Environment, sustainability and governance (ESG) is a key focus area for our firm and we believe it’s about creating a tangible, practical plan that achieves real results. Success is not only about ticking boxes on climate change, diversity and disclosures alone. It’s about embedding these principles across businesses right from investment to sustainable innovation.

Our lawyers advise clients across all sectors on ESG risks and compliance measures, helping businesses manage their risks more effectively while becoming more competitive in the market. We have extensive knowledge of sustainable performance-related laws and regulations, standards and initiatives and are able to advise clients on fulfilling their corporate ESG commitments.
