In our environment, the companies that are most committed to CSR are those that want closeness with their interest groups, greater acceptance, improving their community relations and transparent communication with their entire environment from investors, senior management, employees, clients, suppliers and authorities. from various sectors.
However, CSR is not discretionary since companies Chile Mobile Number List that are listed on the Stock Exchange and are registered in the Public Registry of the Stock Market belonging to the SMV, a technical regulatory body that has the mission, are required to provide an annual sustainability report. to protect the interests of investors as well as the purchase and sale of shares.
The health emergency marks a before and after in the rethinking of the strategic objectives of companies in terms of sustainability, and along these lines, companies from various sectors, especially mining, banking, insurance, beverages and business associations, have been carrying out their own work and alliances with authorities and civil society to carry out philanthropic actions that contribute to the promotion of national economic reactivation.
