Why Early Compliance Saves Millions | Jeremy Page
Thursday Jun 19, 2025
Thursday Jun 19, 2025
Welcome back Jeremy Page, renowned trade attorney and partner at Page Fura Law Firm, a leading expert in international trade compliance. With decades of experience navigating the complex world of global trade regulations, Jeremy brings unparalleled insights into tariff strategies, customs enforcement, and supply chain challenges. In this must-watch episode, Jeremy dissects the latest trade remedies, from Section 301 tariffs to reciprocal trade policies, revealing how these regulations impact businesses and consumers alike. Whether you're an import-export professional, small business owner, or simply curious about how global trade affects everyday prices, Jeremy breaks down complex trade policies into digestible, actionable insights."These companies were barely absorbing 25% tariffs. They operate on very small margins. Steel, aluminum at 50% - I mean, they were barely absorbent if that ... they don't have market leverage, and they don't have the built-in capital to either absorb these costs or bring production back here. There should be a floor below which these tariffs don't apply for certain types of companies, because smaller companies are always the growth industry." - Jeremy Page
The current complex and rapidly changing trade environment, businesses must:
Involve trade compliance experts early in strategic planning
Build a multi-functional, educated team that understands trade complexities
Be cautious of quick "creative" solutions that might lead to compliance risks
Stay informed about nuanced regulatory changes
Recognize that compliance is no longer just a cost center, but a strategic business functionContact Jeremy:website - https://pagefura.com/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremy-page-40b4aa6/
