In Beyond Shareholder Primacy: Remaking Capitalism for a Sustainable Future (Stanford Business Books, 2024) Hart argues that the current Milton Friedman–style "shareholder primacy capitalism," as taught in business schools and embraced around the world, has become dangerous for society, the climate, and the planet. Moreover, he maintains, it's economically unnecessary. Yet there are many reasons for hope―from the history of capitalism itself. Hart holds that capitalism has reformed itself twice before and is poised for a third major reformation. Retelling the origin story of capitalism from the fifteenth century to the present, he argues that a radically sustainable, just capitalism is possible, and even likely. Hart goes on to describe what it will take to move beyond capitalism's present worship of "shareholder primacy," including corporate transformations to re-embed purpose and reforms to major economic institutions. A key requirement is eliminating the "externalities" (or collateral damage) of the current version of shareholder capitalism. Sustainable capitalism has to explicitly incorporate the needs of society and the planet, include a financial system that allows leaders to prioritize the planet, reorganize business schools around sustainable management thinking, and enable corporations not just to stop ignoring the damage they cause, but actually begin to create positive impact.

CZR is coming to life in a big way with around $74 million cash in the bank, some fantastic WA exploration assets and numerous drilling programmes being lined up between now and Christmas. Managing Director Stefen Murphy led the development and commissioning of the Roper Bar iron ore mine in the Northern Territory. His experience in developing integrated mine-to-port logistics solutions and iron ore marketing has been invaluable to CZR in developing the Robe Mesa iron ore project in the Pilbara. Mr Murphy commenced his career in the Pilbara as a mine geologist with BHP iron ore and has spent the past 20 years working on mining and exploration projects throughout Australia. In addition to his technical roles, he holds an MBA and has worked in corporate finance roles in Australia and the UK, focused primarily on capital markets and M&A transactions in the resources sector.

Robe Mesa Iron Ore Sale Delivers $75 Million and Positions CZR as Cash-Backed CZR Resources has completed the sale of its Robe Mesa Iron Ore Project to the Robe River Joint Venture (Rio Tinto, Mitsui and Nippon Steel), delivering around $75 million in cash. The transaction leaves CZR debt-free and holding a cash balance roughly equivalent to its market capitalisation, effectively making it a cash-backed exploration company. With a strong balance sheet and no debt, CZR is now well positioned to fund aggressive exploration across its portfolio. 2. Croydon Gold Project: Drilling Targets Hemi-Style Intrusions Freshly funded, CZR has launched an aggressive drilling campaign at its Croydon Gold Project, located about 50 kilometres south-east of De Grey Mining's Hemi discovery in the Pilbara. Early aircore results have confirmed the presence of diorite intrusions, epithermal quartz veining and gossanous zones — all key indicators of intrusive-related gold systems similar to Hemi. With RC drilling planned through late 2025, the company is aiming to define both shallow epithermal gold mineralisation and deeper intrusion-hosted systems across the Top Camp and Bottom Camp prospects. 3. Edamurta Copper-Zinc Project Shows Golden Grove-Style VMS Potential CZR's Edamurta Project, located in the Midwest near Yalgoo, is showing strong signs of volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) potential similar to the Golden Grove and Deflector deposits. Recent geophysical surveys have identified strong electromagnetic conductors, consistent with copper-zinc-gold-silver mineralisation. A 3,000-metre RC drilling program is planned to test these high-priority conductor plates, offering multi-commodity upside and the potential to establish CZR as a serious copper-zinc explorer in Western Australia. 4. Strategic Backing from the Creasy Group CZR continues to benefit from the long-term support and geological expertise of the Creasy Group, led by renowned prospector Mark Creasy, who holds a 51% stake in CZR and a 30% joint venture interest at Croydon. The Croydon tenements were originally pegged by Creasy for their intrusive geological potential, and his ongoing involvement provides both strategic stability and proven exploration pedigree across CZR's project portfolio. 5. Fully Funded Growth and Retained Iron Ore Upside Following the Robe Mesa sale, CZR is fully funded to accelerate exploration across its gold and base-metal projects while maintaining exposure to iron ore through the Peters Creek and Darnell's prospects and its 50% interest in the Ashburton Link infrastructure joint venture. With a strong cash position, multiple high-potential assets, and upcoming drilling at both Croydon and Edamurta, CZR offers a rare combination of financial strength, discovery upside, and portfolio diversity — all while trading around its cash backing.

