Download or read book Corporate Sustainability written by Paolo Tenuta and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-26 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers to the main types of corporate sustainability practices. The first section examines both the ratings provided by international agencies and the various ESG (Environmental, Social and Government) indexes existing at 2021. In turn, the second part empirically investigates the relationship between the level of corporate sustainability and corporate financial performance among the large companies listed on the Milan Exchange FTSE-MIB 40 index for 2015-2019. The book offers a comprehensive overview of current sustainability concepts and practices and illustrates how various companies are seeking to integrate them in their competitive strategy. Further, it fills a gap in the extant literature by analysing the origins, historical evolution and structure of the main rating agencies and ESG indexes. In addition, the empirical analysis of corporate sustainability’s impact on companies’ financial performance reveals the importance of collegial leadership – a commonly found feature of Italian family businesses that has not been considered in previous studies – as a moderating factor for reconciling sustainability initiatives and performance at family-run firms.

Download or read book Non Knowledge Risk and Bank Company Management written by Vincenzo Formisano and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the current economic scenario, the intangible assets contribute significantly to the construction of the competitive positioning of a company. It follows that this intangible information must be appropriately considered in the internal rating system (IRSs). Currently key aspects of business risk and operational risk such as potential for growth, competitive capabilities, core competencies, role in the supply chain of membership, and governance are being considered as secondary in this system. Intangible factors such as the milieu of the company and the environment in which it operates, are not being appropriately considered. In this book, Vincenzo Formisano proposes new guidelines aimed to set desirable IRSs in which the weight of intangible assets is appropriately and properly valued. He addresses practical rules for achieving a rating system capable of understanding and enhancing the intangible assets of a company and for the assessment of creditworthiness. The first part of the book focuses on existing practices; the second part exposes a general model for the classification and interpretation of intangibles. The third part provides practical guidelines designed to configure desirable rating models in which the weight of intangible assets is correctly considered. This book offers theoretical and practical insights and an easy-to-read approach which provides a valuable source of information for teachers and students in Finance. It is also a useful reference point for the Banking, Accounting and Finance managerial communities.

Download or read book Developing Corporate Social Responsibility written by Francesco Perrini and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Perrini et al provide a detailed, authoritative look at the evolving European perspective on corporate social responsibility. They show how Europe has moved from follower status to leading edge practice. The book is the best current indicator of what the next stages of CSR will look like.' - Thomas W. Dunfee, University of Pennsylvania, US The rapidly increasing attention devoted to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has resulted in the term 'CSR' being applied to myriad dissimilar phenomena. The authors therefore aim to dispel this confusion by presenting a multi-faceted view of socially responsible corporate behavior and related themes. They provide a conceptualization of CSR that emphasizes the role of the adoption and implementation of specific CSR strategies and their impact on corporate social and economic performance.

Download or read book Economia etica e impresa socialmente responsabile written by Vincenzo Freda and published by Youcanprint. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In un'epoca di grandi trasformazioni e di forte aumento della competizione a livello globale è possibile parlare ancora di responsabilità dell'impresa, al di là della ricerca del profitto? In un contesto sempre più difficile e infido, dove il problema per le imprese è quello di sopravvivere, l'agire economico può tener conto delle sue conseguenze, anche al di là del calcolo costi-benefici? A domande come queste si è provato a dare risposta tracciando un percorso dall'analisi delle opzioni interpretative del concetto di responsabilità sociale dell'impresa fino ai possibili sbocchi operativi dal punto di vista delle azioni imprenditoriali. Chiude la ricerca un breve profilo della concezione olivettiana della fabbrica che costituisce un'esperienza unica nel panorama del capitalismo nazionale e internazionale e un'anticipazione di quello che è oggi il tema dell'etica nell'economia e nel mercato del lavoro.
Download or read book Responsible Corporate Governance written by Maria Aluchna and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-10 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the tasks and functions of corporate governance in the light of current challenges and the dynamics that arise from a broader approach to company management and the integration of corporate governance with corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability. Addressing the corporate governance shortcomings that are believed to have contributed to the recent financial crisis, it explores the interplay between corporate governance and CSR, and includes examples of company practice to show how such changes affect the practices of shareholders, boards of directors and regulators. In particular, the book examines shareholders’ activities, their different investment strategies, specific reporting expectations and the submission of proposals to the annual meeting. Further, for boards of directors it explores the need to revise their tasks with respect to the criteria for executive appointments, their corporate strategy, performance measures and diversity recommendations, while for directors it provides recommendations to reconsider the structure of executive pay and performance incentives. Lastly, for regulators the book investigates the need to introduce new laws addressing, for instance, the need for integrated reporting, limiting the voice of short term oriented shareholders and providing guidelines for executive compensation.

This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La sostenibilità e la Responsabilità Sociale d’Impresa (RSI) rappresentano un tema di profondo interesse da parte delle imprese e degli operatori economici, politici e sociali. Per le realtà aziendali, è ormai di tutta evidenza che un successo economico duraturo non può prescindere dall’ottenimento e dal mantenimento del consenso dei propri stakeholder. È necessario quindi contemperare i molteplici interessi dei soggetti coinvolti e interessati all’attività svolta, in una prospettiva che abbraccia le istanze di natura reddituale e quelle di natura etico-sociale e ambientale. Nella definizione delle strategie aziendali è fondamentale valutare le attese di diversa natura e i differenti livelli di partecipazione e coinvolgimento che qualificano il rapporto fra azienda e stakeholder, radicando profondamente l’assunzione di responsabilità sociale nella governance aziendale. Nondimeno, gli aspetti di comunicazione della RSI rivestono un ruolo fondamentale sia per quanto attiene all’adempimento dei doveri assunti dall’azienda nei confronti dei propri stakeholder, sia con riferimento alla legittimazione che da una trasparente e attendibile comunicazione può derivare. Alla luce di quanto osservato, il volume si propone di offrire una lettura dei principali elementi di analisi in ambito di responsabilità sociale, con particolare riferimento agli aspetti di governance e di comunicazione. Sono quindi trattati i concetti fondamentali in tema di sostenibilità, responsabilità sociale d’impresa ed etica d’impresa considerandoli in una prospettiva strategica di governance aziendale. Successivamente il lavoro si concentra sulla comunicazione aziendale, con particolare riferimento agli strumenti di accountability diretta e di gestione della RSI.Il libro è il frutto della riflessione e dell’esperienza maturata da un gruppo di docenti e ricercatori che da tempo si occupano di sostenibilità, etica e responsabilità sociale di impresa; ogni contributo nasce dall’elaborazione personale dei diversi Autori, sia pure collocandosi in un comune e condiviso quadro di riferimento.

Download or read book Smart and Sustainable Planning for Cities and Regions written by Adriano Bisello and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises a selection of the top contributions presented at the second international conference “Smart and Sustainable Planning for Cities and Regions 2017”, held in March 2017 in Bolzano, Italy. Featuring forty-six papers by policy-makers, academics and consultants, it discusses current groundbreaking research in smart and sustainable planning, including the progress made in overcoming cities’ challenges towards improving the quality of life. Climate change adaptation and mitigation of global warming, generally identified as drivers of global policies, are just the “tip of the iceberg” when it comes to smart energy transition. Indeed, equally relevant towards this current transformation – and key topics in this volume – are ICTs, public spaces and society; next economy for the city; strategies and actions for good governance; urban-rural innovation; rethinking mobility. The book’s depth in understanding and insightfulness in re-thinking demonstrate the breaking of new ground in smart and sustainable planning. A new ground that policy-makers, academics and consultants may build upon as a bedrock for smart and sustainable planning.
