Norton Rose Fulbright’s 2023 Annual Litigation Trends Survey indicates that environmental, social and governance (ESG) concerns are growing.
While only 2% of respondents reported ESG-related litigation in 2022, more than one-quarter of respondents (28%) said their exposure in this area had deepened and 24% expect increased exposure in the coming year. Moreover, of those concerned with class actions in the year ahead, more than one in three said ESG-related class actions stand among their greatest concerns.
