SUMMARY:Due diligence and disclosure in an online world\, including level
  of due diligence by underwriters including ESG aspects 
DESCRIPTION:Covid-19 and the remote prospectus drafting and verification 
 sessions that it promoted\, have affected the way in which part of the l
 ess formal diligence process is done. In some jurisdictions nothing may 
 have changed\, but in others the changes have been profound – and they s
 eem here to stay. Is this good\, bad or indifferent? An expert panel wil
 l consider whether the market has merely developed a more efficient way 
 of working\, or whether standards risk being eroded. The panel will anal
 yse some of the new practices from an issuer and from an underwriter per
 spective\, and an attempt will be made to formulate practical guidelines
  that safeguard the interests of investors while retaining efficiency ga
 ins made during the pandemic.
