Andrew Sherman a Panelist for Deal Lawyers Webinar "ESG Considerations in M&A"

Andrew Sherman, partner in Seyfarth's Corporate department, is serving as a panelist for the Deal Lawyers webinar "ESG Considerations in M&A" on April 8, 2021.

ESG considerations are increasingly "front and center" for both buyers and sellers in M&A transactions. Buyers may enhance their own ESG performance through synergistic transactions, and sellers with positive ESG stories may enhance their potential valuations. But there are also ESG-related risks that need to be factored into the due diligence and negotiation process.

The panel will discuss:

• Assessing ESG Risks and Opportunities
• ESG & Fiduciary Duties
• ESG Opportunities in Transaction Financing
• ESG Due Diligence and Risk Mitigation
• Negotiating ESG-Related Deal Terms
• Post-Closing Considerations
