ESG - Environmental, Social and Governance

ESG is a key priority for our firm. As consumer, industry, and political priorities and challenges are evolving, we are here to support and advise our clients in this dynamic area. In the face of significant environmental, social and governance challenges ("ESG"), regulators at various levels are extensively stepping in to guide society towards a more sustainable future. Consequently, ESG has become a key factor in consumer and corporate decision-making processes. The ubiquity of ESG makes the topic indispensable on companies' priority lists.
