Tiivistelmä: | Asia represents one of the most diverse regions of the world in terms of culture, politics and economies. As might be expected, those countries with stronger, more mature economies are the regional leaders, notably Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong. With the development of the Global Reporting Initiative, participating Asian companies are able to access a global network of reporting organisations and substantial collective experience. The region's reporting pioneers are being driven by globalisation and international peer pressure. Moreover, whilst Asian companies have been notorious for limited corporate governance and transparency in their financial affairs, business models are changing and this evolution is likely to promote better disclosure not only of fiscal performance but also on environmental, health, safety and social issues. |
