Responsible Investment
By Ed Rory Sullivan and Craig Mackenzie
Greenleaf Publishing, 2006
Submitted by George Starcher
This comprehensive anthology is a unique collection of articles on ethical or socially responsible investment. The editors have brought together some of the leading practitioners and commentators in the field to address three important questions:
- Do responsible investment strategies actually contribute to improving the social, ethical and environmental performance of companies?
- To what extent is it in investors' interests to encourage higher standards of CR on the part of companies?
- Do responsible investment strategies enhance the financial performance for investors?
This book will be of great interest to practitioners, researchers, academics and students in the fields of socially and environmentally responsible investment, corporate governance, and corporate social responsibility. While much of the content is based upon United Kingdom experience, it is generally of global relevance.
