Summary

The Conference Board held a briefing for members in collaboration with the law firm, Hughes Hubbard & Reed.

This briefing focused the European Commission’s draft directive on “Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence” that, if adopted, will impose significant new obligations on companies operating in the EU relating to human rights and the environmentincluding companies incorporated in the US that have a relatively modest level of revenue in the EU.

We were joined by experts from Hughes Hubbard and Reed with a panel of practitioners from French companies who have already implemented due diligence programs under the similar French Law “Duty of Vigliance” to share their experience.
