI

It would also be productive to talk more directly with these types of local experts in various supply chains and brands to accelerate understanding of how they can work together more.

This type of 3d party supply chain risk service grew out of FCPA and OFAC push to evaluate actors difftly. Now providers see new biz in demands on supply chains such as new ESG-related laws but new subject matter requires new types of local expertise. https://t.co/vxZbb48ScB
