Company performance in a socially responsible world
Every investor loves a company when it achieves its sales targets,
manages its costs, and performs well on the stock market and,
therefore, makes money.
However, a company nowadays also needs to think about its
reputation with the public and its own staff. In other words, it has to be
socially responsible. In addition, it is often judged these days on the
diversity of its workforce: the number of women, people from ethnic
minorities, and disabled people in all positions, including senior
management. (continue next slide)

3. Finally, a company needs to have a good safety record, both in terms of
its workers and the products it produces.
In a recent survey, 40% of workers said they would work longer
hours and 48% would work for less pay with a socially responsible
company. Interestingly, 46% of employees believed they already work
for a socially responsible company. Without doubt, profits are no
longer the only way to measure a company’s success. Employees and
customers expect a lot more.

Have a look at this graph. It shows the number of cars produced in China compared
with the other three major world producers—the USA, Japan, and Germany. Let’s
start with Japan. As you can see, passenger car production fell at the end of the
nineties. But since the beginning of this century, production has risen from eight
million to around ten million. In the USA production also dropped at the end of the
nineties. But since then, the number of cars has continued to decrease. In fact, new
car production has fallen by two million since 1997.
The performance of German car industry has been less disappointing than
USA. Car production grew from five to five million at the end of nineties. Since
1999, it has remained stable at just under six million vehicles per year. So let’s turn
to China. As you can see, in the first four years, the number of new cars increased
to just over half a million vehicles. But in the last ten years, it has grown
dramatically. Car production rose to three million in 2005, and since then, it has
increased by one million vehicles a year.
