Clifford Chance
The climate emergency and imperative social issues have catalysed significant regulatory and structural changes in markets, positioning Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") at the top of the board agenda.
We provide support as businesses pursue the opportunities presented by the exponential growth of sustainable finance and investment opportunities, action on emissions, climate tech, innovation and infrastructure to facilitate the energy transition, and the promotion of human rights, talent and diversity in the workforce across businesses and supply chains.
Core to business resilience in a time of change, are corporate governance frameworks that support coherent management of the opportunities and risks associated with a just transition to a carbon neutral or negative future. We advise clients internationally and locally as they incorporate ESG into business strategies and implement ESG in operations, supply chains and business relationships throughout value chains.
We support businesses as they seek to transition to net zero and invest in new clean or low carbon businesses or products.
We provide advice on comprehensive ESG management, implementing net zero strategies, identifying risks and obligations such an increasing reporting disclosure and due diligence requirements on ESG matters, to assistance with litigation, dispute and reputation risks arising from ESG, where effective stakeholder engagement is increasingly paramount.
Our team is on hand to enable your business transition and to protect and create your sustainable growth.
