This publication provides a concise review of, and
commercially focused commentary on, the latest major judicial and
legislative developments affecting the Australian construction and
infrastructure industry.
In this special edition, we have a particular focus on ESG.
The rise of ESG over the last 12 months has been driven by five
major trends: the accelerating capital flows to ESG funds and
businesses, the global drive to net zero, a move from voluntary
principles and guidelines to mandatory regulation, shifting
investor expectations and increasing shareholder activism, and a
heightened customer and employee sensitivity to environmental and
social issues.
As capital and business opportunities are increasingly flowing
to responsible businesses that are seen to hold themselves
accountable by considering their environmental and social impacts,
and governing with integrity and transparency, we continue to work
with clients to build the best ESG risk frameworks
