2015 Executive Education
DEVELOPING PRODUCT AND BRAND PROTECTION PROGRAMS
Counterfeit Product Risk Assessment and Mitigation
Many companies have found themselves with either
little or no understanding of how to assess the potential risk to their products from counterfeiting, illegal
diversion, tampering, or misbranding. All are forms of
fraud and pose risks to the products, customers,
brands, and companies that own them. This course will
help expose the mysteries of risk assessment and help
you to lay out a risk assessment program and mitigation
strategy for your company. Additionally, it will help
you to categorize risks
and mitigation action
plans and will illustrate how to move
from a reactive to a
proactive product and
brand risk protection
program.
