Curious about how corporate responsibility and ethical investing can help shape a better future? Join Melissa Joy, CFP®, as she sits down with William F. Schulz, former Executive Director of Amnesty International USA, to uncover how ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investing has the potential to impact both business and society.
In this episode, Bill shares insights from his memoir Reversing the Rivers and discusses the pivotal moments in history that have fueled the rise of ESG investing—from the fight against apartheid to addressing the challenges of labor trafficking. Together, they explore why ethical practices in supply chains are not only morally right but also beneficial for long-term business success.
Melissa and Bill also dive into the performance and misconceptions surrounding ESG investing, comparing the returns of Vanguard’s ESG Investment Index (ESGV) with the Vanguard 500 Index. They break down the ethical considerations in industries like for-profit prisons and worker safety, and take a closer look at the growing prominence of responsible investing in Western Europe.
