  • Summary

  • Harry Hecht and Moira Thompson Oliver, joined by Michael Arnold, Partner at Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, reflect on the evolving ESG landscape following recent elections in the US, UK, and EU. They explore whether ESG policy has become clearer or more opaque, given the varying political contexts. The discussion highlights the persistent transatlantic divergence in ESG priorities, with the US showing signs of potential pullback, while the EU and UK maintain stronger momentum, albeit with certain challenges.

    The conversation delves into critical developments shaping the ESG agenda, including the EU elections and then Draghi Report's potential to spur innovation and competitiveness, the implications of US federal and state policy divergence post-election, and how the EU 'Omnibus' instrument might simplify disclosure requirements and rein in over-reporting. They also offer insights on how companies can effectively respond to these trends.
