On Episode 10 of the Stroke Alert Podcast, host Dr. Negar Asdaghi highlights two articles from the November 2021 issue of Stroke: “Biomarkers of Coagulation and Inflammation in COVID-19–Associated Ischemic Stroke” and “Treatment-Associated Stroke in Patients Undergoing Endovascular Therapy in the ARUBA Trial.” She also interviews Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston about “Ischemic Benefit and Hemorrhage Risk of Ticagrelor-Aspirin Versus Aspirin in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack.” Dr. Negar Asdaghi: 1) What is the net ischemic benefit derived from combination of ticagrelor and aspirin treatment in patients with mild ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack? 2) Is the ischemic stroke in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 associated with the rise in biomarkers of inflammation and coagulopathy? 3) What are the characteristics associated with periprocedural stroke in patients treated endovascularly for an unruptured AVM? We'll discuss these topics and much more at today's podcast. Stay with us. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Welcome back to the Stroke Alert Podcast. My name is Negar Asdaghi. I'm an Associate Professor of Neurology at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine and your host for the monthly Stroke Alert Podcast. For the November 2021 issue of Stroke, we have a large selection of topics, from peanut consumption reducing the risk of ischemic stroke, and the decline in the rate of progression of coronary atherosclerosis in patients on a Mediterranean diet, to how the efficacy of endovascular thrombectomy diminishes in patients with more pervious thrombus composition, which I encourage you to review in addition to our podcast today. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Later in the podcast, I have the distinct honor of interviewing Dr. Claiborne Johnston from Dell Medical School at UT Austin on his latest work with data from the THALES trial to clarify the net ischemic benefits derived from a combination of ticagrelor and aspirin therapy in comparison with the risks of hemorrhage associated with this treatment in patients with mild and moderate stroke and TIA. But first with these two articles. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        COVID-19–associated ischemic stroke, or CAIS, is a new term that, unfortunately, stroke physicians need to be familiar with. While acute ischemic stroke can occur in parallel from, say, traditional causes of stroke in patients infected with coronavirus, ischemic stroke and other thrombotic events, such as myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, and acute limb thrombosis, can occur in the setting of overt hyperinflammation and subsequent coagulopathy that is observed in patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19 illness. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Elevated D-dimer, although quite non-specific, has emerged as a marker of COVID-19–associated coagulopathy, but whether an elevated D-dimer in isolation or in combination with various other inflammatory and coagulation markers is associated with development of acute in-hospital ischemic stroke in those hospitalized with COVID is not known. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        So, in the current issue of the journal, in the article titled "Biomarkers of Coagulation and Inflammation in COVID-19–Associated Ischemic Stroke,” Dr. Charles Esenwa from the Department of Neurology at Montefiore Medical Center and colleagues did an interesting analysis of over 5,000 patients with COVID-19 who were admitted to one of the Montefiore Health System hospitals between March 1, 2020 and May 8, 2020. This was a retrospective analysis, so they had to work with the available biomarkers for each patient and use a machine learning cluster analysis of these biomarkers to divide the patients basically based on five biomarkers to four clusters. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        The following five biomarkers were chosen by this machine learning cluster analysis. These included CRP, D-dimer, LDH, white BC, and PTT. So, they had to come up with some arbitrary rules to exclude biomarkers that were either missing in over 30% of their population, and they also excluded those patients that were hospitalized for a long period of time, and they chose a 30-day hospitalization and over. And they also only used the first reading for each biomarker. Again, these were arbitrary rules that were set forth by the authors, and they found some alarming findings. When they clustered patients based on similarities in these biomarkers, they came up with predicted models for combined thrombotic events and acute ischemic stroke. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        For example, in the cluster where the patients had the highest mean values for CRP, D-dimer, LDH, and white BC, and a relatively low PTT, these patients had the highest prevalence of acute ischemic stroke. They had the highest prevalence of in-hospital strokes and severe strokes and highest percentage of total thrombotic events. In contrast, the cluster with the lowest mean of all of these five biomarkers had no cases of in-hospital acute ischemic strokes; they had the lowest prevalence of composite, all thrombotic events, and patients had the least severe complications. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        So, they also tested the effects of biomarkers individually for prediction of acute ischemic stroke. And it turns out that when they used a lone marker, only D-dimer again was associated with acute ischemic stroke. Very interestingly, D-dimer was specifically elevated in those COVID-19 patients in whom the stroke was ultimately classified as cryptogenic. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        So, what does that mean? That means that it's more likely that a stroke had occurred in the setting of severe COVID-19 hyperinflammatory response, and less likely associated with other classical causes of stroke. