EXECUTIVE TRADE-RISK BRIEFINGS

Executive Decision Briefing Service — Non-Legal / Non-Broker (Operational Risk Translation)

What This Service Is

Executive Trade-Risk Briefings translate external trade volatility into operational risk posture and specific executive decisions.

It answers one question:

What decisions must leadership make now to protect throughput, delivery credibility, and continuity—given current trade conditions?

This is not news aggregation. This is not a legal memo. This is a decision briefing calibrated to operations.

Why This Is Needed

Most organizations receive trade information as fragmented inputs:

  • Broker updates (transactional)

  • News alerts (noise)

  • Legal memos (legal framing, not execution framing)

  • Internal assumptions (often incorrect)

Executives need: what changes in operations and what to decide.

What Companies Commonly Face (Lawful Examples)

  • Leadership hears “new tariffs may apply” but cannot translate it into: inventory posture, customer commitments, alternate sourcing cadence, or schedule risk

  • Supply chain sees disruptions early but lacks executive decisions to authorize qualification spend or buffer strategy

  • Customers demand delivery certainty while inbound variability increases

  • Internal teams argue over “risk severity” with no shared decision framework

How TJEG Performs the Work

  1. Operational Exposure Snapshot

    What materials, lanes, and suppliers are operationally critical

    Where lead-time and cost volatility will destabilize flow

  2. External Signal Translation

    Convert external conditions into: likely impact pathways, timing windows, and executive decision requirements

    No legal determinations; operational consequences only

  3. Decision Options

    Provide leadership-level options with tradeoffs: buffer posture, alternate sourcing posture, commitment controls, escalation cadence, governance rules

  4. Broker/Counsel Interface Pack

    Provide a structured “questions + data” list for the company to take to its broker/counsel for determinations and filings

    TJEG does not file; TJEG equips decision makers to manage the interface correctly
