SAYARI, which supports detection of trade transaction and corporate ownership risks, supports Mazda in strengthening its global supply chain risk management system

Sayari Japan Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Hirokazu Kusaba; hereinafter referred to as Sayari), which supports the visualization of supply chain risks worldwide and trade compliance, announced that Mazda Corporation (Headquarters: Fuchu-cho, Aki-gun, Hiroshima; Representative Director, President and CEO: Masahiro Moro; hereinafter referred to as Mazda) has introduced "SAYARI GRAPH," a platform provided by Sayari that enables investigation, screening, and monitoring of corporate ownership, trade transaction relationships, and sanctions/export control risks.

Accuracy in responding to diversifying risks that affect corporate sustainability

The automotive industry is composed of extensive and complex supply chain networks that operate on a global scale, and the inherent risks are constantly diversifying. In particular, corporate responsibility for human rights, the environment, and other areas is increasingly being questioned not only for direct activities by the company itself but also for the stance taken towards each company involved in the supply chain.

Furthermore, in the current situation where geopolitical risks are manifesting in various areas, cases of searching for alternative procurement sources to respond to emergencies are anticipated, increasing the need for rapid investigation using fresh primary data.

Against this backdrop, supplier due diligence requires compliance with increasingly stringent global trade compliance standards and integrated risk management, and the accuracy of its implementation has become a critical management issue that affects corporate sustainability.

Mazda strengthens supply chain risk management

Mazda, with a high proportion of overseas sales, has been working to grasp the diverse risks inherent in its own and its group's entire supply chain and to improve the accuracy of investigations in order to comply with increasingly stringent global trade compliance standards. In this context, after considering methods to visualize corporate relationships and trade flows within the supply chain quickly and accurately on a global level, they decided to introduce Sayari's "SAYARI GRAPH" platform, which detects risks from corporate ownership and trade transaction relationships.

The main deciding factors for Mazda's introduction of "SAYARI GRAPH" are as follows:

Overwhelming data volume and accuracy

Access to over 11.7 billion records of corporate, import/export, ownership, and risk data based on evidence.

Multifaceted risk analysis and visualization

Equipped with functions to visualize corporate control relationships (information on beneficial owners), upstream supply chains from Tier 2 onwards, and the flow of goods from export destinations onwards on a global level. This allows for the rapid identification of hidden risks such as connections with sanctioned/regulated entities, forced labor, ESG, and reputational risks.

Trust from government agencies and major corporations

Implementation track record with numerous government agencies and major corporations in various countries, including its use by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in managing regulations, including the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA).

Through the utilization of "SAYARI GRAPH," Mazda aims to build a sound and smooth supply chain by visualizing risks across its entire group and implementing appropriate and precise risk hedging.