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        So, what did we learn overall from this study? Well, hospitalized COVID-19 patients with a combination of high CRP, D-dimer, LDH, and white BC, and slight reduction in their PTT, had a 4.5-fold increase in the risk of in-hospital mortality and a fivefold increase in the risk of in-hospital stroke as compared to the COVID-19 patients with the lowest mean values for all the five biomarkers mentioned above. So, important information to keep in mind as we treat hospitalized COVID-19 patients, and we await more prospective data on this topic. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Arteriovenous malformations, or AVMs, are congenital vascular lesions that are associated with long-term excess mortality and morbidity, essentially almost all related to their risk of intracerebral hemorrhage. Roughly half the patients with brain AVMs present with intracerebral hemorrhage, resulting in a first-ever hemorrhage rate of about 0.5 per 100,000 person years. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Annual risk of hemorrhage is estimated at 1 to 4% for all comers with AVMs, but varies significantly, and can be as low as 0.9% in patients with unruptured, superficially located brain AVMs with superficial drainage, but may be as high as over 34% in patients with ruptured, deeply seated brain AVMs with deep venous drainage. So, treatment would entirely be dependent on the type of presentations and characteristics of each patient with an AVM. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Whether unruptured AVMs should be managed clinically or treated either endovascularly or surgically is the subject of the ARUBA trial that is a randomized trial of unruptured brain AVMs. The enrollment of ARUBA was halted by the study's DSMB board, but medical management was found to be superior to treatment arm for the primary outcome of symptomatic stroke and death. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Since then, there's been a lot of focus in the literature and comparison of outcomes between treated and untreated patients with unruptured AVMs, but less has been published on characteristics of patients who suffered from periprocedural stroke, an important part of the primary outcome of ARUBA. So, in the current issue of the journal, we have the study titled “Treatment-Associated Stroke in Patients Undergoing Endovascular Therapy in the ARUBA Trial.” Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Dr. Joshua Burks and colleagues from the Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Miami and colleagues evaluated 64 patients with unruptured AVMs enrolled in the ARUBA trial who underwent endovascular treatment as part of the trial and looked at the characteristics of those who suffered a perioperative stroke, defined as a stroke recorded at or within 48 hours of intervention, as this would represent a direct procedure-related complication rather than sequelae of, say, treated or partially treated AVM itself. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        All patients who initiated endovascular intervention, including attempted interventions in cases where therapy was aborted secondary to technical or anatomical limitations, were included regardless of randomization or subsequent withdrawal from the study beyond 48 hours following the intervention. So, what they found was that 16% of interventions resulted in stroke, 11% hemorrhagic, and 5% ischemic strokes. And they had no perioperative mortality, which is good news. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        In univariate analysis, they found many factors that were more commonly seen in patients that suffered from perioperative stroke as compared to those who did not have a stroke perioperatively. Those factors included, for instance, female sex. Over half of these patients were female. Close to half were enrolled in France. And over 40% of those who suffered a stroke in the perioperative timeframe had Spetzler-Martin grade two AVMs. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        When they accounted for all confounding variables, they found that endovascularly treated unruptured AVMs that are supplied by the posterior cerebral artery cortical feeders and those with Spetzler-Martin grade two and three had a higher perioperative stroke risk as compared to their counterparts without these characteristics. Interestingly, there are also significant geographical disparities in the risk of stroke in that patients treated in the United States or Germany had a significantly lower stroke risk than patients treated in other countries. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        So, what did we learn from this study? There are patients and lesion characteristics that increase the risk of stroke associated with endovascular treatment of unruptured AVMs. The current study suggests that AVMs with cortical arterial feeders from posterior cerebral artery and those with grade two and three Spetzler-Martin were associated with a higher risk of procedural and periprocedural stroke. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        And very importantly, as with every surgical intervention, the risk of a procedure is operator-dependent, as well as center-dependent. And these are important factors to keep in mind as technology evolves and more treatments become available to decide whether to keep or to refer patients with unruptured AVMs to a more experienced center. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Patients with mild ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack are at high risk of having recurrent ischemic events, especially in the immediate aftermath of their symptom onset. Early diagnosis and initiation of secondary preventive measures, such as antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapies, in the appropriate setting considerably reduce this recurrent risk. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Multiple randomized trials have shown that as compared to treatment with a single antiplatelet agent, dual antiplatelet treatment is more effective in reducing the risk of stroke and other major vascular events in the TIA mild stroke population, a benefit that comes with an expected increase in the risk of hemorrhage. