How well do you know your customers? It can be difficult to find out information that customers and end-users try to hide. Join this breakout session to share strategies for uncovering concealed information that could be vital for your company.

C: Due Diligence on Mergers and Acquisitions

Merging or acquiring an entity means you take on all the other company’s liabilities. Are their compliance programmes up to your standards? Who are their business associates and have they been properly vetted? Are they in good financial standing? Discuss the best way to go about M&A with your peers.

D: Practicalities of Adding the Requirements of the Modern Slavery Act and Anti-Human Trafficking Rules to your Due Diligence Checks

Human trafficking has become a big concern to both Europe and the US and can be difficult to identify within your supply chain. Join this group to discuss what your obligations are under anti-human trafficking regulations and how to carry out checks that will ensure your business associates are not engaging in this practice.
