A few choice Wikileaks lies exposed by Micah Lee

" . . . while it's been clear for some time that WikiLeaks isn't the pro-transparency, pro-free speech, anti-censorship organization that it pretends to be, this latest feeble attempt at ego-driven image management is just sad. It reminds me of when WikiLeaks used legal threats to try to censor the documentary film Risk (2016) https://micahflee.com/2019/01/lies-that-wikileaks-tells-you/

D&O insurance to counter ESG litigation – new issues for insurers and policyholders
by Gunnar Larson 23 Apr '22

23 Apr '22

*Obtaining insurance coverage in this climate of activist shareholders* The evolving ESG landscape requires companies to plan for claims that did not exist just a few years ago. Shareholders are actively requiring <https://corpgov.law.harvard.edu/2021/05/29/shareholder-activism-and-esg-wha…> boards to be more transparent and responsive to ESG issues, and regulators are enforcing new disclosure requirements <https://www.reuters.com/legal/legalindustry/esg-regulatory-landscape-create…>. Sometimes disclosure alone is not enough: businesses are scrutinized by shareholders and regulatory entities for underestimating their environmental impact, or over promising their efforts to minimize climate change contributions, known as greenwashing. Even companies doing their best in ESG governance face the risk of shareholder and regulatory litigation. These risks can be addressed by directors and officers insurance coverage, which generally protects companies, their directors, managers and employees against claims for a “wrongful act.” Unless excluded as a specific type of claim, companies routinely look to their D&O policies to address shareholder claims and defray the costs of regulatory investigations. https://www.policyholderperspective.com/2022/03/articles/insurance-general/…

Mitigating Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) Risks Through D&O Insurance
by Gunnar Larson 23 Apr '22

23 Apr '22

In a recent post on the Nickel Report (“Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance: What are the Risks, Really?” <https://www.huntonnickelreportblog.com/2021/03/environmental-social-and-cor…>), our colleagues provide a thoughtful discussion of various risks, trending issues, and emerging concerns arising from environmental, social, and corporate governance (“ESG”). One key takeaway is that ESG-related activity at the federal government is just getting started and that agencies have already begun devoting substantial resources to ESG issues, like the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s recently-announced Climate and ESG task force <https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2021-42> to “develop initiatives to proactively identify ESG-related misconduct.” In addition to traditional legal liability like lawsuits or enforcement actions, ESG-related risks include risks to corporate reputation, risks associated with project financing, risks associated with lack of diversity, equity, and inclusion, risks based on lobbying, and from lack of corporate ESG coordination. Given those emerging risks, this post looks at insurance—particularly directors and officers liability insurance—as a tool to mitigate at least some potential exposures a company and its executives may face if an ESG-related issue arises. The SEC’s Climate and ESG task force is one example of increased exposure implicating D&O insurance. The purpose of the task force is to identify ESG-related misconduct by market participants. Initially, the task force will focus on identifying material gaps or misstatements in issuers’ disclosure of climate risks under existing rules, but it will also examine investment advisers’ and funds’ “ESG strategies” and related disclosure and compliance issues. While the task force is in its early days, we foresee companies and executives who come under scrutiny to seek protection under their D&O liability insurance policies for the substantial costs in cooperating with regulators during informal and formal investigations, responding to subpoenas, and defending against and resolving enforcement actions. ESG issues are also giving rise to increased litigation, from shareholder lawsuits accusing boards of failing to live up to their diversity commitment disclosures to lawsuits focusing on sourcing and supply chain risks implicating human rights and child labor issues. Other ESG-related flash points will continue to emerge as regulators focus on particular areas of concern and companies adjust corporate governance practices and policies in response. Companies should assess what these developments mean for their businesses and how they can protect themselves from potential ESG-related investigations, enforcement actions, and litigation. Unfortunately, even companies that are proactive at addressing their ESG exposure may be unable to avoid regulator or shareholder scrutiny. Accordingly, as part of their ESG strategies, companies should understand what risks are covered under their D&O insurance policies and, if needed, modify existing coverage or procure new coverage tailored to particular ESG exposures. The list of potential D&O coverage disputes over ESG issues is long, but the good news for policyholders is that D&O policies generally provide some protection against enforcement actions or government investigations. While private companies typically will enjoy broader protection for defense and indemnity in ESG-related lawsuits, public companies should ensure they are adequately protected for securities claims focused on alleged misrepresentations or misstatements in ESG-related disclosures. All policyholders, however, should understand the current limits (and sublimits), exclusions, and other limitations placed on these coverages to understand whether they are appropriately covered for emerging ESG risks. As the Biden Administration continues to develop its ESG agenda and regulators provide further direction on enforcement priorities, companies should have more guidance to tailor their ESG risk mitigation strategies. In the meantime, companies should be proactive about addressing any potential exposure internally and creating plans for dealing with scrutiny from the task force, including whether they can seek protection under their D&O policies. https://www.natlawreview.com/article/mitigating-environmental-social-and-co…

