Customs and international trade
Ernst & Young Customs and International Trade (“CIT”) group assists clients in improving trade compliance function and ensuring the operational effectiveness of your supply chain, to leverage competitive advantage in the marketplace.
In today’s global economy, international trade is becoming increasingly complex. Increased trade volumes, strengthened export control and import regulations, and reduced lead times combine to create significant challenges for international companies’ supply chain security. Leading international companies must develop supply chain strategies that account for this complex trade compliance environment. Effective trade strategies can also reduce exposure to penalties and significant supply chain disruption if non-compliance is identified. Companies are increasingly focusing their supply chain strategies around two key global trade requirements:
- Trade optimisation – Focuses on import duty-tax optimisation; efficient import/export trade operations and optimised logistics.
- Risk management – Focuses on regulatory trade compliance and trade security.
Ernst & Young’s CIT consultants have a wealth of trade compliance and supply chain management experience, which is supplemented by the knowledge and experience of our wide range of E&Y specialists across the globe. CIT works with clients around our 5 core offerings:
