Sustainability Asia: The SEC’s new taskforce on climate change and ESG

We have launched a new video series – Sustainability Asia. Each week, David Milligan and Nick Merritt, partners in our Hong Kong and Singapore offices, speak to colleagues and clients from across the region about why sustainability matters, how it will shape our markets and what it means for business in Asia.

In this video, Nick talks to Kevin Harnisch, head of Regulation, Investigations, Securities and Compliance in the US, about the SEC’s new taskforce on climate change and ESG, which is expected to be active in ensuring the accuracy, quality and completeness of ESG disclosures, and the relevance of this to businesses based in Asia.
