ICGN Book: Governance, Stewardship and Sustainability

ICGN is proud to release the second edition of our book: Governance, Stewardship and Sustainability: Theory, Practice and Evidence, authored by George Dallas and Mike Lubrano. Drawing from their decades of experience, the authors provide greater clarity, rigour and guidance to practitioners about what we know—and don’t know—about stewardship, governance and sustainability. This new work explores the theoretical foundations of stewardship, linking these to day-to-day investor decision making.

Governance, Stewardship and Sustainability: Theory, Practice and Evidence is a primer that brings together principles of corporate governance, stewardship and sustainability in the context of institutional investment. The book accompanies the ICGN’s signature training programme Governance, Stewardship and Sustainability, but can be read or taught on a stand-alone basis.

In our view, there are few, if any books that address investor stewardship both from a theoretical and practical level. This book seeks to plug that gap, focusing on practitioners and their need to apply these concepts in their professional lives.
