A chapter in Responsible Investment Banking, 2015, pp 509-525 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract One of the most frequently invoked arguments in discussions on human rights in investment banking is the alleged profit-driven attitude of investors and the related consequences on the fiduciary agreement and its underlying duties. In this concept, managing funds in the best interest of the investors is often interpreted as seeking maximum return on investments (Sandberg 2013).
