This panel provided insights on the evolving anti-environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) and anti-diversity, equity and inclusion (“DEI”) movements in the US, Canada and the EU. There was a comprehensive look at the nature and status of such challenges and what a defensive sustainability strategy addressing global challenges might require. The panelists addressed the question of whether shifts in the framework demand engaging with businesses or whether such efforts should be abandoned until absolutely required. Panelists included:  Emily Holland, Counsel, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP; Danielle Reyes, Partner, Holland & Knight LLP; Ryan Will, Counsel, Vinson & Elkins and Elizabeth Yazgi, Assistant General Counsel, LSTA.
