Herbert Smith Freehills has published a new global guide on supply chain difficulties arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and associated restrictions.

The guide explores issues around: maintaining the links in the supply chain; competition law issues; product-related issues; and the suspension and termination of contracts. In each area, the guide suggests practical steps to consider immediately and further ahead, and environmental, social and governance (ESG) and human rights issues are also explored. Where appropriate, the guide includes country-specific overviews and insights on the issues covered.
