Listen "Best ESG defence is a good offence"
Episode Synopsis
In this edition of Business Law Focus, host Evan Pickworth speaks to partners at Webber Wentzel, Sarah McKenzie and Maria Philippides about increasing public and regulatory scrutiny of the ESG claims being made by companies. Recent litigation is a salient lesson in risks posed by those who make misleading claims. There has been no direct or explicit greenwashing litigation in South Africa or ESG-related enforcement action by South African regulators, but South African legal and regulatory laws create the platform and cater for the possibility of greenwashing claims and litigation.
