Businesses across all sectors are under increasing pressure to make corporate disclosures regarding the impact of their operations on climate change, sustainability and human rights. Regulators globally are focusing on implementing and enforcing ESG disclosure rules following calls from investors and other stakeholders for the provision of more detailed, consistent and reliable reporting frameworks. 

Businesses operating across multiple regions face the additional challenge of navigating and reconciling competing regulatory and legislative regimes. 

With a strong framework in place, and a clear understanding of voluntary and mandatory reporting requirements, businesses will be in a much better position to be able to identify and mitigate any areas of litigation and greenwashing risk. Our Climate and Greenwashing Disputes Hub provides more guidance.

We work with clients to help identify and understand their existing reporting requirements and in relation to key regulatory ESG developments coming down the line (including the EU Taxonomy, CSRD, CSDDD and ISSB).
