Survey highlights growing importance of CSR in Europe

A new survey of European financial analysts and investment managers has highlighted a growing recognition of the importance of corporate social responsibility (CSR). The survey, carried out on behalf of CSR Europe and Euronext, says that demand from both private and institutional investors is driving the development of socially responsible investment (SRI) products. However, this development varies widely from country to country in the EU.
