TT Talk - April 2026: Load boards and the changing risk environment
About this episode
This episode discusses the role of load boards in road freight brokerage and the associated risks.
Load boards are now central to road freight brokerage, offering speed, visibility, and flexible access to capacity, but their openness has also increased exposure to fraud, cargo theft, and operational risk. Careful assessment of when they are used, strict control over shared information, and clear governance and training are essential to balance efficiency with security.
