This book provides an approach to sustainable decision-making rooted
in financial and economic literature. Financial economic techniques
have the power to frame the discussion of sustainability to explain
who, how, and why sustainability is a growing phenomenon in business
and investing. Financial concepts in a sustainable framework provide a
theoretical basis to approach research and business questions on
sustainability. The framework provides for a better understanding of
the different definitions of sustainability and the role those
differences have on decisions that will lead to the future of
sustainable business. A future which relies on growth driven by
expanding its markets’ reach (demographics), its innovation or
creation of new products, and its capital structure (leverage). Third
party certification and governmental regulation become the constraints
on that growth as well as the proof of sustainable growth. Finally,
the ability and methods for investors to support sustainable growth is
addressed in a modern portfolio theory analysis.
