Mannheimer Swartling's Corporate Sustainability and Risk Management practice group offers consultative services on sustainability issues related to business law. Mannheimer Swartling views sustainability as an integrated, natural and value-creating part of our consultations in all business law practice areas. Corporate Sustainability and Risk Management is an overarching practice group, drawing on the firm's combined business law competence to provide consultation on sustainability issues. We also work actively with other practice groups to integrate sustainability awareness in all the firm's practice areas.
We assist our clients in complying with applicable regulations, managing risks and business opportunities based on the four main areas of the UN's Global Compact: human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. Our advice combines regulatory compliance with overall strategic advice on sustainability, including compliance with international guidelines and frameworks such as the UN's Global Compact, the OECD's guidelines for multinational companies, the UN's guiding principles for companies and human rights and the global targets for sustainable development as well as industry-specific guidelines. This integrated approach enables our clients to ensure regulatory compliance, to manage risks, to meet stakeholder expectations, to act in line with their own values and to achieve long-term value creation.
In addition to thorough knowledge on sustainability issues, the lawyers in the Corporate Sustainability and Risk Management practice group have experience from other practice groups and industries and a strong commercial focus. Our sustainability advice is further enhanced by Mannheimer Swartling's experience in non-European markets. Through our presence in and experience of e.g. Russia and China, we have gained special expertise and are able to act and advise our clients on how to act in important, and often complex foreign markets. Where we do not have offices, we work with our network of partners.
Our advice in the practice group Corporate Sustainability and Risk Management is divided into three main areas: (i) sustainability in the day-to-day operations, (ii) sustainability in transactions and (iii) investigations and crisis management.
