In light of the Financial Supervisory Commission's (FSC) blueprint for sustainable development and the widespread adoption of sustainability reporting, it is apparent that ESG information disclosure has become an unstoppable trend in Taiwan. This phenomenon encompasses a broad spectrum of environmental, social, and governance aspects. Under the era of mandatory ESG disclosure, has the purpose of companies silently shifted towards prioritizing the interests of stakeholders, or does it still primarily revolve around shareholder interests? Is ESG a fundamental objective of corporate governance or merely a means to an end? This article delves into a comparative analysis rooted in the legal cultures of Europe and the United States to explore the underlying purpose of companies. It aims to dissect whether ESG serves as a governance objective or a strategic tool. Furthermore, the article provides a comprehensive overview of the disclosure regulations in the European Union, the United States, and Taiwan. Ultimate ly, the article presents its insights, pinpointing the relationship between ESG and shareholder interests, the alignment of our current disclosure regulations with shareholderism, and draws conclusions. It is hoped that this article will guide regulatory authorities towards a multifaceted contemplation of the essence of corporations and the directions for diverse approaches to disclosure regulations.
