Programme

The Impact of Fraud and Cybercrime on Transportation – Annemieke Spijker
In recent years, cargo theft - particularly during road transport - has surged significantly. Cybercriminals increasingly exploit artificial intelligence to impersonate legitimate logistics service providers and shippers, replicating their corporate identities with alarming precision. By infiltrating email systems and accessing sensitive databases, these actors manipulate communications and gain unauthorized control over cargo.
This evolving threat landscape raises critical questions about liability within the logistics chain. These issues demand urgent attention as the industry grapples with the legal and financial consequences of digital deception.

Supply chain compliance – Sebastiaan Moolenaar
Internationally operating commercial parties experience substantial rule pressure aimed at supply chain compliance. Government authorities and financial service providers increasingly monitor and enforce these rules, which means that cross-border operations need to be properly planned, assessed and documented to make sure they comply with sanctions, export control instruments, and AML and ESG requirements. In an increasingly globalized economy facing volatile geopolitical developments, ensuring that international value chains chains meet regulatory, ethical, environmental and contractual standards is more critical than ever.

The Netherlands: A Strategic Jurisdiction for Securing Claims and Evidence – Haco van der Houven van Oordt
The Netherlands has long been an attractive jurisdiction for creditors seeking to secure claims through attachments. Its liberal legal framework has enabled parties to obtain security for claims — regardless of where the underlying litigation or arbitration is taking place. Recent legislative developments have further strengthened the Netherlands’ position by introducing favourable conditions for securing evidence in support of foreign litigation or arbitration. These new rules significantly expand the tools available to parties involved in cross-border disputes
