By improving the transparency and sustainability of the global supply chain, firms can reduce the probability of extreme losses, thus increasing investors’ expected utility and asset valuations. In order to effectively address the growing risks firms face in their global supply chains, systemic change is required. Managers can facilitate this change by increasing transparency and sustainability of their supply chains, especially in the area of carbon emissions reduction. We outline existing programs and tools that are leading the way in this regard.

She blends 20+ years of international business development and 4 years of practice-oriented teaching in international business and management. Her experience in the ethanol industry led her to service a wide range of industries including energy, chemical, personal care, pharmaceutical, food, and beverage. Her research interests focus on trade issues and the integration of sustainable practices for international business to capture opportunities and manage risks derived from economic, environmental, and social developments.

At a time when market participants are questioning the continued suitability of sovereign debt as a proxy for the risk free asset, firms have an opportunity to partially fill this void by reducing costly environmental and social risks in their supply chains. Lower investor-specific behavioral volatilities reduce the need for risk free sovereign debt in an increasingly interconnected world that faces environmental, social and financial challenges on an unprecedented scale.
