From small beginnings, US companies have dramatically stepped up their disclosure practices and formalized reporting on sustainability and responsibility strategies, goals, performance, and achievements.
A growing number of shareholders are keenly interested in these disclosures. So are key stakeholders including employees, shareholders, business partners, suppliers and others. The influential parties shaping access to capital, setting market valuations, and shaping reputations of US companies, are the primary audience for these reports.
In this Update newsletter you'll find news, perspectives and results of our monitoring, trendwatching and corporate reporting analysis.
We invite you to read the Update contents – news you can use about corporate S&R transparency and reporting that is shaping investor and stakeholder perception in the "new normal" of the capital markets.
