The pressure on boards to identify their stakeholders and to take care of their interests does not stop. This was the clear message addressed to the European Commission at the Frank Bold conference on non-financial reporting.
In its comments to the public consultation following the Interim Report of the High-Level Expert Group on Sustainable Finance of the European Union, ecoDa acknowledged the leadership role that board members can play to enhance sustainability. However, ecoDa has pointed out that it is not always easy to counterbalance the pressure coming from short-term shareholders.
