ESG and Sustainability

Environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) factors affect every company of every size. No longer a secondary consideration, it has become imperative that businesses and their investors take a proactive approach to their role as global citizens, not only out of ethical considerations, but also because it is in their financial interests.

Companies focusing on ESG are improving their longevity, financial standing, and relationships with internal and external stakeholders, which carries enormous value in today’s market. This is driving investors and executives alike to reorient their focus on ESG.  

In a global environment that increases its emphasis by the day, our integrated ESG approach is designed to help our clients navigate these ever-evolving ESG standards and add this value to their companies. Our lawyers across the globe have decades of experience in key ESG areas, including asset management, corporate governance, and sustainability, and offer a full range of services that can be tailored to any need or size.
