Sustainable

A strategy for real change calls for rethinking processes in their entirety. – Pope Francis
If you’ve been looking for the definitive book on how ESG investing does and does not work—you’ve found it. Sustainable not only describes how more of your portfolio can do well and do good but also reveals in illuminating, fast-paced detail why many current ESG strategies will not. Keeley explains clearly what business and finance can and cannot do to promote better social and environmental outcomes on their own. – Paul McCulley, former chief economist of PIMCO and UBS Americas
Sustainable is a book for our times. It has valuable lessons for investors, corporations, and policy makers alike. – Stanley Fischer, former vice chair of the Federal Reserve
How can capitalism work better for the majority? How can we uplift our forgotten communities, and maximize human potential? Keeley’s Sustainable says markets, government policies, and civil society all have important roles to play—and none can succeed without the others. If you are looking for a comprehensive roadmap for progress and sensible solutions that can be implemented right now, read this book. You will be inspired. – John Hope Bryant, chairman and CEO, Operation HOPE
In a world where so many advocates sell ESG with no holds barred, claiming benefits for all involved, this book stands out, with well thought through and balanced arguments for incorporating virtue into business and investing decisions and the trade-offs involved. While ESG as an acronym may and perhaps should fade, the question of how to balance profits and virtues will stay with us. This book will help us work our way to an answer. – Aswath Damodaran, Kerschner Family Chair in Finance Education and professor of finance, New York University Stern School of Business
