Abstract: Abstract The article analyzes the issues of monitoring and evaluation (M&E) frameworks for environmental standards compliance existing at the national, business and the international level. The purpose of the research paper is a critical overview of the environment standards compliance M&E practices. To do this the paper focuses on critical review of the main international practices in this field. To achieve the goal of the paper such methods as the content analysis, benchmarking, logical analysis were used. The authors have revealed that all of the stakeholders have their own interests in the field of sustainability results reporting. Most of the international organizations insist on the private sector compliance with a set of rules on reporting. However, business often has its own interests depending on its business goals. Thus, it is looking for more flexibility. What is more, detailed requirements are often too burdensome for many of the governments, who have their own national standards.
