A Sustainable Future
Prof. Ken McPhail, University of Manchester, on Accounting for Rights and Ethics
13 Feb 2018
Professor Ken McPhail discusses why rights - human, political, social, labour or environmental - have historically been so difficult to define, and why the S (Social) in ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) analysis provides an opportunity to better develop accounting practices for assessing the costs of rights to society, investors and corporates. How do we begin to quantify what human rights risks pose for society and investors? Can there ever be a path towards an international-recognised ethical accounting standard? How is technology changing our conception of human rights to now include the loss of privacy? For more information visit www.man.com/responsible-investment This podcast was recorded on 11 Nov 2017.
