Dionysia Katelouzou: The Path to Enlightened Investor Stewardship, Gebunden

Klappentext

The Path to Enlightened Investor Stewardship begins from a transformative premise: that institutional investors, as custodians of capital, bear enduring responsibilities not only to their proximate clients and beneficiaries, but also to end-investors and to the financial, social, and ecological systems in which they operate. Yet stewardship remains a contested and fragmented field of norms, practices, and expectations. Focusing on the UK as a paradigmatic site, this book traces the historical, conceptual, and regulatory evolution of stewardship from its shareholder-centric roots to an expansive, system-aware model. Drawing on original analysis of stewardship disclosures and activist interventions, and informed by interdisciplinary insights, it develops a typology of investor stewardship-multi-level, multi-actor, multi-asset, multi-mean, and multi-aim. At its heart is the model of enlightened investor stewardship: a relational and purposive practice that charts a path from fragmented duties to coherent accountability, and from procedural compliance to transformative responsibility.
