January 08, 2024Simply Trade [News]: Between a Rock and a Hard Place - Trade Grinds to a Halt as Geopolitical Tensions Rise
Join Annik as she takes on the news of the week with her co-hosts, Lalo and Andy.
Red Sea Crisis Boosts Shipping Costs and Delays Inflation
The hosts discuss how the ongoing terrorist attacks and piracy in the Red Sea region have caused freight rates from Asia to Northern Europe to double. Shipping companies are now forced to take much longer routes around the southern tip of Africa instead of using the crucial Suez Canal shipping lane. This significant increase in transportation costs and delays is rippling through global supply chains and exacerbating inflation worldwide.
US Border Entry Points Reopen as Migrant Crossings Decrease
The reopening of four US-Mexico border entry points is explored. While reduced migrant crossings allowed this, the ongoing situation is complex with immigration pressures still intense further south. Trade impacts are also considered, with the potential for future closures if crossings surge again.
CBP Export Seizures - Knowing the Rules and Consequences
This segment warns exporters to thoroughly research regulations and vet business partners to avoid costly seizures or penalties. With increased CBP enforcement in 2024, compliance is critical. Export licensing, prohibited end users, and supply chain transparency are discussed as key areas to scrutinize for international trade and customs compliance.

January 05, 2024Supply Chain Superpowers through Federated Learning with Alan Bersin
In this episode of Simply Trade, Alan Bersin continues his discussion from Part 1 on the evolution of supply chain security and trade compliance. Major topics covered include moving from federated search to federated learning, building supply chain visibility, engaging the C-suite, and strengthening partnerships between government and the private sector.
Key Discussion Points:
- Alan Bersin discussed the evolution from the federated search model used by CBP to the new paradigm of federated learning being developed by Altana. Federated learning allows risk signals to be shared without commingling private data.
- An example was provided of how federated search could be used with a company like Nike to validate supply chain information on a shipment of branded goods.
- The importance of supply chain visibility beyond the first tier of suppliers was highlighted, especially with regulations like the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act.
- Actions the private sector can take to engage C-suite executives on compliance transformation included assessing supply chain visibility and available technologies.
- Companies should monitor indicators like increases in CBP inquiries (CF28s) and enforcement actions (CF29s) that may point to gaps requiring attention.
- Geopolitical variables like US-China tensions and potential conflict over Taiwan could introduce major disruptions, emphasizing the need for agile, data-driven supply chain risk management.
- Partnership between government and the private sector was stressed as critical to effectively address compliance challenges through a federated learning approach.
