About

Provided by Gide Loyrette Nouel

We work in all areas where there are issues concerning compliance with new ESG regulations, legal risks or opportunities linked to ESG.

Our support covers environmental aspects, duty of care, sustainable finance, mergers/ acquisitions and investments, corporate governance, non-financial communication and commercial and advertising communication.​

Comprising specialists from the firm's various areas of expertise, our multidisciplinary practice dedicated to ESG issues is organised to advise companies, financial players, executives and legal departments on contractual and transactional aspects, relations with stakeholders and supervisory authorities, and pre-litigation and litigation.​

Thanks to our Brussels office, we can provide effective monitoring and advocacy to keep abreast of changes in EU regulations and interpret the texts. Our network of foreign offices and partners also gives us a global view of ESG issues.
