What this session will cover
This panel will explore how GCs in the energy, extractive, and infrastructure industries can navigate crises effectively and protect ISDS interests in these sectors as we face increasing regulatory changes, geopolitical turmoil, urgent climate issues and ESG considerations in 2025.
The role of the general counsel is becoming increasingly challenging as we move into 2025. With regulatory changes, geopolitical turmoil, and urgent climate issues, the landscape for legal and compliance professionals in the energy, extractive and infrastructure industries is more complex than ever. This panel will address the critical intersection of crisis management, investor-State dispute settlement (ISDS), and investor-State mediation, focusing on how these mechanisms can be leveraged to navigate crises effectively and protect investor and State interests in these sectors. Additionally, the discussion will explore the impact of environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations on crisis management strategies, highlighting the importance of integrating ESG principles to ensure sustainable and responsible business practices.
