As part of the 2026 edition of the M&A guide published by Global Legal Insights, our team contributed a chapter on ESG considerations in the M&A context.

The chapter focuses on current legal developments and market practice affecting ESG due diligence in M&A transactions. It discusses ESG diligence requirements in select markets, and highlights certain risk management concerns and benefits for businesses of robust ESG diligence, as a means of both value creation and risk mitigation. The chapter also includes discussion ESG metrics and ratings, and a consideration of latest greenwashing developments.
