Managing Import and Export Opportunities and Risks: An Insider's Guide for the Busy Executive

MANAGING IMPORT AND EXPORT OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS efficiently provides the tools and knowledge to any International Trade professional who wants to turn opportunities into profits and avoid risks of non-compliance.

The BUSINESS EDUCATION EDITION of Managing Import and Export Opportunities and Risks additionally focuses on essential commercial and compliance issues affecting international trade today.

WHY INTERNATIONAL TRADE EXECUTIVES NEED THIS BOOK

What constitutes opportunity may be easy to comprehend, but the nature and scope of risk may be less obvious or static. Many inadvertent risks result from obsolete business practices. All too often importers and exporters only find out that their practices were deficient when a problem arises and they realize that what they perceived as evidence of good practices were merely good fortune.

The executive managing commercial operations that involve international trade will benefit from this thoughtful and practical treatment of the essentials of compliance opportunities and risks.

We appreciate that our executives only want to spend their time where necessary.

We do not expect our executive to read all of what we offer, which is why we have designed the publication to help our executive find what is necessary and relevant.

If you are looking for an all-inclusive legal dissertation or clerk's documentation guide, there are many available. This edition, by your choosing and ours, is not one of them.

We try to help you distinguish between what you need to know and what you need to have availableas time or business dictate. We keep things concise. We tell you what we believe is important and then guide you further, if you so choose.

HOW WE GUIDE OUR EXECUTIVES.

• EXECUTIVE BRIEFINGS at the beginning of each section will summarize the law and its importance to your business.
