Abstract: Attitudes towards policy regulations of environmental
reporting were examined in a survey of 15 portfolio managers of stock funds
lacking an explicit environmental strategy. The managers’ evaluated three
regulative measures. They were most positive toward requirements for
companies to report their environmental impacts in a standardized way, a
measure that also was perceived to have the largest impact on social
responsible investment. They were less positive toward a requirement for
the funds to display in which way they themselves take environmental
criteria into account in their investments. They were least positive to
announce the proportion of companies in their portfolios that in a
standardized way reports environmental performance.