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        THALES trial is one of the latest trials to determine the efficacy of dual, which is combination of ticagrelor and aspirin, versus mono-antiplatelet therapy, that is aspirin alone, in eligible patients with non-cardioembolic acute ischemic stroke and TIA. Now, it's important to keep in mind that the primary outcome of THALES is a composite of stroke or death, which included both ischemic and hemorrhagic events. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Now, it's important to understand that while in the setting of a clinical trial, combining the risks associated with dual antiplatelet therapy, which is hemorrhage, and the potential treatment benefit, that is reduction of recurrent ischemic events, is appropriate as part of the outcome selection. In routine practice, this type of primary outcome can obscure the actual trade-offs between the benefits of dual antiplatelet treatment and its inherent hemorrhagic risk. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        So, in this issue of the journal, in the study titled "Ischemic Benefit and Hemorrhage Risk of Ticagrelor-Aspirin Versus Aspirin in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack," the THALES investigators led by Dr. Claiborne Johnston sought to separate the ischemic benefits of combination of ticagrelor and aspirin therapy from its hemorrhagic risks in patients enrolled in the trial. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        I'm joined today by Professor Johnston to discuss the findings of this paper. Dr. Johnston absolutely needs no introduction to the stroke community and our readership. He's a Professor of Neurology at Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin. He's a leader in the field of cerebrovascular disorders, has served as the primary investigator of multiple randomized trials and large prospective studies to evaluate the preventive treatment outcomes in TIA and mild stroke, and has pioneered the development and validation of predictive models for recurrent stroke in this population. He's authored over 700 peer-reviewed manuscripts, has won several awards for research and teaching, and is recognized for his leadership in the field of medicine and healthcare. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Good morning, Clay. We're delighted that you could join us on the podcast. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Well, thank you. It's wonderful to be here. Thank you for having me. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Thank you. So, THALES is an exciting new addition to the most recent trials of dual antiplatelet therapy that studied mostly the role of clopidogrel and aspirin combination therapy. Can you please start us off by telling us why did we need a new trial in a very similar patient population? Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Well, the primary reason was, yes, clopidogrel works in combination with aspirin in the setting, but clopidogrel is actually a prodrug. It requires conversion in the liver to its active form. And polymorphisms in CYP2C19 and Cyt P450 pathways are really common and associated with an inability or limited ability to convert that prodrug into its active form. So, there are a number of people who may not benefit much, if at all, from clopidogrel. So, it's kind of surprising that it works as well as it does. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Ticagrelor doesn't have that problem. It's not a prodrug. It acts directly on the P2Y12 inhibitor. And so, the hope was that we would have a more consistent and pronounced effect on risk reduction in patients after TIA and mild to moderate strokes. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Primary efficacy outcome in THALES was different from the primary efficacy outcome chosen for the POINT trial, that was major ischemic events and death from ischemic vascular events, and that of the CHANCE trial, that was a combination of ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes in 90 days. Can you please tell us about the thought process behind choosing this particular primary efficacy outcome in THALES? Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Yeah, so this was encouraged by the regulatory authorities. And so the primary efficacy outcome in THALES is all stroke, hemorrhagic and ischemic, and all death, hemorrhagic and ischemic. And we teased apart just the ischemic etiologies in POINT. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           The rationale was that we were including all the major outcomes that the drug could impact. The problem is that people forget that it includes hemorrhagic events, and then they weigh that efficacy outcome against the safety outcome. And so there's confusion. There's sort of double-counting of safety elements in doing that comparison. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Okay, great. And now, before we hear about how you disentangled the two safety and efficacy outcomes, can you please remind our listeners about the primary results of THALES, which was published obviously a few months ago? Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Yeah, sure. So, it showed that the combination of ticagrelor and aspirin works. It reduced the stroke and death by about 17% over the 30-day period of treatment. So robust effect. There were some increased hemorrhages, and looking at severe hemorrhage as defined by the GUSTO definition, there was almost a fourfold increase, but it was tiny in absolute terms of 0.4% increase. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Okay. So, now it's very important, as you mentioned, this disentangling of recurrent ischemic, again, safety from efficacy outcomes. Your current study that is published in the November issue of Stroke clarified these results. And we're excited to hear about those results. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           That's right. So, there were two problems with the way people have interpreted the results of the THALES trial. One is this entanglement of safety events and both efficacy outcome and the safety outcome. The other was the use of relative risks as opposed to absolute risks, because a high relative risk for a rare event is less important than a small relative risk for a more difference between more common events. And so we wanted to deal with both of those issues. