Inbrief

Ninety-one of the FTSE 100 posted a report on corporate responsibility issues online last year, compared with 59 in 2006. There was also a rise in the proportion that published in print format, from 49 per cent to 54 per cent. Figures in the latest Directions study by the Salterbaxter consultancy reveal that the number of independently verified non-financial reports produced by FTSE 100 constituents rose from 55 to 91 over the same period.
