Your digested reviews of the latest academic research on responsible investment

Click here for the latest RI Digest! The monthly digest is published by the PRI Academic Network to increase knowledge about responsible investment practices and opportunities. The aim of the RI Digest is to provide PRI signatories and PRI Academic Network members with a condensed and practitioner-oriented review of the latest academic literature.

The monthly review will be distributed to all PRI signatories and published on the PRI Academic Network website where members can comment and discuss the findings. This inaugural RI Digest features two full reviews of academic papers. Subsequent RI Digests will feature two full reviews of academic papers plus two further short synopses of academic literature.

The RI Digest is a collaboration between an academic researcher who selects the articles, and a professional journalist who writes the reviews. Andreas Hoepner is Lecturer in banking & finance at the University of St. Andrews and has several years of research experience on responsible investment literature. Robert Kropp is a freelance journalist who writes on topics of sustainability, environment, and corporate social responsibility.

Suggestions of articles to be covered in the RI Digest are welcome and can be emailed to the RI Digest team, who will also be happy to answer any questions. Emails can be sent to RI.Digest@unpri.org.