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           So, we defined new outcomes that were not entangled. So, we defined major ischemic events, similar to what we had done in POINT, and then we defined major hemorrhage as being basically irreversible hemorrhage, and compared outcomes in the two groups. And what we found was that when we did it that way, for every 1,000 patients treated, we avoided 12 major ischemic events and produced three major hemorrhages. So, about a four-to-one ratio of ischemic benefit to hemorrhage risk. And that was true at various cutpoints for disability. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           So, if we said, "Okay, yes, you had an event, and are you disabled at last follow-up at 30 days?" Then if we said that, there was also a four-to-one difference in disabling events, ischemic versus hemorrhagic. And if we said a two or greater, so moderate disability or worse, it was the same ratio, four-to-one. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Okay, so four-to-one ratio of benefit. That's an important number to keep in mind. Also reassuring to see that this net clinical benefit or net clinical impact of the combination of therapy was practically the same across all the pre-specified subgroups in the trial. Were you at all surprised by the subgroup analysis? Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Well you know if you do enough subgroup analyses, you're going to find differences, right? And thankfully, we have the looking at interaction terms to keep us honest, but even so, you look at 20 and you're going to have some significant interaction terms, as well. But yeah, it was reassuring that the effects were so consistent across groups. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           I think there's been a tendency to over-interpret results from subgroup analyses. We don't have any evidence to suggest that we should be doing that here. I'm sure we can pick out groups that do better, and we've done that actually. The group with atherosclerosis does particularly well, but is that a chance event or is that real? I think we just have to be super-cautious about subgroup analyses. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        So, absolutely. One of the subgroups that I'm personally very interested in is just the time subgroup. So, all of the patients in THALES were enrolled within the first 24 hours, and the subgroup analysis did not show that there were any differences in terms of the net benefit between those that were enrolled earlier, within the first 12 hours, and those that were enrolled later, between 12 and 24 hours. But in routine clinical practice, we often see patients with TIA and mild stroke actually presented to us later than that timeframe entirely. Should we be giving them dual antiplatelet treatment? Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           That's a great question. So, we did an analysis in POINT where we modeled out, would we still have an important significant net benefit if we had started the trial later? And we didn't start the trial later, right? So, this was just pretending like anybody who had an event early on was not in the study in starting at a later timepoint and modeling that out. And basically what we found was that for out to three days, there was still a benefit. And, in fact, if you look at that data and look at those tables, you could even say, even out to five days. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           I would say it's not unreasonable to do that given that the risks are so small and they're going to be even later with later treatment. But I would say, too, that even though we're not seeing greater impact within that first 24 hours versus 12 to 24, it just makes sense with event rates being as great as they are early on that if you don't treat with a preventive medication before an event occurs, it doesn't work. So, it just makes sense that as much as possible we ought to treat people as early as possible after their events. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Very important findings and things to keep in mind. I want to ask you about the top two takeaway messages from the study. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           One is that there's a favorable benefit-to-risk ratio for ticagrelor/aspirin in mild to moderate actually ischemic stroke and high-risk TIA from THALES. So that would be number one. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           And then number two is watch your endpoints carefully. Think carefully, too, about whether balancing safety to efficacy events really makes sense and also whether focusing on relative risks really makes sense. I would encourage us, even though our journals tend to push us towards relative risks and we're more familiar with those, I'd encourage us to get more comfortable with using absolute risks in the way we look at data, but also in the way we talk to patients about their impact. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Fair enough. I remember a few years ago, you visited us here at the University of Miami to deliver the annual Cerebrovascular Scheinberg Lecture. And you had mentioned that the idea of dual antiplatelet therapy treatment of patients with TIA mild stroke had come to you many years back when you were still in training, but it took many years for that idea to turn into reality, into randomized trials, and now translated into clinical practice. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        At the time, if you recall, this was right before you went to Europe to present the primary results of POINT at the European conference. And the trial results were not publicly available, so you were sworn to secrecy. You couldn't tell us about the results. It's been a few years since then. You've already completed yet another trial on this topic. Can I ask what's next for you and your team as it pertains to acute treatment of patients with TIA and mild stroke? Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Well, there are a few things. So, CHANCE-2 is a really interesting trial. My role in that was peripheral, just really advisory, but it's an exciting trial. So, basically it's looking at people with those CYP2C19 polymorphisms that I mentioned before, people who don't rapidly and readily convert clopidogrel to its active form, and randomizing them to clopidogrel versus ticagrelor. