Résumé:In this contribution we will briefly discuss the shareholders' need for social, ethical and environmental information and the efforts of corporations to address this need.

We will discuss the following three cases: BP's investments in Azerbaijan, Nike's management of its labour conditions, of child labour and security issues, and Monsanto's production of genetically modified seeds.
