Title
Re-embedding Financial Stakes within Ethical and Social Values in Socially Responsible Investing (SRI)
Abstract
The aim of this study is to understand how the definition of ethics in finance has steered socially responsible investing (SRI) towards a financial approach where ethics is guided by finance. Following a critical perspective of historical and modern SRI, we advocate a reconceptualization of the SRI paradigm through a framework that re-embeds finance in ethical and social values according to Polanyi's theory of embeddedness. To conclude, we propose an SRI model where impact measurement and extra-financial performance guide investments.
