摘要
Listen as professor William P. Barnett and Stanford student Ingrid Ackermann host a discussion with professor Amit Seru to discuss the takeaways from an academic conference held at Stanford GSB on November 11–12, 2022.
Meeting the major sustainability goals that have been put forward will require substantial levels of new investment and significant changes in how capital is allocated in economies across the globe. This conference explored the roles that corporations, financial markets and innovations in finance might play in meeting sustainability challenges by ensuring that sufficient capital is raised and allocated in ways consistent with sustainability goals. We explored which corporate governance practices and government policies might have deterred such investments in the past.
We also discussed whether sustainability goals might be undermined by some of the activities undertaken by corporations and in the financial markets and what governance and policies might correct this. Our discussions also included the issue of measurement of sustainability goals, including but not only, the benefits and pitfalls of ESG measures.
The Stanford Initiative on Business and Environmental Sustainability Research Conference Series is hosted by Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability.