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           So, it's going to give us some head-to-head data on the two drugs and the people who may benefit the most from ticagrelor. And that is complete, and that will be published in the next few months. So, I that's going to be an important trial in people's thinking about how best to approach these patients. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           The second is, you know, we're not done. We still have a 5% risk of events, even in those three dual antiplatelet therapy. And so we need more agents. And we need to think about secondary prevention extending to other groups as well, just as you said, longer periods of time, more severe strokes, people after thrombolysis/thrombectomy. Those are big groups of patients at extreme risk for secondary events, and we have no agents and no data right now. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           I would be concerned about dual antiplatelet therapy in those patients, just given what we've seen about the risks of hemorrhage in the existing groups, which are again manageable and shouldn't change people's decision about treatment. But for the groups I just mentioned, risks of hemorrhage start to get greater. And so one worries about whether dual antiplatelet therapy's the right thing or whether other agents make more sense. So, yeah, we're interested in looking at other agents, some novel, for those other indications as well. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Professor Johnston, thank you for your time, and we look forward to covering more of your research in the future. Dr. S. Claiborne Johnston:           Well, thank you. It's been a pleasure. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Thank you. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        And this concludes our podcast for the November 2021 issue of Stroke. Please be sure to check out the November table of contents for a full list of publications, including two important topical review articles, one on thrombus composition after thrombectomy, and one on pearls and pitfalls of perfusion imaging in acute ischemic stroke, as advanced neuroimaging continues to play a critical role in decision-making for acute stroke therapies. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        Now, speaking of advanced neuroimaging and the immense role that neuroimaging plays in our day-to-day practice, let's take a moment as we end our November podcast to remember how the concept of medical imaging first began over 120 years ago with the discovery of X-ray by German professor of physics Wilhelm Röntgen. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        On Friday, November 8, 1895, while experimenting with electricity, Röntgen accidentally discovered a new kind of rays that he referred to as X-rays. He soon realized that X-rays were capable of passing through most substances, including the soft tissues of the body, but left bones and metals visible. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        One of his earliest photographic plates of his experiments was a film of his wife Bertha's hand with her wedding ring clearly visible. This was the first time that the inside of human body was seen without performing surgery. Dr. Negar Asdaghi:                        From Röntgen's first X-ray image to the advanced neuroimaging that we review today on our portable devices, I can't help but wonder, what will your accidental discovery on a Friday fall afternoon in November do to advance the field of science and stroke 100 years from now, as we continue to stay alert with Stroke Alert.

Welcome to Finance and Fury. What is stakeholder theory and what does it mean for capital markets and investments? World Economic Forum annual agenda occurred a few weeks ago. One year ago, the World Economic Forum launched a new ‘Davos Manifesto’ in support of stakeholder capitalism – this year – stakeholder capitalism, or stakeholder theory was at the forefront of many of the agenda’s What is stakeholder theory – like many things, the definition has changed over time – Originally - Stakeholder Theory is a concept from R. Edward Freeman (American Philosopher and Professor) when he introduced it in 1984 – it was a theory of organisational management and business ethics – aimed to address morals and values in managing an organisation - The theory argues that a firm should create value for all stakeholders, not just shareholders Since the 1980s - there has been a massive rise in the theory – as well as an expansion on what is defined within the term value and who is considered a stakeholder From R. Edward Freeman - “The 21st Century is one of “Managing for Stakeholders.” The task of executives is to create as much value as possible for stakeholders without resorting to tradeoffs. Great companies endure because they manage to get stakeholder interests aligned in the same direction.” The issue with this is the concept of providing value without resorting to tradeoffs – is this actually possible? Individuals and companies have to make decisions every day – with every decision there is an opportunity cost – and likely a tradeoff Today - Stakeholder theory is closer to a version of corporate social justice – or in other words, the concept of equity in the world and a merging of company’s responsibility for communities (who are technically non-stake holders) To explain this further – Equity (in the non-financial sense) is about outcomes – the fairness of an outcome - is not equality of opportunity – but equality of outcomes unlike equality of opportunity – equity actually requires the different treatment of individuals and different distribution of resources to get to an equitable outcome – if you have $10,000 in shares but your friend doesn’t, that isn’t equitable, you should technically both have $5,000 – if you earn $100,000 but your neighbour only earns $50,000 – that isn’t equitable This is one of the big changes in stakeholder theory – that is the growing support in calls for equity – Under this theory business firms should entertain all kinds of noneconomic goals and outcomes. No longer may owners simply concern themselves with profit or loss, but