Leveraging the California Supply Chain Transparency Act (2010) with Modern Data Tools

When California passed the Transparency in Supply Chains Act back in 2010—though it only took effect in 2012—it was, in many ways, ahead of its time.

US Tariff Accountability Act (Expected 2025) – Anticipating New Transparency Requirements

The proposal for the US Tariff Accountability Act, introduced earlier this year, is already generating considerable debate, particularly among those tasked with navigating the complexities of international trade compliance.

Canada’s Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act (ESTMA, 2015) & Downstream Beneficiaries

Since its enactment in June 2015, Canada’s Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act (ESTMA) has positioned itself as a tool — though perhaps not always as precise or decisive as originally envisioned — in promoting greater transparency within extractive industries.

Applying Australia’s Modern Slavery Act Amendments (2025) to Downstream Manufacturers
