ACC Foundation: The DEI in ESG

Sponsored by Hinshaw & Culberston LLP

ESG is top of mind for businesses and, consequently, their counsel. Once a business gets past “what” ESG is, it still is faced with “how” to do it. That is further complicated by an ever-growing patchwork of regulatory frameworks at the international, federal, state and even municipal levels; anti-ESG efforts underway at both the federal and state levels; and a rise in greenwashing enforcement actions and litigation. This presentation will look at what ESG is—including, in particular, intersections with DEI—and what counsel can do to help businesses get through the “what” and “how” of ESG.
