In today's global business environment, supply chains are becoming increasingly complex and the dependence being placed on them is unprecedented. Many companies are under enormous pressure to reduce costs in their supply chain and improve efficiency, whilst also finding ways to improve customer service and responsiveness. Reducing costs can often result in the unintentional increased exposure to risks of disruption, and companies must understand and manage the complex web of risks that arise.

The consequences of an interruption in the supply chain can be severe, including not just loss of revenue and decreased profitability, but a reduction in share price and, in extreme cases, permanent damage to reputation and brand. The recent volcanic ash incident also highlights the need to consider 'non-damage' business interruption risks. In response, Marsh has developed innovative solutions to these supply chain risks, including both a rigorous assessment service and a risk transfer product.
