GRC – Governance, Risk & Compliance

Companies are under increasing pressure to be more ethical, sustainable and climate-friendly. Failure to comply with environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria can have significant legal, reputational and financial consequences.

It’s not just about compliance - sustainable organisations are also likely to be more resilient to future disruption.

Our global team has extensive knowledge and experience of the real-world implications of ESG. We work alongside clients to offer practical advice on sustainability strategy, supply chain, business ethics, social justice concerns, employment practices and board diversity and accountability.

CMS lawyers cover the broadest possible spectrum of commercial and legal risk in large and profitable contentious, regulatory and transactional matters.

As a governance, risk and compliance law firm, our expertise spans financial crime, employment, financial services enforcement, competition, data protection, health and safety, environment, sanctions and professional and clinical risks.
