Helping you succeed in tomorrow's world

I have a keen interest in Decarbonisation and wider 'ESG' issues. In particular, how occupational pension schemes grapple with the challenges that climate change poses to them, taking into account the climate change governance and reporting duties that all schemes will soon have under pensions legislation. 

Decarbonisation is part of Osborne Clarke's 3D client strategy, and presents both challenges and opportunities for all of our clients.
