Baker McKenzie’s fifth annual report, The Year Ahead: Global Disputes Forecast 2022, addresses key trends in the evolving disputes landscape. The report includes a new survey of 600 senior legal and risk leaders from large companies across the world.
Amy Greer, a partner from our New York office and co-chair of our North America Financial Regulation and Enforcement practice, and Marc Thorley, a partner from our Dispute Resolution practice in London, talk about the key findings relevant for financial institutions. The episode examines the factors driving the increase in disputes and emerging concerns related to liabilities. It also covers litigation around digital transformation, tax, ‘business-as-usual’ conduct, and new environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards.
