This is the second edition of our Investor’s Eye on the Amazon quarterly email newsletter, providing institutional investors, industry analysts and researchers with key insight into some of the most pressing issues facing the Amazon and companies operating there.
Featured here is a new report authored by corporate governance experts Simon Billenness and Sanford Lewis entitled “An Analysis of the Operational Risks to Chevron Corporation from Aguinda v. ChevronTexaco.” This report provides cogent and fresh analysis of the long-running environmental trial in Ecuador, where Chevron was recently found liable by an Ecuadorian court for upwards of $18 billion in compensatory and punitive damages.
Also you will find an analysis of Talisman Energy’s controversial oil operations in Peru; insightful commentary on Ivanhoe Energy’s operations in Ecuador’s Block 20; a breaking news advisory about ConocoPhillips’ withdrawal from the territory of an uncontacted tribe in Block 39 of Peru; and a briefer on Vale’s role in the Belo Monte dam in Brazil.
