Private initiatives for corporate responsibility have been a major development in international management over the last 20 years. The initiatives include issuance of codes of business conduct, implementation of management systems and broader efforts to improve business accountability.

What contributions, if any, have these initiatives made to improving the business sector's ability to comply with law and regulation and to respond to broader societal expectations?
