Mind the Gap!

Mind the Gap! How to Meet ESG Disclosure Requirements & Expectations in the U.S. and the EU

ESG reporting has greatly increased in recent years, with most companies around the globe reporting on some facet of their social and environmental impacts. Despite this increase, there has not been uniformity in requirements or expectations across different regions. Notably, the U.S. and the EU have taken diverging approaches, with the former’s driven by investors and stakeholders, and the latter’s driven by legislation. In this session, panelists will discuss how to reconcile the differing approaches, how to satisfy multiple stakeholders, and collaborate across business functions to achieve ESG goals.

Role of the Corporate Entity

Role of the Corporate Entity: The License to Operate & Leadership Expectations in a New World

The concepts around a company’s social license to operate are not new. Legitimacy, credibility, and trust are the pillars of such social license. Merely following regulatory requirements has been insufficient for a company to gain public support for its operations for some time now. The stakes and expectations continue to rise. As confidence remains low in governments and the media to establish a trusted voice across society, more people look to businesses and their leadership to fill the void.

The Chief Legal Officer is in a unique position of influence at the intersection of acute regulatory knowledge and a seat at the table when the business strategy is shaped. This panel will discuss the pressures and the opportunities they are seeing internally and externally to meet an increasingly complex set of expectations across diverse stakeholders.
