Abstract

How can the existing Corporate Governance mechanisms be improved at the European level? In order to promote a long-term view, creating a link between Corporate Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility is a key element “in building people’s trust in the single market and contributing to the competitiveness of European business”. This paper discusses some of the answers proposed by the civil society following the Green Book on the topic and the public consultation launched by the European Commission on one of the aspect at the heart of Corporate Governance: The Comply or Explain Principle.
