HSBC has published a report titled “Building Resilient Supply Chains Amid an Uncertain Geopolitical Landscape,” in collaboration with Procurement Leaders. The report emphasizes the importance of supply chain finance in mitigating risks related to global trade disruptions.

Marissa Adams, HSBC Americas Head of Global Trade Solutions, highlights that modern supply chains' complexity makes them vulnerable to unexpected shocks. Companies are advised to make supply chains more transparent, resilient, and less dependent on single suppliers. Supply chain finance can help by injecting liquidity and improving supplier resilience.

The report suggests a four-stage risk assessment process: focus on high-risk areas, analyze potential disruption consequences, explore alternative suppliers, and continuously reassess emerging risks. This follows the launch of HSBC Global Trade Solutions, aimed at supporting businesses in navigating global trade challenges using HSBC's extensive network and expertise.
