Webinar: Creating Differentiation in an Increasingly Competitive Logistics Market

[from FreightWaves]

You can’t control what you can’t see. The market is feverishly growing as more 3PLs see visibility as a strategic advantage. Given the communications and compliance blind spots in a supply chain where double loading and double brokering have become more common and 3PLs are turning to unfamiliar carriers in a search for capacity, 3PLs with superior technology can separate themselves from the pack. 

Join FreightWaves as they partner with Overhaul for a live webinar on Thursday, August 4 at 11 AM ET (45 minutes), where they will discuss how you can win in the current market not just by being reliable—but by being transparent and proving the integrity and security of the products you’ve been trusted to move.

Featured speakers will include:
• Frankie Mossman, Chief Customer Officer, Overhaul
• Sara Lieser, Senior Vice President of Partnerships, Overhaul 

Register today to join FreightWaves & Overhaul for the live session.

Colombia’s New Regulatory Framework for Beneficial Ownership: Analysis of Strengths and Weaknesses

by Global Financial Integrity

Countries around the world are increasingly recognizing the importance of establishing beneficial ownership registries as a means to promote transparency and combat financial crimes. As part of this international trend, Colombia passed beneficial ownership legislation in 2021 and emitted regulations for rollout of the registry in 2022. Global Financial Integrity analyzed Colombia’s new legal and regulatory framework for beneficial ownership and identified five strengths and five weaknesses, as are described in this legal review.

Strengths of the Regulatory Framework:
  1. The registry will be anchored to the existing Unique Tax Registry (Registro Único Tributario, or “RUT”).
  2. Mechanisms for updating beneficial ownership information are efficient and digitalized.
  3. Penalties for non-compliance.
  4. The 5% threshold.
  5. Creating an Identification System for Structures that are Not Legal Entities.
Weaknesses of the Regulatory Framework:
  1. Limited information access, both inside and outside of government.
  2. Identifying the beneficial owner.
  3. Reporting responsibilities of foreign-owned companies.
  4. Lack of clarity surrounding verification.
  5. Lack of clarity regarding anti-corruption and anti-money laundering applications.