Is the transition to a sustainable economy happening to us or because of us? Associate Professor Ioannis Ioannou (London Business School) joins host Kate Webber to unpack the recent ESG backlash and why today's “disorderly transition” must become an orderly one. We explore how investors can push markets toward aligned capitalism - a system that lives within planetary and social boundaries - while unlocking “trapped competencies” and long-term value.Overview Ioannou argues we don't choose whether to transition—the system is already shifting amid climate change, biodiversity loss, and widening social inequalities. The real choice is whether that transition is orderly (policy-led, long-term, and integrated) or disorderly (reactive, crisis-driven). He outlines how investors can re-center long-termism, integrate sustainability into core strategy (not a side product), and restore the original purpose of capital markets: scaling real-economy solutions.Detailed coverageOrderly vs. disorderly transition: Planetary boundaries are breached; social stress is rising. An orderly path minimises harm and plans within ecological and social limits.Aligned capitalism: Capitalism is a human-made system that can be re-ruled to fit reality. Policy, incentives, and investment practices should align with science and society.From stranded assets to “trapped competencies”: Future-fit capabilities (circularity, regeneration, inclusion) remain undervalued until the system aligns—creating alpha for first movers.Investor playbook: Reframe metrics beyond short-term profits; deploy patient capital toward companies building system-shifting capabilities; advocate for rules that unlock these competencies.Integration, not silos: Sustainability must hold authority inside firms; RI can't be a niche fund while the rest ignores impacts.Capital markets' role: Finance the next industrial transformation (energy, transport, food). Prioritise scaling real solutions over purely financial engineering.Beyond shareholder primacy: Re-balance to a “team production” model that values natural and human capital alongside financial capital.Long-termism & multilateralism: Global problems need global collaboration; regionalism can't substitute. Impacts are already “now,” not just long term.Why the ESG backlash can help: It forces clearer, evidence-based narrative infrastructure (not just technical standards) that connects with citizens and beneficiaries.Agency & communication: Engage end-investors better (including with AI-enabled tools); reflect their values in products; compound positive choices over time.Responsibility redefined: Don't just align—restore and regenerate ecological and social capital.Chapters00:01 – Welcome & series context00:52 – Guest intro and PRI's Investment Case database02:11 – Orderly vs. disorderly transition05:38 – Defining “aligned capitalism”07:37 – Future-fit capabilities & trapped competencies10:51 – Investor incentives for alpha & impact14:12 – Making RI core (authority, integration, structure)18:17 – Capital markets' original purpose21:08 – Shareholder primacy & governance rethink25:30 – Long-termism, regionalism, and global coordination29:02 – Why the ESG backlash might be good31:18 – From technical to narrative infrastructure36:53 –...

