On 17 May 2023, in association with London International Disputes Week, we were delighted to host an ESG-focussed panel discussion as part of the LIDW theme, “Adapting to a Changing World”.
Speakers from HKA, Norton Rose Fulbright, 39 Essex Chambers, 4 New Square Chambers and Green Invesment Group discussed:
- Environmental claims now not just nuisance actions, can be hundreds of millions at least, with increasing efforts to hit the parent
- Climate Change has been talked of generally but not getting sharper in terms of specific valuation impacts
- Accelerated decommissioning, renewables not working to plan and regulatory changes mean market change
The panel was moderated by Colin Johnson, Partner, HKA and was made up of Alex Lee, Principal, Environmental and Climate Change Lead, HKA, Holly Stebbing, Partner, Norton Rose Fulbright, Amy Armitage, Counsel, Norton Rose Fulbright, Catherine Dobson, Barrister, 39 Essex Chambers, George Spalton KC, Barrister, 4 New Square Chambers and Adrian Barnes, Head of Green Analytics, Green Investment Group.
