The World Business Council for Sustainable Development -- 1. Eco-efficiency and the Financial Markets -- 2. Financial Markets and the Development Process -- 3. The Company Leaders -- 4. The Investors and Analysts -- 5. The Bankers -- 6. The Insurers -- 7. The Accountants -- 8. The Raters -- Appendix: Statement by Banks on the Environment and Sustainable Development. Whether the workings of financial markets do, or should, support sustainable development is the primary question of this study. Other questions examined may become increasingly important as populations grow and developing countries enter financial markets. |