If you have a 401(k) or an IRA, you may not realize that proxy voting gives you a voice in the companies you own—and it can be a way to live out your faith.As stewards, we're called to reflect our Christian values, even in how our investments influence the marketplace. But what does that look like in practice? Will Lofland joins us today to explain.Will Loftland is the Managing Director of Investments Distribution at GuideStone Funds, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He also oversees GuideStone's shareholder advocacy strategy and represents the firm as a participant in the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility.What Is Proxy Voting?Proxy voting is the right shareholders have to vote on important issues within the companies they partially own. This could include leadership changes, corporate policies, or shareholder proposals. While many individual investors never think about it, proxy voting represents a significant opportunity to shape corporate behavior.However, if your money is invested in mutual funds or retirement accounts—as is the case for most Americans—you don't vote directly. Instead, the fund company you invest with casts those votes on your behalf. That makes it critical to understand how your fund manager approaches these issues.GuideStone's Approach: A Biblical WorldviewIn 2023, GuideStone made the decision to bring proxy voting in-house. By managing votes internally, GuideStone applies a biblical worldview when exercising shareholder influence. This means promoting policies that align with Scripture while resisting agendas that undermine a Christian ethic.As a shareholder, GuideStone joined a coalition of investors to pressure these banks to change their policies. The result? Both institutions strengthened protections, ensuring that Christian organizations would not be denied access to essential financial services because of their convictions.Why Your Vote MattersDoes proxy voting really make a difference? Absolutely. The world can be transformed through Christian investing, and one way to achieve this is by utilizing all available tools as an investor to promote your Christian worldview.By engaging with faith-based investment firms like GuideStone, believers can ensure their investments not only grow financially but also advance Kingdom values in the marketplace.As Christians, we're called to shine God's light in every area of life—including the boardroom. Proxy voting is one of the practical ways we can do that.To learn more about how GuideStone integrates faith into investment practices, visit GuideStoneFunds.com/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Could you explain what an irrevocable trust is and how it works?I'm 64, still working full-time, and I'm wondering: Do my HSA contributions affect my future Social Security benefits? I'm also concerned about how my earnings are being reported.I'd like to know if a Roth IRA is the best investment tool to set my children up for the future.After my mom passed away, my sister and I inherited her house. I'm living in it now, but recently lost my job, and I'm trying to decide if I should buy out my sister's share or sell the property altogether.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)GuideStone FundsBuckner Shoes for Orphan SoulsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) Options: Aligning Financial Goals with ESG Impact Without Sacrificing Return Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) offers a compelling strategy for investors who want to generate financial returns while also supporting social, environmental, and ethical causes. The beauty of SRI lies in its ability to align your investment portfolio with your values, from environmental sustainability to social justice, all while aiming to provide competitive financial growth. The misconception that socially responsible investing requires a trade-off between financial return and social impact has been dispelled as SRI options have evolved. Today, investors can participate in SRI without sacrificing their financial goals. In this blog, we'll explore the different SRI options available, discuss the various degrees of screening and shareholder engagement, and highlight how these strategies can offer diversified, customizable solutions without compromising financial returns. Key SRI Approaches: Screening, Shareholder Advocacy, and Community Investing Socially responsible investing generally includes three primary approaches: A. Screening: Aligning Investments with Values: Screening is the process of selecting investments based on specific social, environmental, and ethical criteria. There are two types of screening approaches: Positive Screening: This focuses on investing in companies that have robust Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices. These companies are proactive in making a positive impact on society, the environment, and corporate governance. Negative Screening: This avoids industries with potentially harmful impacts, such as fossil fuels, tobacco, and weapons. Negative screening ensures that investors' money does not fund businesses involved in sectors that contribute to societal harm. This method screens out companies whose business models directly contradict investors' ethical or environmental priorities. Screening allows investors to align their portfolios with their values, ensuring that their investments reflect their ethical or environmental preferences. While some funds use stringent screening criteria to avoid harmful industries, others may take a more flexible approach, engaging with companies regardless of industry and advocating for better ESG practices from within. Shareholder Advocacy: Shareholder advocacy allows investors to actively engage with companies on corporate policies, influencing their ESG practices. This can include activities such as proxy voting, submitting shareholder resolutions, and communicating directly with company leadership. Shareholder advocacy is generally categorized into: Base Engagement: Base engagement involves basic proxy voting on major shareholder issues, with limited direct involvement in company operations. It allows investors to exercise some influence over companies without actively managing investments. Deep Engagement: Deep engagement goes a step further, involving consistent and ongoing interaction with companies to address specific ESG concerns. This might include regular communication with company leaders, as well as proposals and actions taken to improve corporate sustainability. Funds with deep engagement often have additional staffing and screening processes, resulting in slightly higher fees compared to standard funds. It's important to note that funds with deep engagement often require more resources for continuous interaction and monitoring, which may result in slightly higher fees compared to funds with base engagement or those that focus on passive ESG practices. C. Community Investing: Empowering Underserved Communities: Community investing allocates capital to underserved areas to support affordable housing, local businesses, and access to financial services. This type of investment is typically channeled through Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs),
Fonterra has delivered one of its strongest results, with revenue up 15 percent, and 16 billion dollars in cash returns for shareholders. Tihoi Dairy farmer Richard Webber spoke to Alexa Cook.
Shareholders aren’t financial investors, but actual owners of a company. They have several tools at their disposal to push corporate leaders to focus on long-term sustainability of the business: electing the board of directors, voting on routine matters, or even submitting proposals for other shareholders to vote on. But are these shareholder rights a strength of capitalism, or are executives spending too much time engaging with a wide range of shareholders and not enough time on their day jobs? On this week’s episode of ESG Currents, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior ESG Analyst Rob Du Boff speaks with Sanford Lewis, director and founder of the Shareholder Rights Group and a leading national expert on shareholder proposals.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if your portfolio could help advance justice, compassion, and human flourishing?Aligning your investments with your faith isn't just about avoiding harm—but actively shaping the world around them for good. Stella Tai joins us to talk about how investors are putting their values to work in the marketplace.Stella Tai is the Stewardship Investing Impact and Analysis Manager for Praxis Investment Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.Faith-Based Investing in Action: Praxis' 2024 Impact ReportFor many believers, investing isn't just about building wealth—it's about aligning financial decisions with faith values. Praxis Investment Management, a pioneer in faith-based investing since 1994, continues to demonstrate how Christians can utilize their investments to promote justice, compassion, and tangible change in the world. In its latest Impact Report, Praxis highlights how investor dollars are transforming communities and influencing some of the world's largest companies.Shaping a more just and compassionate world is something that's important to many investors, particularly those of faith. Praxis' annual report reveals where the money goes and how it's used, inspiring others to view their investments as powerful tools for making a difference.Praxis organizes its efforts around seven “impact strategies,” which support underserved communities, promote responsible business practices, and bring faith into everyday financial decisions.Speaking Truth to Power: Shareholder AdvocacyOne highlight of the report is Praxis's work in shareholder advocacy with global brands like Nike.Nike employs over a million people worldwide, many of whom are based in vulnerable regions. Praxis is part of a coalition pushing for stronger human rights protections in the supply chain, including safeguards against wage theft and exploitation. Every worker deserves to have their God-given dignity respected.Praxis is also collaborating with companies such as Coca-Cola and Nestlé to address child labor and wage theft in the global sugar supply chain, advocating for third-party audits and increased transparency.Positive Impact Bonds: Financing ChangeBeyond advocacy, Praxis invests in bonds that directly benefit communities. Recent purchases include:World Bank IDA Program Bonds, targeting extreme poverty with measurable results.Green and Sustainable Bonds from Freddie Mac, which expand affordable housing and environmental stewardship.These investments generate jobs, improve access to healthcare, and help communities thrive—all while providing competitive financial returns.Real Stories of TransformationPraxis' report also shares stories of hope, such as the expansion of Always Keep Progressing, a Miami therapy center that serves children with special needs. Through investment partnerships, the clinic now helps more than 400 families.This is redemptive investing in action. It's about fostering human flourishing, not just financial gain.Praxis also partners with Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) and credit unions that serve neighborhoods often overlooked by traditional banking systems. These organizations offer small business loans, enhance access to healthcare, and provide support to underserved rural and urban areas.Whether here in the U.S. or abroad, CDFIs are helping communities gain access to capital and create opportunities.The Momentum of Faith-Based InvestingMore Christians are realizing that their portfolios can reflect their values.Scripture calls us to care for the poor, the widow, the orphan, and the foreigner. When our faith aligns with our financial actions, even small changes can move markets toward justice.This includes proxy voting, which Praxis views as a form of corporate discipleship—using investor influence to advocate for fair labor, environmental stewardship, and other critical issues.How to Get StartedStart by asking yourself a simple but important question: “Do my investments reflect my faith values?” If the answer is no—or you're not sure—consider talking with a financial professional who understands faith-based investing. Every investor, whether managing a little or a lot, can play a role in shaping a redemptive economy. That's why we recommend connecting with a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA).

