Ropes & Gray Podcasts

In December 2019, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) published a report in relation to undue short-term pressure on companies. In this Ropes & Gray podcast—the latest in a series of podcasts on ESG and corporate social responsibility issues—asset management partner Eve Ellis will provide an overview of the ESMA report and analyze key issues addressed in the report, such as the need for greater institutional investor engagement; amending existing EU legislation to address ESG disclosures; and reducing the focus on short-term investment pressure to help companies meet sustainability goals.
