概要

論文の詳細を見る
The current status of socially responsible investing (SRI) in Japan is discussed compared with that of the United States. Three kinds of the affirmative screening funds, "Ecology", "Seniors" and "Working Women" , were issued in 1999 for the first time in Japan's history. They succeeded in raising funds more than one billion dollars. Shareholder activists have emerged slightly but not so visible yet. Share holdings by values-oriented institutional investors and individuals have increased in the past few years so that activism is anticipated to become more popular year by year. Overseas shareholder advocacy will also become more significant. SRI-related infrastructure, or social research and rating institutions, networks and on line websites, professional organizations, and so on, are not enough but are under development. The most important, urgent matter for Japanese corporations is to change their minds to disclose information and to have as much dialogue with shareholders as possible. Community investing is omitted from this discussion.
