In an era of increasingly sophisticated global trade, traditional risk management is no longer enough. To stay ahead of regulatory scrutiny and illicit networks, organizations must shift their focus from static “entity-based” screening to a more dynamic, “typological” approach.
In this episode of the Millennium Live podcast, Colby Potter, Lead Analytical Content Manager at Sayari, returns to discuss his latest analysis on the rise of typological risk. Building on previous conversations regarding forced labor and supply chain transparency, Colby explains why understanding the patterns of risk is now as critical as knowing the identity of a supplier.
In this podcast episode, you’ll learn:
- Defining Typological Risk: Why regulators are moving away from simple “list-matching” and toward identifying behavioral patterns and risk profiles.
- The Evolution of Global Compliance: How the shift from forced labor mandates to broader trade security requires a new due diligence framework.
- Proactive Risk Mapping: How companies can use corporate disclosure data to identify hidden risks before they trigger a regulatory enforcement action.
- 2026 Outlook: What the “typological shift” means for Fortune 1000 C-Suite leaders and supply chain teams in the coming year.
