Предметом исследования в настоящей статье является идентификация изменений в восприятии обществом экологических проблем, социальных вопросов и тематики корпоративного управления и возникающих в связи с ними рисков. Целью статьи является поиск путей управления указанными рисками. Методика исследования предусматривает последовательный анализ влияния изменившихся подходов общества на базовые аспекты деятельности компаний, начиная со стадии инвестирования, с определением качественных и количественных параметров вероятных рисков и преимуществ, связанных с внедрением коммерческими организациями принципов устойчивого развития. Результатом исследования является выявление степени воздействия принятия важности или отказа от управления рассмотренными рисками на финансовый результат деятельности компании и ее стоимость для акционеров и инвесторов. Обосновано, что в современных условиях мотивация инвесторов определяется не только финансовыми показателями деятельности компании, а и ее усилиями по соответствию изменившимся представлениям государства и общества о взаимодействии экономики и окружающей среды, отношениями между людьми. Сформулированы рекомендации компаниям по управлению указанными рисками, которые важны для всех отраслей экономики.
