Description

The health and safety of our members is the UWEBC’s top priority. UW–Madison is monitoring the COVID-19 situation in collaboration with local, state and federal agencies. Based on campus' guidance, this meeting will be held via web only to allow our members a convenient and safe way to attend.

In this virtual meeting, we plan to discuss the current state of trade compliance when it comes to risk in todays environment. Attorney Jenn Jin will discuss force majeure as it relates to trade compliance and how trade professionals can address it in the current climate as well as long term risk mitigation by setting up best practices around force majuere. Additionally, Bruce Glaub of the Trade Acceptance Group will present on Trade Credit Insurance and Methods of Payment for Competitive Markets covering both commercial and political risks. Finally, Jay Nash of SUNY, Albany and Nash Global Trade will discuss export control/compliance implications of COVID-19.
