On Thursday, 26 September 2024, our webinar on Third-Party Risk Management in cooperation with Coupa took place.

During this webinar in cooperation with Coupa we provided insights on:

What is the Driving the Growing Relevance of TPRM

Companies increasingly rely on third parties due to outsourcing, globalization, and digitalization, increasing risks in supply chains. Cybersecurity concerns, regulatory compliance, and reputational damage are also significant issues, necessitating robust security standards and robust regulatory compliance.

Europe's Legal Environment Is Still Changing

The EU is introducing and amending laws affecting businesses in Europe, focusing on cybersecurity, sustainability, and operational resilience, with a global influence.

Regulations

The EUDR, LKSG, Swiss Law, CSDDD, DORA, NIS1, NIS2, EBA and DORA are global regulations aimed at enhancing human rights and environmental due diligence in supply chains. They focus on transparency, ethical practices, corporate social responsibility, cybersecurity, and risk management in the financial sector.
