John,

The risks we see in our economy today—inequality, climate catastrophe, concentration of power—result from how our systems, especially our financial systems, are structured to prioritize financial returns above all else. At this moment, it may be worth examining the risk-return frameworks we’ve depended on to build up our current economy. How might a direction toward a community benefit return reduce our exposure to these persistent and looming risks we see in our economy? 

Join Common Future on Monday for the third installment of our Redefining Risk series. We'll explore what is behind the risk-reward framework that ultimately leads to disinvestment in Black and Indigenous communities. We’ll discuss the risks of not centering community benefit and the redistribution of extracted wealth in our investments. Find the details below:
