Sustainable finance

Our law firm helps you identify risks and opportunities in the area of sustainable finance

Sustainable finance is no longer just a niche. Investors and lenders are increasingly considering companies’ environmental, social and governance (ESG) credentials when making investment decisions.

They favour transactions, projects and initiatives that support economic growth while also protecting the environment and treating people with dignity and respect.

Examples of sustainable economic development include building on brownfield sites to reduce environmental impact, creating sustainable supply chains and developing zero-waste, low-carbon ‘circular economy’ products.

We have deep expertise in banking, insurance, asset management, pension funds, regulatory, capital markets and derivatives. Combined with our global specialists in regulatory, finance, corporate and energy, we guide clients through the maze of sustainable finance and responsible investment.

As a sustainable finance law firm, our clients include banks, insurers, trustees, investment or fund managers, advisers, brokers and fintech founders, all of whom benefit from our multidisciplinary approach.

Please contact any of our International Sustainable finance lawyers to find out how we can help you.
