ESG Sustainability Advisory
What We Do
Our ESG and Sustainability Advisory practice advises companies, investors, and institutions on environmental, social, and governance considerations arising across corporate operations, transactions, and investment activities. We support clients in navigating evolving ESG‑related regulatory expectations, stakeholder requirements, and market‑driven sustainability frameworks.
Our work includes advising on sustainability‑related compliance, governance structures, and the development and implementation of ESG‑aligned policies and strategies. We also advise on ESG aspects of corporate transactions, financing arrangements, and investment decisions. The practice combines regulatory insight, transactional experience, and a practical understanding of sustainability issues to deliver advice that supports long‑term value creation. Our work in this area has been recognised through industry awards, reflecting the firm’s ongoing focus on responsible and forward‑looking legal advisory services.
How We Can Assist You
We advise clients on a broad range of ESG and sustainability‑related matters, including ESG due diligence in connection with corporate transactions and investments, sustainability gap analyses, and the review and enhancement of internal policies and governance frameworks. Our work also includes assisting clients in the preparation and review of sustainability‑related disclosures and reports, aligned with applicable regulatory requirements and recognised ESG frameworks.
We support clients in structuring and implementing sustainable finance initiatives, as well as in obtaining sector‑specific ESG‑related certifications and compliance approvals. By working closely with management teams, boards, and other advisers, we provide clear, practical guidance that helps clients integrate ESG considerations into decision‑making, manage risk, and respond effectively to evolving regulatory and stakeholder expectations.
