“AI and sustainability - cure or curse?”
While AI can help resolve data issues in sustainable investing, it can create problems such as information breaches and inherent bias in data.

Initially approved by the Mexican Senate in September 2018, Convention 098 (“the Convention”) of the International Labour Organization (ILO) – on the Right to Organize and Collective Bargaining – is set to formally become fully effective in Mexico on November 23, 2019.
The Convention, one of the so-called ILO fundamental conventions, provides a set of guiding principles on collective bargaining, protection against discrimination based on union affiliation, and rights of employees to organize.
Although some of these principles were previously embodied in the Mexican labor and employment legal framework (that has been historically regarded to be markedly pro-employee), the formal entry into force of the Convention in Mexico supplements a set of amendments to Mexico’s Federal Labor Law enacted this past May that, among other things, sought to further regulate and protect Mexican unions. See our publication on these amendments.
The formal entry into force of the Convention marks the latest development in labor and employment regulation in Mexico, following a substantial overhaul in late 2012 and the set of amendments from earlier this year. However, it seems that the changes in the Mexican labor and employment legal framework are set to continue under the new Federal Administration, as a very controversial proposal to further regulate (and in some cases, criminalize) employment subcontracting and outsourcing is being discussed in the Mexican Congress.
Norton Rose Fulbright will closely track new developments and provide further updates as necessary.

We have had a new pension tax regime since April 6, 2024. The underlying legislation is convoluted and almost impossible for a lay person to follow, so you would be forgiven for thinking there was a lot to study. At the very granular level that is true, and your scheme administrators will have a lot of detailed changes to make to systems. However if you zoom out a bit, in many ways life hasn’t changed. We’ve done the poring over densely amended tax legislation for you. Here are the highlights: five things to know and three things to do.
