How directors can navigate ongoing geopolitical and economic uncertainty

Faced with a volatile economic landscape, board directors and audit committee must stay up-to-date on critical trade and tariff developments as they prepare for the upcoming financial reporting cycle.

Across Canada, boards and audit committees are navigating a volatile and complex economic landscape while managing the impact of ever-changing US policy shifts on the organizations they serve.

Join us for an engaging one-hour webinar designed to help board directors and audit committee members stay up-to-date on critical trade and tariff developments. During this webinar, EY Trade, Policy and Assurance leaders will provide an economic update from a board perspective, discuss current trade policy and the implications of tariffs on Canadian businesses, and share insight into how directors can prepare for ongoing policy changes and tariff disruption. Topics will include:
