Digital Asset Risk and Regulatory Compliance Expectations for 2024

Published

on

NEW YORK, Feb. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Executives involved in managing digital assets like digital currencies, digital securities, and stablecoins expect digital asset risks to increase and the regulatory environment to become more complex in 2024, according to a recent Deloitte poll. Related investments at most organizations are expected to remain flat.

Looking at the next 12 months, nearly one-quarter (24.7%) of respondents believe that the number and size of digital asset risks their organizations must manage will increase. Further, 45.5% state that an increasingly complex regulatory environment stands to pose the greatest challenge to their organizations’ related compliance risk management efforts in 2024.

In line with risk expectations, respondents are most likely to expect no change in their organizations’ digital asset investment strategy in the year ahead (46.5%), although 17.9% indicate their organizations will increase digital asset investments in the next 12 months. Among those expecting an increase, public company leaders are more than twice as likely as private company peers to report plans for increased investments (public = 25.4%; private = 10.5%).

“We expect interest in tokenization and digital assets to grow as a wide range of organizations continue to explore use of distributed ledger technology to drive efficiencies and evolve business model strategies,” said Richard Rosenthal, a Deloitte Risk & Financial Advisory principal specializing in risk and regulatory matters, Deloitte & Touche LLP. “At the same time, digital assets pose unique risks for organizations, making it critical for those using these products to proactively manage related risks to protect investments and navigate concerns from investors, policymakers, and the financial markets more broadly.”

Despite the outlook on the digital asset risk landscape, just 27% of polled executives say their boards are updated on digital asset risk and compliance matters quarterly or more frequently. Public company professionals are more likely to report digital asset risk efforts to their boards more often than private companies (public = 31.2%; private = 23.2%).

“Digital asset risk should be a mainstay board agenda item for any organization that actively uses digital assets in its operations,” said Tim Davis, a Deloitte Risk & Financial Advisory principal and U.S. blockchain and digital asset leader. “The spectrum of risks linked to digital assets is broad and complex, with the capacity to impact a company’s financials, reputation and more if not properly monitored. Boards need to be assured that these risks are not just acknowledged, but are actively and effectively being managed across the enterprise.”

About the online poll
Over 320 C-suite and other executives involved in their organizations’ digital asset management efforts were polled during a recent webcast titled “Risk management and governance of digital assets,” on Nov. 28, 2023. Answer rates differed by question.

EU Olive Oil: Promoting European Extra Virgin Olive Oil at the Plant Based Expo in New York

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Following the success of the June event dedicated to journalists, opinion leaders and food professionals, the EU Olive Oil project returned to New York to participate in the Plant Based Expo (Sept. 11-12), the benchmark event in the United States for 100% plant-based products.

The three-year EU Olive Oil program, promoted by the O.P. Associazione Olivicola Cosentina and co-financed by the European Union, was conceived with the aim of promoting the consumption of extra virgin olive oil produced in Europe. During the New York trade show, visitors had a unique opportunity to explore the distinctive characteristics of extra virgin olive oil, appreciating its organoleptic qualities and discovering its many health-promoting properties.

To better engage the audience, daily cooking demos were held, during which the oil could be tasted in various culinary preparations. These demonstrations were not only able to enhance the unique flavor of the oil, but also demonstrated its extraordinary versatility in cooking.

During the event, restaurant professionals, retailers, distributors and buyers had the opportunity to receive valuable advice on how to select a high-quality, safe and obtained through a sustainable agribusiness production system. This system respects ecological and economic principles, minimizing the use of synthetic chemicals and optimizing fertilization, in line with toxicological best practices.

“Our presence at the Plant Based Expo in New York,” says Pierpaola Occhiuto, president of the O.P. Associazione Olivicola Cosentina, “offered us the opportunity to educate American consumers about the importance of the quality of raw materials and to promote a healthy and balanced diet, in which extra virgin olive oil occupies a central role. In addition, it was an opportunity to tell the indissoluble link between olive growing and the land, a cultural and human heritage that for many European countries represents a value to be handed down from generation to generation.”

With a consumption of 365.9 thousand tons and a total value of $1,494.3 million (UN Comtrade data), the United States is confirmed as the main non-EU market for olive oil. In recent years, this product has become increasingly important on American tables, reflecting a growing trend toward a quest for high-quality foods.

www.euoliveoil.eu

The O.P. Associazione Olivicola Cosentina Soc.Coop.a.r.l. is an organization of Olive Producers in the Province of Cosenza that has been playing an active role in the Cosenza area since 1982, the date of its establishment, through a dense network of actions in support of its members.

Gathering within itself the presence of about 7100 member producers, one can easily infer the deep rootedness of the Association with the territory: all this makes it one of the most representative associations in the sector, taking care with scrupulous attention every aspect of the olive-growing activity both from the technical-productive point of view and from the economic-commercial one. The Association, in this sense, acts as an efficient intermediary and bridge between its members and the distribution channels.

Its work, in fact, moves in the light of the pursuit of a single relevant macro-objective: to enhance olive production and the careful and conscious consumption of the product, through its protection and promotion.