You can access it at PraxisInvests.com, along with quarterly updates and resources to help you make informed, faith-driven investment decisions.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'd like to set up a trust that distributes money to my children monthly after my death, rather than giving them a lump sum.

His Perspective on Human Creativity
In this deeply personal solo episode of Great Practice, Great Life, host Steve Riley opens his heart to honor the memory of his father, Donald C. Riley. What unfolds is not just a tribute, but a vulnerable reflection on the man who shaped him through stories, lessons, and quiet acts of courage. While growing up, Steve's home was filled with fables told by his father. Yet these weren't just stories. They were lessons that last. Donald's career as an FBI agent gave him no shortage of experiences. However, it was his gift for storytelling that left the deepest impression. From the Jake Leg story to the tale of Pete Rose, his words carried wisdom, teaching Steve (and now all of us) what resilience, integrity, and perseverance really mean. As Steve reflects, we hear more than just anecdotes, we feel the weight of his father's choices. Donald lived a life that constantly balanced risk with purpose. His bold run for sheriff, his dedicated career as a private investigator, and his unwavering commitment to family reveal a man who chose courage over comfort, time and time again. Because of that, his stories became lessons passed down from father to son and now shared with us. For Steve, these lessons aren't abstract. Instead, they shaped how he leads, how he lives, and how he shows up for others. By sharing them, he invites us to do the same: to take risks, to embrace failure as a teacher, to cherish our relationships, to honor our commitments, and to build a life rooted in gratitude. This episode isn't polished or distant. On the contrary, it's real. It's emotional. It's an invitation to reflect on your own stories. Think of the people who've shaped you, and the legacy you want to leave. When you listen, you'll discover timeless wisdom and you'll be reminded to make today count. Ask yourself: What are you committed to? What are you grateful for today? In this episode, you will hear: Tribute to Donald C. Riley, a seasoned FBI agent Storytelling as a tool for imparting life lessons and shaping personal and professional growth Personal anecdotes like the Jake leg story and Pete Rose narrative for teaching discipline and perseverance Lessons in courage, failure, and taking risks illustrated through Steve's father's career transitions Emphasis on the impact of small, consistent actions and nurturing relationships Lifelong learning and the influence of Dale Carnegie's principles on his father's life and family legacy Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

The White House considers taking a 10% stake in the chip maker, after Donald Trump meets with Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan, shortly after he demanded Tan's immediate resignation. Is this another example of MAGA corporate statism, along with Trump's "golden share" on the Nippon-U.S. Steel deal, his "export tax" on AI chips, and his talk of a sovereign-wealth fund?
