Socially responsible investing
Description
A growing number of investment firms and individual investors are guided by the triple bottom line of human dignity, environmental stewardship, and financial profit. This program looks at the growth of socially responsible investing, or SRI, as a successful approach for portfolio managers, venture capitalists, and individual investors. Outlining the "three pillars" of SRI-company screening, community investing, and shareholder activism-the program features insights from several experts in the field: venture capitalist and Arete Corporation president Robert Shaw, Environmental Design International CEO Deborah Sawyer, The New Global Investors author Robert A. G. Monks, California State Treasurer Phil Angelides, and others.