instead must consider the broader societal implications of everything their business does. Social media has really helped to accelerate this – when looking at the online presence of massive companies – it is all about cultivating an image of social responsibility – PR teams working around the clock to support any cause that is in vogue – Whether corporate leaders concern themselves with social justice out of genuine desire or merely to avoid backlash is an open question – to find an answer it helps to look at what a company does versus what picture they have on Under the original conception of stakeholder theory - businesses have four primary elements when it comes to stakeholders - namely owners, managers, employees (or suppliers), and customers All four have skin in the game – they either have invested money in the company, are employed by the company, require the company to buy their goods/services or in turn, buy this companies goods and services – at every stage each of these elements has their own money or income is involved in the decision-making process – Each of these individuals are making tradeoffs – making decisions based around what they believe will provide them the greatest value Owners/Investors – tradeoff in that they could have invested money elsewhere – but do so as they see value in investing in the company Managers/employees – trading their time/effort for an income – the income needs to provide a value – i.e. enough to compensate for time Customers – have to see a value in what they are buying to exchange money Value itself – think about the value that a company can provide – even a small one – provides wealth to the owners – but based on the value it can provide to the other key stake holders Today - stakeholder theory argues that there are other parties involved, including governmental bodies, political groups, trade unions, communities, financiers, suppliers, employees, and customers – extension to include governmental bodies, political groups, trade associations and unions and communities – which means every person on earth WEF agenda this year: “It is also a system where companies, government, civil society and international organizations are recognized as equal partners, and where they all pursue a common goal: the well-being of people and the planet. It would prevent economic inequality to get out of hand in the way that it did.” The difference is that those who are not stakeholders – or have no skin the in game now have power over companies’ business practices This notion of stakeholders actually inverts the original concept - grants a new degree of power over private businesses to those who take no risks and provide no benefit – no trade offs and provide no value Going back to value – if someone who has no skin in the game starts to determine company decisions – is this good for the value that this company provides? To employees, who require a company turn a profit to remain employed, to shareholders, who require a company to perform well long term, also generating profits to make money? To suggest that the general public or society at large ought to be a de factopartner in any business, based on the interconnected nature of any economy, actually starts to undermine the very concept of private ownership – which is the bedrock of any functional economy This new wave of stakeholder capitalism starts to imply collectivism as insists everyone in society has the right to an interest in what companies do - and not only with respect to their profits, but even their business practices and mission remember, this concept is being pushed from the same organisation that produces works that state: “Welcome to the year 2030. I Own Nothing, Have No Privacy And Life Has Never Been Better. Welcome to my city - or should I say, "our city". I don't own anything. I don't own a car. I don't own a house. I don't own any appliances or any clothes. It might seem odd to you, but it makes perfect sense for us in this city. Everything you considered a product, has now become a service.” If this is sounding slightly familiar - Societal ownership of business firms have traditionally taken a few prominent forms – socialism and communism Similar to R. Edward Freeman, another philosopher came up with an economic theory on value and tradeoffs in Das Kapital in 1867 – over the years it morphed and changed and then with its implementation – about 40-50 years later once it had gained traction in society – we know how well that turned out for the economies that implemented it Socialism is increasingly popular – using the terms of equity and stakeholders seems to be blurring the distinction between private companies, property ownership and state (governments) – this is the merging of economic means and the political means However - equity and stakeholder movements do not represent outright socialism or communism – there will still be a share market where we can purchase companies that still have profits and losses – but it is an evolution in the system – where the uneconomic decisions can be further made from non-stake holders – like Governmental organisations like the UN – which further distort the nature of a free market Economic decisions require the concepts of trade-offs – however – there are some entities that seem to be unfamiliar with this concept Calls for stakeholder theory are coming from Government entities – like the UN and EU – Government entities aren’t known for economic trade-offs – lack of consequences when compared to a free market – when it isn’t your money or you have no skin in the game – i.e. your decisions don’t affect your outcome, just that of others – UN is pushing stakeholder theory as part of the great reset The European Commission (executive branch of the European Union, responsible for proposing legislation, implementing decisions) recently released a sustainable corporate governance report claiming to find a problem with publicly listed companies due to the investor-driven behaviours of these companies – they are proposing that power be shifted in EU-listed firms to other stakeholders – so stakeholder theory isn’t just some fringe thought anymore Harvard Business review went through this and found that the EUs reports were deeply flawed. And its proposed policies would actually reduce businesses sustainability