8.3 The Continuing Impact of ESG's Evolution

ESG has continued to rise in importance, driven by regulators' continuing changes in disclosure, institutional investors' screens, and lawmaking and guidance at the federal, state, and local levels. Boards and senior executives are under pressure to put more oversight on human capital and align corporate remuneration schemes with stakeholder interests which ensure diversity from the top down. This panel, will provide an update on the status of ESG regulation, legislation, and investor sentiment, explain how ESG considerations are impacting equity award design and proxy disclosures, and discuss the practical implications for equity compensation professionals. Attend this session to hear the latest on ESG!
