Sustainable Investing and Impact Funds

Ogier’s dedicated Sustainable Investing and Impact Funds practice assists clients in structuring, operating and investing in funds which contribute to environmental and social objectives, include ESG characteristics in their investment strategy, and funds that look to achieve impact.

Ogier was the first offshore law firm to establish a dedicated Sustainable Investing and Impact Funds practice and our experienced lawyers are thought leaders in the sustainable investment space. Many of our practitioners take part in shaping the responses of our jurisdictions to assist in sustainable investment and ESG initiatives in the finance industry through involvement in governmental, regulatory and industry groups.

Whether an asset manager or asset owner is looking to evaluate ESG risk during their due diligence process, seeking to identify sustainable investment opportunities or seeking to invest assets into enterprises creating deep social and environmental change, Ogier can help.

We can advise from both the legal and regulatory perspective with our team of experienced lawyers who work closely with our experts at Ogier Global's Sustainable Investment Consulting. We are in a unique position to be able to offer cross-jurisdictional advice covering each of BVI, Cayman, Guernsey, Ireland, Jersey, and Luxembourg laws.

At Ogier we recognise that there is no one-size fits all approach when it comes to sustainable investing and we provide tailored advice according to the needs of our clients.
