ESG, Politics and the Economy

The surge in Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investment has raised complex questions.  To what extent can (and should) institutional investors and major corporations use their economic power to pursue political goals? Are there risks of agency overreach when rulemaking takes into account ESG considerations? Professor Julia Mahoney of the University of Virginia School of Law will discuss the controversies over ESG and the dangers of the politicization of the economy.
