Environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations continue to impact businesses as the legal and regulatory requirements change and ESG expectations of investors, consumers and employees evolve. Now more than ever, investors include ESG criteria in their investment assessments and valuation decisions, and business leaders consider their organizations’ impact on people and communities. As customers focus more on social costs and ESG reputations when making purchasing decisions, the plaintiffs’ bar is actively policing ESG-related claims, threatening class actions for greenwashing.
