Episode 11: Human Sustainability - the investor’s perspective with Minjia Yang
''From an investor's perspective, it's hard to identify intangible benefits from the financial statements. So, when we talk about human sustainability, we need to be clear, because investors pay more attention to actual numbers than whatever term we put those numbers under. The key challenge for evaluation is that we sometimes have to rely on economic theories to turn intangible benefits (such as a more productive human brain, or overall satisfaction of employees), into a dollar amount so that investor communities can easily understand''.
In this 11th episode of the Sustainable Human Podcast, our host Linda Jarnhamn talks to Minjia Yang, the Vice President & Head of Sustainable Finance at the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI). Together they will explore questions around:
- What's top of mind for investors with regards to human sustainability?
- Are sustainability regulations key drivers of investor behaviour?
- Green bonds, social bonds and is there a market also for human bonds?
