Socially responsible investment arises from the integration of
environmental, social and governance criteria in investment
decisions and the implementation of sustainable finance. As the
impact of COVID-19 continues to be navigated, Responsible
Investment Around the World considers economic recovery undertaken
in different regions around the world. Financing policies and
investment solutions are proposed that can responsibly help address
the world’s most pressing issues – in climate change, social
injustice, and access to healthcare. Paving the way for responsible
investment towards creating a fairer and more equitable society,
Julia M. Puaschunder offers a comparative approach that takes into
account both law and economics to understand the most contemporary
global international finance and responsible investment trends. The
interdisciplinary nature of Responsible Investment Around the World
appeals to academics and scholars, investors, business leaders,
healthcare practitioners and NGOs. Tangible examples of successful
responsible investment and financial solutions to solve worldwide
predicaments make the book highly applicable to everyday finance
and economics practice with real-world relevance.
Exploring a topic of growing importance that has scant coverage,
Intergenerational Equity brings to the fore a comprehensive
discussion of intergenerational predicaments. The book explores how
corporate and financial social responsibility can leverage
intergenerational harmony through Corporate Social Responsibility
(CSR) and Socially Responsible Investment (SRI). A warming earth
under climate change, overindebtedness crises and demographic aging
of a Western world population are putting pressure on future
generations. Transparency and accountability are key for monitoring
corporate and financial social responsibility in the interplay of
public and private actors to ensure a sustainable humankind and
intergenerational harmony. The author discusses the human
constituents of responsibility and the international emergence of
CSR, paying special attention to global governance
multi-stakeholder partnerships. The rise of SRI in the
international arena in the wake of stakeholder activism and
intrinsic socio-psychological motives of socially responsible
investors are also outlined and the role of leadership, trust and
managerial ethics accentuated. Scholars, executives and readers
motivated by the desire to improve corporate and financial market
activities will benefit from this insightful and valuable book.
