¿Deben los administradores de una sociedad tener en cuenta en el ejercicio de su cargo, otros intereses (medioambientales, sociales, diversidad de género, etc.) más allá de los de sus accionistas? Este debate se abrió en Estados Unidos a raíz de una declaración de principios de los CEO de las principales empresas norteamericanas y, con toda seguridad, se replicará en España tras la reforma del artículo 225.1 de la Ley de Sociedades de Capital, que impone a los administradores el deber de subordinar, en todo caso, su interés particular al interés de la empresa. En este vídeo, Jorge Viera, Consultor Académico de HSF, explica los elementos esenciales de ese debate.
Should a company's officers, when discharging their duties, take into account any interests (environmental, social, gender diversity, etc.) other than those of its shareholders? This debate has gathered steam in the United States following a mission statement made by the CEO of a leading US company, and will in all likelihood repeated itself in Spain following the reform of article 225.1 of the Spanish Companies law, which imposes on corporate officers a duty to subordinate their particular interests to those of the company. In this video, Jorge Viera, Academic Consultant at HSF, explains the essential elements of the debate.
