Inconsistency as a Risk Factor: New Challenges in International Compliance, Law, and Trade-tariff Regulation
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: In the context of global transformation processes in international politics and economics, the instability and occasional irrationality of legal frameworks governing international relations have a substantial impact on global trade and law enforcement. This article explores inconsistency as a risk factor from the perspective of international compliance, law, and trade-tariff regulation. In particular, it focuses on changes in international trade, sanctions policies, tariff regimes, as well as abrupt shifts in guidelines and legislation in some countries that have a significant impact on global trade. The article analyzes potential risks for companies involved in international trade, especially those with operations spanning multiple regions of the world. Practical recommendations for managing risks in the context of legal instability are also proposed. The methodology includes a comparative analysis of the approaches to regulation in the United States and the European Union in the given context, content analysis of legislative and regulatory acts, as well as an examination of hypothetical cases of companies facing legal uncertainty, using a systemic approach to identify connections between political decisions and economic consequences
