Equator Principles Workshop - 17th September 2007

Registration from 14.30, networking drinks to follow from 18.00

More and more banks are now signing up to the Equator Principles, pledging to ensure that the projects they finance are developed responsibly, and reflect sound environmental management. Some banks are applying the Equator Principles to other areas of their activities.

But once you've taken the leap and signed up, what's the next step? What are the practical steps that you should be taking when applying the Equator Principles - to make sure that they're implemented to their best possible effect? As a project sponsor or a contractor, what do you have to do to ensure compliance?

Drawing on the extensive experience of Linklaters and ERM in applying Equator and IFC requirements to projects in Russia, Eastern Europe, Africa, South America and Asia, this interactive workshop will:

  • Explain the requirements of the Equator Principles 2 (EP2) with particular focus on the underlying IFC Performance Standards;
  • Using a case study, help you to identify the key questions and issues to raise and when and how these should be addressed to minimise cost and maximise financiabilty;
  • Outline how to deliver a compliant ESHIA and Action Plan, and an appropriate environmental and social management system; and
  • Discuss how to develop a loan agreement that is EP2 compliant, how some of the larger projects have addressed compliance breaches and what are the risks of project related lender litigation.

The workshop will be led by Vanessa Havard-Williams, Partner, and Global Head of Environment, Linklaters and Keryn James, Partner, ERM.