Vineyard Wind raises $2.3B to finance first major US offshore wind farm
by Gunnar Larson 23 Apr '22

23 Apr '22

Developers of the 800-MW Vineyard Offshore Wind Project said Sept. 15 that they closed on $2.3 billion in senior debt from nine banks, allowing for construction to begin on the first commercial-scale offshore wind farm approved in the United States. U.S. institutions Bank of America Corp. and JPMorgan Chase & Co. put up funds, as well as Banco Santander SA subsidiary Santander Bank NA and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA, both of Spain. Scottish bank NatWest Group PLC got in on the deal; it is majority owned by the Economics and Finance Ministry of the United Kingdom, HM Treasury. Three French banks — Crédit Agricole Group subsidiary Crédit Agricole SA, Groupe BPCE subsidiary Natixis SA and BNP Paribas SA — are also lenders. https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/news-insights/latest-news-he… ------ JPMorgan Chase served as Joint Lead Arranger for more than $2 billion in financing for the 800 megawatt Vineyard Wind project, the first offshore wind farm in the United States capable of generating power at utility scale and the country’s largest source of offshore wind power. The project is expected to supply enough energy to serve the needs of 400,000 Massachusetts households and businesses and avoid 1.68 million metric tons of carbon emissions annually. https://www.jpmorganchase.com/ir/news/2022/jpmc-releases-2021-esg-report

Trump Organization ordered to pay $290,000 after losing battle against Scottish wind farm
by Gunnar Larson 23 Apr '22

23 Apr '22

The Trump Organization has agreed to pay $290,000 to the Scottish government, ending a multiyear legal battle in which Donald Trump tried and failed to block an offshore wind farm from being built in view of one of his Scottish golf courses. The agreement to pay the government’s legal fees ends the company’s bitter public dispute with the Scottish government. Over the years, Trump repeatedly criticized former Scottish first minister Alex Salmond about the wind farm and warned that it would cause “almost total destruction” of the country’s tourism industry. A Scottish government spokesman said that the settlement — first reported by the Scotsman newspaper — removed the need for an independent auditor to determine expenses to be paid by the Trump Organization. “Expenses amounting to [$290,000] will now be paid to Scottish Ministers by the Petitioners,” the spokesman said in a statement. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-organization-ordered-to-pay-2…

[ot][spam][wrong] Nerd Snipes

Interested in disproving the halting problem and the incompleteness theorems. Idea for halting problem: an algorithmic system that can predict the behavior of everything in the universe, with sufficient advanced preparation time, can always predict when a process will halt, because it will always be able to outpredict a pathologic example via its own pathological counterbehavior and advance preparation. Idea for subproof of universe predictability: The universe is made of statistical processes based on measurable metrics. Probability trees are predictable. I'm more interested in the logic challenges than formal proof, because I don't have the math. But maybe the nerd sniping can learn me some math. I got to godel's incompleteness theorems from xkcd. I have a lot of math to learn.

[spam][joke] How a Lightbulb is Installed

A large warehouse with a socket in the ceiling. A lightbulb is about 10 feet from the ground, held by a large screw-like contraption. Large poles extend from the light-bulb holder. Hundreds of burly men push on the poles, slowly turning. Elephants, mules, tractors, are affixed to these poles, pulling and pulling on the workings of slowly lifting the light bulb toward the ceiling. A bit off, scientists and engineers are studying lightbulb installation. Dust build-up. Alignment factors. Material stresses. Datacenters crunch numbers, burning killowatts of electricity and turning the flow of a nearby river to steam for cooling. Printers constantly print reams of numbers and charts, and flunkies review them in depth, traveling to and fro between the scientists and the laborers to adjust details around the process of raising the lightbulb toward the ceiling. Often everybody is asked to stop. "Ohmygod." "We did it again!" "Reverse 1 foot and 3.17 inches." "Everybody about face!" "Those are my toes!" "Get your derrick away from my giraffe!" "On 3 now!" "One ...!" "Two .." And the light bulb shakes. Under rare conditions, it is possible to change a lightbulb.
