Navigating the tariff turbulence: how Consilio’s Global Trade Contracts Solution helps mitigate contractual risks

Global trade is entering another period of major disruption. With new tariffs being introduced across a range of imported goods, the impact on international business is both immediate and far-reaching. For corporations managing large volumes of cross-border agreements, this volatility is creating urgent contractual challenges: identifying financial exposure, reassessing key terms, and managing remediation at speed and scale.

Recent shifts in global trade policy have resulted in approximately $4 trillion in imports being affected, a 596% increase since 2020. That level of change doesn’t just affect supply chain logistics, it creates legal and financial risk across thousands of active agreements. Clauses tied to pricing, taxes, and payment terms may now carry hidden cost exposure or require urgent renegotiation.

Legal teams are under growing pressure to assess these risks quickly and efficiently. But with limited resources and large contract volumes, manual review is often too slow and too expensive to keep up.

Consilio’s Global Trade Contracts Solution brings together expert legal talent, AI-powered contract analysis, and automated workflows to help clients manage this challenge with speed and precision.

With Consilio’s support, clients can:

• Reduce contract remediation timelines by 40 to 60 percent
• Save up to 90 percent in billable hours
• Prioritize high-risk agreements for renegotiation
• Gain visibility into financial exposure across their contract portfolio
• Integrate seamlessly with existing CLM systems and workflows

It’s a combined human expertise and technology approach. Experienced legal professionals trained in international trade contracts conduct structured reviews, while our technology accelerates insight generation and automates repeatable tasks. The result is faster response, better risk visibility, and a more cost-effective path to compliance and control.

As global trade continues to shift, the risks buried in contracts cannot be ignored. Consilio’s Global Trade Contracts Solution gives legal and procurement teams the tools they need to act quickly, decisively, and at scale.
