    Low turnovers and below average stock trends Moderately positive performance of ATX expected for rest of 2011 20.07.2011 Economic development in CEE for 2011/12e expected to be better than in euro zone, 2011e: +3.3% (vs. +2.0%), 2012e: +3.8 (vs. +1.6%); Debt ratios in Austria and CEE much lower; Top picks: OMV, RHI, Immofinanz, voestalpine, AMAG, Kapsch, Polytec, AT&S ATX 2011e: slight double-digit performance expected, debt theme will create volatility; earnings growth 2011e (+32.0%) and 2012e (+22.6%) well within double-digit zone; 2011 has been a year of below average stock performance for the ATX up to now (-10% YTD). The Vienna Stock Exchange more or less just followed the negative international trend. Extraordinary factors like the Arab crisis, the events in Japan (Fukushima) and the persistent debt crisis contributed to creating an overall gloomy environment. The much lower debt ratios in Austria and CEE have not been able to prevail positively on performance yet. Trading volumes remain sluggish. Irritations will keep cropping up for financial and currency markets in the further course of 2011 due to the problems of high deficits and sovereign debt. However, the markets of Central and Eastern Europe should be able to decouple from the major established markets. In historic comparison with other markets, the ATX currently has a very attractive valuation level with clear double-digit earnings growth rates. Austrian stocks are also much more appealing than government bonds when one compares yields (840bp spread vs. 10-year German government bonds based on PER 2011/12e.

This would include adverse consequences they have notably on the environment, labor rights, human rights, and how they handle diversity matters and the risk of corruption, whether as a function of their own business or actors in their supply chains. “You manage what you measure.” In accordance with the Directive, the Austrian transposition stipulates that the non-financial declaration must state which reporting framework was used to create it, as well as apply non-financial key performance indicators relevant to the particular business. These requirements are the impetus behind this study and our point of departure: We systematically assess the degree of non-financial transparency and performance reporting for 2018, applying an ex-post assessment framework premised on reporting frameworks as per the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC). By benchmarking all Austrian companies subject to the EU NFRD-transposed law on the topics required to be disclosed – environmental, human rights, employee, social (gender), and anti-corruption matters – this study reveals which companies make an effort to show their degree of responsibility, and to what degree.