in the EU What the EU claims is that there is a rising level in gross shareholder payouts, dividends and repurchases and declining levels of investment – in other words, firms are increasingly showering cash on shareholders, stripping the company of assets that could be used for long-term value creation – investment in green projects Without going through all the numbers – this report relied on a cherry-picked sample of public firms. An analysis of all EU-listed firms reveals that both capital expenditures (CAPEX) and research and development (R&D) increased during the period covered by the report However - The EU report implies that investment might be higher had shareholder payouts been lower. But cash balances grew by nearly 40% over the last decade, from €712 to €973 billion This could actually suggest that investments by EU public firms is limited by the lack of additional opportunity, not by a lack of available cash With board decisions – profits have two primary purposes – to be retained – for R&D and other CAPEX, or to be paid out to shareholders – the decision on how much should be paid out comes back to the expect rate of return (IRR) of a project versus the benefit to shareholders – i.e. if a company invests $1bn that may boost share price by 3%, versus paying out shareholders where this payout represents a return of 4%, better to go with the 4% Not only does the report fail to show that EU businesses are misgoverned, it also makes proposals that would actually put these businesses at risk As part of the stakeholder theme – the report recommends an EU-wide reformulation of directors’ duties to include a broad and ill-defined range of considerations – i.e. representing the interests of the “global environment” and “society at large.” These duties would be enforced by non-investor stakeholders bringing suits in court. The effect of implementing such proposals would be corporate destruction - any board decision could be legally challenged by some entity with no skin in the game claiming a violation of directors’ almost boundary-less duties – board members and directors will freeze any decision making without having consent from entities like the EU or the courts that they would need to defend themselves through – bad PR can destroy profits as well a legal payout – however – I believe the report makes the directors personally Ask yourself - How will these firms compete with Chinese firms? Conducting business through an EU-listed firm will simply no longer be sustainable. Firms will go private, or seek to avoid these rules by domiciling and listing elsewhere - Decreases the investment opportunities for us, as more and more companies will de-list The primary reason of being a listed company – i.e. to raise capital – would be gone, why would investors make the decision, or trade off to invest their funds in a company with an EU mandated fiduciary duty – that requires them to only deploy funds to benefit the global environment or society at large Remember – the definitions of what this benefit or value is would be defined by governments – we tend to have different definitions on what is valuable of us – which is why choice in a free market is important In addition – returns could decline – could force directors to cut back on dividends and invest more internally – even if this isn’t the best investment decision and the money is mis-spent – just to avoid being called a short-term focused director In Summary - stakeholder theory means that companies would have a duty to make uneconomic decisions as opposed to trying to maximise value to those who are real stakeholders – or those with skin in the game Under stakeholder theory - broader societal interests, not real value to shareholders, employees or customers must be considered - these societal interests can be real or imagined based around public perception – leading to further uneconomic consequences So, companies would need to invest in supposedly green but inevitably less efficient technology or others causes that have the most current attention, which may not be the optimal economic decision - These actions may in fact provide long-term benefits from a positive public image to a company, but they do not directly increase share prices or dividends It also undermines the purpose of capital markets – raising capital as well as price discovery Markers help investors and businesses to allocate capital to its best and highest uses - however this is imperfect and has hazards – which do get criticised – but if you get in the ring, you might get punched But if a company does not wish to subject itself to director mandates for stakeholder value or public campaigns – they will start to take themselves private Markets and companies as they stand are imperfect because humans are imperfect – there is no perfect system to get the perfect outcomes - But the alternative is nothing less than creeping socialism by another name The ideal economy of the EU/UN is outlined in their SDGs - Does increase the equitable nature of the mega-corporations – where you have a handful of companies that provides the world their needs – one specialises in each sector of the market – to a point they can force equity and not have to listen to the real stakeholders anymore – but the non-stake holders This in turn, then reduces the outcomes to the individuals that make up the real economy – companies making non-economic decisions – hurts economic output at optimal levels – All companies are not built alike – I am critical of mega-companies – those that act in anti-competitive behaviours – but I have the feeling that these companies will do just fine under any stakeholder theory – it would be smaller companies and those people working for them, or using their goods that suffer I’m not saying that companies should destroy the environment and shouldn’t care about their contribution to society – most companies indirectly do benefit society and us in our day to day lives – they provide value to us in goods and services, they employ people, they can make people wealthy through investments – you simply need to participate to reap the rewards But to completely revamp the concept of companies could lead to a much worse economic outcome for us – but not the people pushing this Thank you for listening to today's episode.

