CFERF - Corporate Sustainability Reporting in Canada

In March 2009, the Canadian Financial Executives Research Foundation (CFERF) issued a report on Corporate Sustainability Reporting in Canada. The report identifies some of the major issues surrounding corporate sustainability reporting from the perspective of the senior financial executive. It demonstrates what leaders in the area consider to be both the most beneficial and challenging aspects of environmental/sustainability management and disclosure by their companies. A survey conducted by CFERF of 343 senior financial executives in conjunction with the conclusions reached through an Executive Research Forum held on May 28, 2008 form the basis of this report.
