Discover how to protect your ecommerce business from recent developments in compliance and upcoming trends in the field
When selling into new markets, compliance is one of the most complex obstacles a company will face. From data privacy laws to export rules and regulations, no two countries have the same compliance regulations. Rules change constantly, and each region has its own risks and nuanced considerations.
Between data privacy regulations like Brazil’s Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) and security regulations like the EU’s Revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2), global compliance trends can be overwhelming. But you’re not alone. Finding the right partner can help you stay compliant, and keep both your business and customers safe.
In the fifth episode in Digital River’s Commerce Passport webinar series, Mike French is joined by Keith Pires (Born Group), Maggie Lassack (Polaris) and Julia Rea (Digital River). Together, they revealed some of the most pertinent compliance trends throughout the world today, and showed what it takes to expand into new markets in a safe and regulatory compliant way that fosters success.
