ESG Criteria in M&A Transactions

HOT TOPIC – The assessment of a company is no longer limited to verifying its ability to generate profits, but also includes its ability to achieve ethical outcomes such as social inclusion and environmental protection. Maura Magni, President & Managing Partner of BMV, discusses the topic.

“The importance of ESG factors is continuously growing at national, European and international levels, and regulatory and legislative activity concerning their application across different sectors is steadily increasing,” writes Avv. Magni for 4cLegal.

“It is precisely within this context that the relevance attributed by all economic operators—investors, customers and entrepreneurs—to ESG criteria in M&A transactions should be understood. A company that complies with ESG standards is more attractive to investors. Compliance with ESG criteria is increasingly becoming synonymous with a company’s ‘business quality’, both in the eyes of end users and potential investors, whose objective is to make sustainable and responsible investments capable of creating value over the medium to long term.”
