Ep. 27 – Deregulation Nation: Simplify, Comply or Just Sigh?

LISTEN TO THE EPISODE 27 OF OUR PODCAST

ABSTRACT

In out latest wrap-up of what to watch in sustainability and ESG (so much to choose from!), Sasja and James distill the ramificaitons of the current deluge of regulatory rollbacks and simplification efforts to tease out ways forward. Starting with the implications of the EU’s Omnibus package and what it means for big and mid-sized companies alike. That’s in the context of research showing just 36 companies account for half of global emissions. Plus: how does the financial industry fit into this picture at a time when the Net Zero Banking Alliance is considering watering down its climate commitments? And why are French ministers railing against ESG investing in the name of greater defence spending?
