#climatechange #shareholderengagement My latest Future of Good article is about shareholder engagement and climate change. Eric St-Pierre, CEO of The Trottier Family Foundation, explains why his organization is hiring a shareholder engagement director to complement the work of their outside shareholder engagement advisors. It is a precedent. Many CEOs of Canadian Foundations CEOs and Family Offices have been actively engaging with the management and board of companies they invest in to demand climate action. But to hire an in-house shareholder engagement director is taking this dialogue to another level. We'll see the impact in 12 to 18 months. https://lnkd.in/eUSp4UFm

It might seem counterintuitive, but in an era where information consumers are awash in media options, information producers are struggling to communicate. No one is immune. Pity the smaller public company that wants its biggest shareholders—Blackrock, State Street, and Vanguard—to drop by and be serenaded. It’s just not happening. In this article in Agenda, William McNabb, former CEO of Vanguard, advises boards to use their proxies to tell the robust stories they would like all investors to know. One story that would speak to an issue that is top of mind for investors is one of risk management and governance. Specifically, they’d like to know that their investee companies are strengthening financial resilience through thoughtful risk management and dutiful governance over all that is mission-critical. The risk of risks is reputation risk. Measuring, managing, and insuring nearly every firm's most mission-critical asset, reputation, needs to be part of that story, no?

The #RIA industry is facing a talent shortage with the number of new advisors barely keeping pace with the number of those retiring or leaving the industry. The industry needs to broaden its scope to search for talent by finding new avenues for connecting with potential candidates and spreading awareness about the profession. Efforts are needed to attract young talent to the RIA industry, including getting people from other industries into the RIA space.   This challenge is not exclusively related to those providing advice. Firms are also challenged to fill operational roles for middle office support and reporting. More and more are turning to outsourced experts like Mirador, Inc. to act as an extension of their teams.   Learn more from the Citywire article below.   #WealthManagement #FinancialServices #FinancialPlanning
