ESG Corporate Governance

In response to the increasing number of legislative initiatives and desire on the part of our clients to implement more responsible business practices, Dillon Eustace established a multi-disciplinary cross department ESG team that ensures our clients receive comprehensive guidance in respect of ESG governance matters. As ESG considerations increasingly become a pressure point, our ESG team works closely with our clients to ensure they are on top of their legislative and disclosure requirements and help them actively manage reputational risk.

Across our practice groups, we have been advising our clients on ESG governance-related risks, disclosure requirements and compliance matters over recent years.
