The Investor Case for Fighting Inequality: How Inequality Harms Investors and What Investors Should Do About It.
In the paper, Rights CoLab and Oxfam have attempted to capture literature that seeks to address the various risks that inequality can present for investors. The report starts by introducing the topic and outlining companies' contributions to inequality. It highlights efforts of investors that are already addressing the risks of inequality. These investors address such risks as part of their fiduciary duty. The report further features compelling evidence of inequality-related risks both at the systemic and firm level. It concludes by urging investors to mitigate inequality-related risks in their portfolios.
