Join us for some very timely insights into socially responsible investing, shareholder activism and the mind of the market.
Praise for Pop Finance
"Superb, remarkably timely, and an extraordinary contribution to several fields. A wonderful study of how groups do and don't work, and a unique examination of how people really think about investments." Cass R. Sunstein, University of Chicago