From R. Barton Palmer, 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die: "In the early 1930s, Hollywood - beset with financial difficulties and production problems related to the conversion to sound cinema - turned to stage performers of proven popularity to lure customers back to the theaters.  Among the most notable of these was Mae West, whose play Diamond Lil (which she wrote as a kind of showcase of her several talents) was immensely successful on Broadway and elsewhere.  West proved a happy choice for Paramount, because her unique brand of sophisticated if bawdy humor easily translated on screen; her first film, Night After Night (1932), was a big hit with audiences.  West's antics, especially her famous double entendres and sleazy style, offended religious conservatives of the time and hastened the foundation of the Breen Office in 1934 to enforce the Production Code (promulgated, but widely ignored, in the early 1930s).  West's post-1934 films, although interesting, never recaptured the appeal of her earlier work, of which She Done Him Wrong - the screen adaptation of Diamond Lil - is the most notable example, even garnering an Academy Award nomination. "West plays a 'saloon keeper' in New York's Bowery who is involved with various criminals in the neighborhood.  As Lady Lou, West is pursued by two local entrepreneurs and her fiance is just released from jail, but she is hardly in need of a man as she inhabits lavish quarters above her establishment, replete with servants and an impression collection of diamond jewelry.  Lou, however, is smitten by her new neighbor, the head of the Salvation Army mission (Cary Grant).  Her initial appraisal of the younger man's attractiveness is part of Hollywood legend.  To Grant she utters the famous line 'Why don't you come up sometime, see me.'  As a demonstration of her affection (and power), she uses some of her considerable hoard of diamonds to purchase his mission and make him a present of it.  In the end, Grant is revealed as a detective who promptly takes all the crooks into custody, but 'imprisons' Lou quite differently - with a wedding ring.  A classic Hollywood comedy, full of naughtiness and good humor."

On this episode, JJ, Naagy, and Tibs look at The Past, Present, and Future... of three very different topics. We begin with the talk of the weekend Frank Ocean. It's too early for hot takes, but Frank's reemergence inspires a discussion of R&B as a whole. It's a genre we're all fans of and we take it back to our earliest memories and standout records that got us into the music. We also dabble on the evolution of the genre and it's current decline in mainstream popularity. From R&B to DJs, we play the guessing game on who the top 5 highest paid DJs are according to a new list from Forbes. Likewise, we assess the current decline of the DJ scene and how its pivoting today. And finally, we better get used to it: self-driving cars are on the way next month. We weigh the positives versus the concerns and then get deep on how automation will affect society in the long-term.

On Tongiht's show: Bhi Bhiman. Bhi Bhiman (courtesy of artist)   APEX Contributor R.J. Lozada brings Bay area musician to the KPFA studios to share some of his music, and his background. From R.J.: I like Bhi Bhiman. If you don't know who he is, Bhi Bhiman is a bay area musician who sings folk and blues, not in a kind of new form either, he relies on traditional elements of the form: fingerpicking, and familiar melodic lines that can be traced back to Mississippi John Hurt… true to the roots…. but there's that twist: he's Sri Lankan, Tamil, to be exact. It's his lyrical sensibility and a very assured musicality that I am drawn to, and I also think it gets him into audiences, especially white audiences, somewhat unsure if he's real….I can somewhat imagine folks in the audience saying, “did he just sing what I thought he sung…?” But that's not entirely what Bhi is about. While my experience with him has been from this perspective, Bhi often aims to be wholly inclusive, he'll rib you, but you're still part of the family. With Host RJ.   The post APEX Express – April 25, 2013 appeared first on KPFA.
