The fast pace of economic growth in much of Asia is forcing many companies to grow and change at breakneck speed. Many of them struggle to keep up with the changes in the regulatory environment that applies to the import/export of products. The relevant compliance activities are outsourced to third parties or undertaken by fairly junior clerical staff. With or without the knowledge of business leaders, corners may be cut. More often than not, supply and invoicing structures are changed without taking full account of the impact this has on a company's customs duty bill, trading licenses or compliance requirements. In this webcast, our customs and trade specialists from the PwC Worldtrade Management Services (WMS) practice shared their insights on important issues that are or should be keeping traders awake at night. They highlighted common issues that are often overlooked or only addressed when a company is challenged by the authorities. Learn about some of the best practices that companies can adopt to reduce the risk of getting into trouble in the first place, and how these practices may even save them money in the process. Archived webcast This is a 1-hour audio webcast including a live Q&A session.
