How can financial institutions prepare for compliance with the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD)? https://lnkd.in/dSp-zXme CSDDD is requiring financial institutions (FIs) to change their approach to human rights and environmental due diligence within their business. In practice, banks, asset managers, and others must know and show that they manage the impacts of their operations on their workforce, on the individuals they serve, and on the environment. BSR’s Paloma Muñoz Quick, Kindra Mohr, Esq., and Bridgett Fisher discuss the implications CSDDD will have on the finance industry and how FIs should prepare for downstream due diligence in compliance with the law. #sustainablefinance #csddd #compliance #duediligence

Four tips to help businesses in the US navigate the current blowback on DEI programs and sustain their commitment to advancing a more equitable society: https://lnkd.in/e-k4gjzz Businesses are facing heightened scrutiny and increased expectations when considering how to respond to social issues. Meanwhile, many commitments to DEI are beginning to wane, with DEI roles and budgets being cut from company agendas and Chief Diversity Officers leaving their roles, citing obstruction and exhaustion. DEI is not an isolated effort—it is an integral part of a broader business commitment to social justice and other equity-driven imperatives. BSR Co-Director, Center for Business and Social Justice Jennifer Stark discusses ways companies can continue to advance social justice and DEI practices in this challenging environment. Download CSBJ’s Social Justice Guide for Business to learn actionable insights for companies to navigate these complex expectations: https://lnkd.in/d-ZyUKtZ #sustainablebusiness #DEI #humanresources #publicaffairs #externalaffairs
