This year the Three Wise Men brought me, apart from non-polluting coal, the ability to see the future of CSR. Without preamble: in accordance with my I repeat the same forecasts Nothing changes! More articles will be published saying what should be, what they should do than articles saying what is, what they have done. There will be more articles published saying that everything is going well, that there is progress, than articles analyzing whether there has been progress. More forecasts will be published about what will happen in than last year. Forecast authors will not publish articles analyzing how the forecasts they made for turned out. All forecasts will include climate change, but none will predict a reduction in emissions. A new term will be invented (I'm a pessimist, just one) to refer to the company's responsibility to society. One (I'm pessimistic, just one) new scheme for sustainability reporting will be proposed. More sustainability reports will be published than in but they will not be shorter or more focused.
Sustainability reports will not say Finland Mobile Number List what problems the company faces in its responsibility, or what it has not done well. The number of colors and balloons used in materiality matrices in sustainability reports will increase. The number of conferences on sustainability, shared value, circular economy, common good economy, blue economygive the new economy a surname) will increase considerably. The number of conferences that have “social responsibility” in their title will decrease considerably, and the few that do exist will include a new definition of CSR. More prizes and in more categories will be awarded to companies for their CSR practices, based on information provided by their consultants, and they will do so at events sponsored by the winning companies. The DIRSE will continue to improve its influence and level, but not remuneration, within companies. The gender gap in companies will not be closed, but the number of DIRSE women will increase.
The managers of investments classified as Socially Responsible Investment, SRI, will continue to boast about the increase in the volume of assets managed with SRI criteria, but they will not say that the vast majority is managed based on the exclusion of sectors (weapons, tobacco, gambling, etc.and not based on positive selection, looking for the most responsible ones and thus stimulating their responsible practices. More than a hundred (I'm a pessimist, only a hundred) articles will be published, written by SRI managers, saying that the shares of responsible companies perform better on the stock market. Several articles will be published demonstrating that if those managers are successful and sell the shares of irresponsible companies en masse, they will yield more because they can be bought at low prices. Several academic articles will be published demonstrating that neither one nor the other but quite the opposite. Record numbers of green and social bond issues will be achieved, supported by the greenwashing implicit in its name.
