Includes bibliographical references and index. "In Socially Responsible Investment Law, Benjamin Richardson suggests that new governmental reforms should encourage companies to participate in socially responsible investments by providing a better mix of standards and incentives for SRI through measures that include redefining the fiduciary responsibilities of institutional investors to incorporate environmental concerns. By doing so, Richardson posits that corporate financiers, including banks, hedge funds, and pension plans will become more accountable to the goals of ensuring sustainable development."--BOOK JACKET. |
