A new era

Ongoing supply chain issues are affecting businesses around the world. In a two-part Chubb report series, we explore supply chain logistics and how to reduce business interruption through robust risk management. 

The global economy is experiencing a supply chain crisis. Everything from COVID-19 to the Russia-Ukraine war, and from rising inflation to the increasing risk of a global recession, has been affecting the flow of goods. 

Our insights into robust risk management strategies explore the causes and effects of global supply chain disruption. We also tell you what you need to know to improve supply chain management and boost operational resilience within your business. 

The spectre of disruption: supply chain risks and what you need to know will help you ask the right questions. Our reports include top takeaways from risk and supply chain experts on what it all means for business and how to mitigate risks. We also hear from a leading international economist, one of the founding members of the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England.
