Are CEOs, the Board and Companies meant to maximize profits and shareholder value, or is it to do good and play the role of social activist? Are institutional investors and fund managers supposed to maximize returns for their investors or try to have a positive impact on the world?

ESG and Sustainability concerns are now playing a prominent role in how companies around the world operate, and how investors allocate their capital. Executives and investors have come to terms with the fact that paying attention to the environment, diversity and inclusion, social responsibility and sustainability is not only imperative in the current landscape but can also have a positive impact on shareholder value and returns.

The Deal’s Corporate ESG & Sustainability Forum taking place on March 7, 2023 at the Union League Club in New York City presents a full day of education and networking exploring what companies and investors are doing to create a more sustainable, environmentally friendly and socially responsible world, while adjusting to continued increases in expectations and standards.    

Taking place in New York City, this full day, in-person event explores how to navigate the opportunities, obstacles and risks in M&A and dealmaking.

New this year: The Deal Economy features a morning of panel discussions, an afternoon of unique breakout sessions and sector specific roundtable discussions along with increased networking opportunities topped off with The Deal Economy Cocktail Reception.

To see the agenda and speaker roster, please visit The Deal Economy: Predictions and Perspectives site.

The M&A market has survived the current volatile environment of global and geopolitical uncertainty in robust health. Cross-border deals and disruptive transactions continue to prevail, as shareholders back smart and strategic deals and companies continue to search for the technologies and capabilities needed to be competitive. The passing of U.S. tax reform will have a profound impact on companies and their M&A strategy, while private equity firms continue to look for the right targets on which to deploy their stockpiled capital.

The Deal Economy conference explores the most effective strategies for deals and transactions, focusing on the opportunities and challenges facing dealmakers in 2019.

Keynote Discussions Preview:

* Lori Heinel, Executive Vice President, Deputy Global Chief Investment Officer, State Street Global Advisors will discuss how a large, long-term investor views activist investors.
