Environment, Governance and Sustainability (ESG)

We are convinced that as a business law firm we play a key role in promoting social responsibility and sustainability.

Hence, we adopted the Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) standards as part of our ADN and integrated our ESG transactional, compliance and litigation capabilities in one single ESG practice area to advise our clients on:

  • the adoption of ESG standards,
  • the implementation of financing operations and offerings linked to sustainability,
  • the development of compliance mechanisms to identify, mitigate and manage their exposure to ESG risks and contingencies, and
  • the representation of our clients in ESG conflicts and litigation.

Casos de éxito

ESG is now a key differentiator in financing and capital markets transactions. Our team has been involved in some of the most innovative transactions in the market. In these transactions, we have advised clients on the adoption of ESG standards and the preparation of documentation for financing and issuance in line with international standards such as LMA's Green Loan Principles and the 2018 Green Bond Principles.

For example, we participated in the first issuance of a sustainability-linked bond by an airport group (OMA), the first social bond by a microfinance institution (Compartamos), one of the first green bonds issued by a housing company (Consorcio ARA), one of the first sustainability-linked bonds issued in Latin America by a non-bank financial institution (Mega), one of the first green loans in Mexico by a global retailer (Ikea), and the first green loan issued by a transportation infrastructure company (RCO).

Similarly, we are participating in collaboration with IDOM, S.A. de C.V. on the Effective Governance Project of the Lithium Industry in Mexico, and we are also leading the project for the Accompaniment of Regulation related to Mexico's Sustainable Taxonomy for CONSAR.
