The Concept of Shared Value in the Theory of Sustainable Finance

Abstract

The main purpose of this chapter is to identify the existing relations between the selected areas of sustainable development but carried out on the basis of the indicators describing the macroeconomic dimension of this development from the OECD countries' perspective. The theoretical basis for analyses is the concept of shared value, for the first time presented by Porter and Kramer in 2011. In this chapter, this proposition was applied to the studies carried out on the country level. For this purpose, the multidimensional statistical analysis was applied. The results of the study confirmed that on the current level of development, even in the case of the most developed countries, it is very difficult to find the shared space with the same level of development between these areas. In the same time, it is very important direction of further research and decisions undertaken on the macroeconomic level.
