What is CorporateRegister.com News?

CorporateRegister.com News is part of the CorporateRegister.com directory of global CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) resources.

Companies can post their CSR announcements on these webpages, from where they will be freely available to our website visitors and registered users, as well as disseminated by RSS feed.

Site users can view the latest news items and use a range of search features to access the (back) directory. A 'favourites' feature is available, allowing users to save specific news items of interest (only available to signed-up users).

Why CorporateRegister.com News?

CSR has entered the business mainstream. Thousands of companies are now producing annual CSR reports, which are all featured in our Report Directory. Thousands of stakeholders around the world are interested in accessing CSR information - CorporateRegister.com is a central global CSR portal.

More frequent updates form an important part of a company's CSR communications strategy, and provide a consistent flow of information to stakeholders. Using ad hoc company generated news items, our News module brings together CSR-engaged companies and informed stakeholder audiences.

Other CSR news sites do exist, the majority being editorial based, but our news items are written by the issuing company. Other CSR news sites also feature company announcements, we differentiate ourselves by offering a global service dedicated to providing high-quality CSR information. We are not focussing on philanthropic and 'human interest' type announcements, the diversity of our news items will reflect the range of CSR issues companies are currently addressing.
