SUMMARY:Stakeholderism v shareholderism
DESCRIPTION:The last few years have seen a recalibration of shareholder p
 rimacy and stakeholder priorities. Despite these headwinds\, some compan
 ies have demonstrated resilience and remained committed to a sustainable
  corporate purpose\, including prioritising stakeholder engagement where
  it contributes to preventing harm to people and planet as well to the c
 ompany. This panel will examine the current debate in various jurisdicti
 ons\, including how some companies have operationalised their corporate 
 purpose through capital allocation and long-horizon strategic decisions.
  It will also explore where new laws are requiring companies to manage r
 isks to people and planet as well as the legal ways that these businesse
 s have reinforced their mission even where legislation is not requiring 
 them to. This includes through the use of dual-class or trust-based cont
 rol\, shareholder agreements or stakeholder charters\, certification fra
 meworks such as B Corp and embedding into legal contracts commitments to
  core international business and human rights standards as part of their
  risk management strategies. The panel will consider how alliance-buildi
 ng\, including through co-investment vehicles\, mission-driven joint ven
 tures or procurement ecosystems\, could allow businesses to amplify thei
 r impact and to meet their commitments to international standards.\n
