What EY can do for you
Our lawyers and legal and compliance departments within our clients’ businesses are uniquely situated at the nexus of law, policy, investor relations, risk management and business operations. Increasingly, we are being called on to play a more proactive role in protecting and creating value across all parts of the organization by helping drive the agenda for the business. This is causing some businesses to ask and expect law and compliance departments to expand their involvement in daily business operations and manage non-legal risks in areas lacking clear regulatory guidance. Already facing concerns around talent, workload and budget, the growing volume and complexity of sustainability work is an additional challenge for many law and compliance departments.
EY Oceania Law multidisciplinary teams include legal, project management and technology professionals who are at the forefront of regulatory developments and well placed to help clients across industries with their growing sustainability needs. A full complement of sustainability legal services is available to law and compliance departments and business teams more broadly and can be customized to help address the highly differentiated sustainability priorities and challenges of your organization.
