Greenwashing and ESG litigation: a new era of sustainability risk management

EY, 1 More London Place, London, SE1 2AF

About this Event

Businesses face complex and rapidly evolving demands from customers, shareholders and regulators in respect of their sustainability strategies. For many businesses, the alignment of people, planet and profit remains challenging.

The focus on greenwashing remains – with regulators, litigators and activists concentrating on the “say-do gap” between sustainability targets and sustainable delivery.
The backdrop makes issues more complicated: practical technology and economic challenges in delivering on commitments, inconsistency in data and policy – and a rising wave of litigation from the anti-ESG groups.

Join EY to discuss the current challenges in communicating about sustainability and how firms are managing the promotion of their strategy and goals whilst implementing processes and controls to mitigate greenwashing risk.
