• Provides an easy-to-access guide to what sustainable investing is and how it can influence investment decisions. • Written by experienced investment professionals, the book covers the full scale of Responsible Investment approaches and asset classes. • The book is based on global best practice and definitions as set by the UN-backed Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), which is today the leading institution for responsible investors.
The UN-supported Principles for Responsible Investment initiative has led to around a third of the world’s financial assets being managed with a commitment to invest in a way that considers environmental, social or governance (ESG) criteria. The responsible investment trend has increased dramatically since the global financial crisis, yet understanding of this field remains at an early stage. This handbook provides an atlas of current practice in the field of responsible investment. With a large global team of expert contributors, the book explores the impact of responsible investment on key financial actors ranging from mainstream asset managers to religious organizations. Offering students and researchers a comprehensive introduction to current scholarship and international structures in the expanding discipline of responsible investment, this handbook is vital reading across the fields of finance, economics and accounting.
Im zweiten Band der Trilogie wird untersucht, inwiefern sich die heutigen Gesellschaften als Geldgesellschaften verstehen und über „Geld“ konstituieren. Geldmythen über seine angebliche Produktivität stehen Vorstellungen gegenüber, in denen die Perspektive auf das Geld vom Gläubiger und Kapitaleigner zur Sicht des Schuldners und Kapitalnutzers hin verändert wird.
Tämä sukututkimus tarkastelee erään peräpohjalaisen Holck-suvun historiaa. Suvun kantavanhemmat ovat Rovaniemen Karvon ruodun ruotusotilas Johan Johansson Holck ja Brita Mattsdottter Niemi. Tutkimuksessa on selvitetty Johan Holckin syntyperä, joka on askarruttanut useita sukututkijoita vuosikymmenten ajan. Holck-nimi säilyi osalla Johanin ja Britan jälkeläisistä, mutta avioliittojen kautta ja sukunimien suomentamisen seurauksena Holck-sukuun kuuluvat myös Rovaniemen ja Tervolan Pallari- ja Hakoköngäs-suvut, Tervolan Kaiharju-suku sekä Oulujoen Hela-suku. Kirja käsittelee erityisesti näitä sukuhaaroja suvun alkupolvien lisäksi. Kaikkiaan kirjaan sisältyvät tiedot kattavat noin kuusi sukupolvea 1760-luvulta 1950-luvulle.
Traces the rise of public and private pension funds, which now control as much as 50 percent of the equity in American corporations, and argues that shareholders in those funds could use their power to make corporations more responsive to social needs.
