ESG Data Insights: A Case Study with Latham & Watkins, Ashurst and Landmark’s RiskHorizon
As the demand for ESG reporting grows, there is a parallel urgency for the data behind an ESG score to be understood, and presented in a clear and standardised fashion that aids understanding and provides benchmarks for improvement.
In our ESG Data event held on 24th June 2021, we brought together a world leading panel of experts who have the knowledge and experience to break down this challenge and inspire action.
In this session you will learn:
- How technologies have developed to incorporate ESG issues for transactional due diligence. Here our speaker, Paul Davies talks about the development of RiskHorizon.
- How regulatory developments are driving the need for ESG data and analysis. Our speaker Eleanor Reeves, will discuss the European Green Deal and the action plan in financing sustainable growth for achieving climate change targets in the finance industry.
