Will Martindale and Philip Bateman | Responsible Investment: An insider's account

Philip Bateman Season 3 Episode 17

Join Will Martindale from Canbury Insights and I for a deep dive into Responsible Investment, his latest book and questions that matter, including;

How do we enable investors to spend their time doing things that have more meaning?

How are people are trying to shift the normative interpretation of what we mean by responsible and sustainable, rather than argue in favour of concessionary investing, which brings up the question of 'who decides how much concession, on which issues' ?

Where are there potential for real breakthroughs in responsible investing, and how does resourcing and politics fit into that?

How do we as an industry challenge pay to play and address high level investor optics?

How do we get serious about 'real world impact' and the philosophy of responsible investment, including;

- the greatest good for the greatest number
- the most fortunate helping the least fortunate
- justice (not doing harm to others)
- being a categorical imperative (it's the right thing to do)
