Abstract:

The definition of investor must be stretched beyond normal nomenclature to encompass all stakeholders of the firm, including internal decision makers, to understand sustainable finance in its broadest context. A robust corporate governance model aids the assessment of firms chosen for investment and can be used to answer the question of whether or not corporate governance and allegiance to sustainability is implemented in a meaningful way - perhaps yielding some surprising answers.
