Rerun: Ep15 "Shareholder vs. Stakeholder Capitalism" with Alex Edmans

For the end of the year, Jules and Jonathan are taking some well-deserved time off, and wanted to rerun a past episode they love for the new audience who has joined since then.Imagine being able to see through all the layers of corporate decision-making to uncover whether businesses should prioritize profits for shareholders or the well-being of a wider community. In this episode, hosts and finance professors Jonathan Berk and Jules van Binsbergen are joined by Alex Edmans, professor of finance at the London Business School, as they wade through the murky waters of balancing diverse interests, addressing externalities such as environmental impacts, and whether government intervention or corporate ethics should lead the charge. It's an exploration of the potential for businesses to harness their unique strengths for the greater good, while navigating the delicate balance of power between corporate and governmental roles in shaping society.Submit your questions to the show here: https://bit.ly/AllElseEqualFind All Else Equal on the web: https://www.gsb.stanford.edu/business-podcasts/all-else-equal-making-better-decisionsAll Else Equal: Making Better Decisions Podcast is a production of Stanford Graduate School of Business and is produced by University FM.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
