Abstract: | Investors have a responsibility, an interest and a substantial opportunity to play a powerful role in encouraging more responsible business practice. The authors do not underestimate the challenge of moving towards something like a 'Combined Code of Corporate Responsibility'. Nevertheless, without a common framework around which investors can legitimately hold companies accountable, it will be hard for us to make the same rapid progress on corporate ethics issues that we have been able to make on corporate governance issues in recent years. It is defining and implementing such a frame-work that represents the next challenge in the corporate governance debate. |
