Global Compliance & ROI Explained
Why It Matters
Companies that delay centralized compliance strategy risk lost market access, higher fines and implementation rework; partnering with specialized providers can protect cross-border growth and deliver faster, sustainable ROI.
Summary
Speakers warn that treating country e-invoicing mandates as a last-minute cost leads to fragmented, country-by-country solutions that hinder growth and increase fines. A Basware/FT Longitude study found over half of U.S.-headquartered firms lost expansion opportunities due to late or misunderstood compliance, and U.S. companies are five times more likely than European peers to incur compliance fines. SAP provides compliant coverage for roughly 40 countries, but vendors and customers often need specialist partners like Basware to cover additional jurisdictions and to manage frequent regulatory changes. The panel stresses compliance is ongoing—mandates evolve annually—and requires configurable, dedicated platforms and the right stakeholders to capture ROI and avoid business disruption.
