Universal Ownership, Systematic Stewardship: Whatever You Call It, Where Do We Stand?
Professor Madison Condon delivered the third lecture in the NBS-PRI-ECGI Public Lecture Series examining the current landscape of ESG and responsible investing. The lecture, titled "Universal Ownership, Systematic Stewardship: Whatever You Call It, Where Do We Stand?", emphasized the cross-sectoral nature of climate action and highlighted approaches for accounting for portfolio-wide climate damages. The lecture will follow-up on her 2020 paper on asset managers and climate action, surveying and responding to academic critiques.
The series provides monthly in-person or online public lectures. Each lecture will feature a leading academic to present cutting-edge research of a specific topic, and an industry expert to moderate the session, sharing insights from the field and also tailoring audience questions in a way to better enable bridging the gap between research and practice.
The NBS-PRI-ECGI Public Lecture Series is a new global joint initiative between Nanyang Business School (NBS), Principles of Responsible Investment (PRI) and European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI) to facilitate the knowledge exchanges between academics, practitioners, and policymakers in sustainable business.
