We have kicked off a new CS3D webinar series focused on the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CS3D / CSDDD) as it impacts the financial services.
Listen to a recording of our first webinar in this new series in which we:
- recapped on the timing of the remaining milestones including national transposition and phase-in of the obligations;
- signposted some of the challenging issues and unanswered questions in the due diligence obligation;
- discussed the challenges of the model contractual clauses; and
- worked through some flow diagrams to understand what the upstream and downstream value chain may be comprised of, and practically what that means (and doesn't mean) for you.
Do reach out to any of our team if you have more questions on these issues.
In 2024, the series will include two more webinars, in which we look at:
- the CS3D transition plan obligation - catch up on this here; and
- how CS3D interacts with other due diligence regimes, both at EU level (e.g. the EU's Deforestation Regulation) and national regimes, coming on 17 December 2024.
