HELP COMPANIES BE POSITIVE PLAYERS IN THE WORLD ECONOMY

SOME PROPOSALS:

5 • Legally enshrine the fact that companies should also contribute to general interest and

thus be positive

France could pave the way by amending the definition of companies in its civil code

6 • Reform company governance to give equal power to the different stakeholders and give

long term shareholders more weight

7 • Impose companies to display information on the positivity of their products on their

packaging to enlighten consumers on their choices

Positive States to promote change

POSITIVE STATES TO PROMOTE CHANGE

SOME PROPOSALS: 8 • Favor savings and investments that are allocated to positive activities

In France, the “livret de développement durable” (savings for sustainable development)

should be reallocated to positive investments, since its name does not fit its use.

9 • Integrate positive criteria into public purchase

10 • Expand the concept of extended producer’s responsibility to other issues than just

recycling

Work with international institutions (EU, OECD) to inspire other States to implement such measures

Economy »

12 • In each country, set a specific goal to improve the national rank in the positive economy
