Ogier has been ranked one of Asia's Top 15 ESG Law Firms by Asian Legal Business (ALB).

The inaugural ranking spotlights law firms that have delivered exceptional legal services in the ESG and sustainable investment space by helping clients navigate the complex regulatory landscape, and by playing a vital role in ensuring companies can effectively integrate ESG considerations into their decision-making processes.

"It's fantastic to be ranked as one of the top ESG firms in Asia alongside a host of other firms making strides in this area. Clients are having to consider an ever-expanding range of sustainable investment and ESG considerations, driven by regulation as well as investor demand and strategic opportunities. This is a fast-moving landscape and we're delighted to be able to provide clients with crucial guidance and the support needed to implement and deliver on their sustainable investing mandates and ESG-related obligations," said Kate Hodson, Ogier's Head of ESG (Legal).

"At Ogier, we –recognise the importance of being a credible partner for our clients who also have ESG objectives."

The firm has committed to Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and was the first offshore law firm to gain membership of the Net Zero Lawyers Alliance (NZLA). As part of its commitment to diversity and inclusion (D&I), Ogier was also the first law firm in its jurisdictions to voluntarily publish pay gap data and the first law firm to publish a global pay gap report.

In terms of services, Ogier has been advising on a growing range of ESG-related transactions across its service lines, including Banking and Finance, Funds, Corporate and Private Wealth. These have included green bond offerings, social bonds, sustainability linked notes and loans and the incorporation of impact objectives into private wealth structures, amongst others.

"We have been involved in a number of innovative transactions such as assisting the International Finance Corporation on the launch of a US$100 million 10-year social bond - the Philippines' first ever social bond in the healthcare sector," said Kate. "We've also explored areas where we can have a positive impact. One initiative we are very proud of is the Talent4Impact programme, an annual fellowship providing practical work experience in sustainable investment. "
