SUMMARY:Virtual CLE Program: ESG Disclosure Risk in Texas
DESCRIPTION:\n1.00 Hr CLE Pending\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Forum and Locke Lord invite you to join us for a Virtual CLE Program on Tuesday, March 8th. ESG prioritization and transparency are the new shiny objects making the rounds up and down both Main Street and Wall Street.  As such, capital market disclosure risk over ESG frameworks is a fact of life, and it can be further complicated by competing demands and messaging.  On one hand, federal securities regulators have signaled increased scrutiny of investor disclosures in both the public and private markets, and particularly on ESG issues and risks.  While on the other hand, Texas law makers have banned state entities from doing business with ESG-focused market players that allegedly discriminate against gun makers and oil and gas companies, and in particular, banks vying to underwrite municipal securities in Texas are required to publicly certify their commitment to not harming guns or fossil fuel production.  Proactively and consistently threading the needle between ESG-focused SEC disclosure demand and countervailing Lone Star threats to “boycott the boycotters” is critical to risk mitigation for companies doing business in Texas.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGold Underwriter Host:\n\nAt the request of our in-house members, the Forum is offering high quality CLE programming hosted by our Gold Underwriters to help members secure their annual CLE requirements.\nProspective Members Welcome!\nIf you have questions, contact the Forum at info@tgcf.org ( mailto:info@tgcf.org?subject=TGCF%20HOU%20Q3%20Question )\n
