Consulting Markets Co-Leader and ASEAN Finance Fields of Play Leader Kathrina S. Macaisa-Peña (KSM) was a guest speaker on the Market Edge, hosted by ANC Anchor Michelle Ong, last 7 October.
KSM discussed the state of supply chains (SCs) during the pandemic. She provided an overview of the gaps in local SCs such as the inability of companies to move goods around and meet customer requirements due to strict quarantine measures; the state of local infrastructure and congested roads and ports; and companies’ ability to visualize their end-to-end supply chain model. Emphasizing the pandemic’s impact on operations and investment strategies of local companies, KSM also discussed key trends and steps businesses are implementing to build their resilience.
