Insights
Gain practical ‘Insights’ from this collection of short, yet incisive interviews with members of the CCLI team and board. The CCLI’s publications are longer and anchored with the evidentiary detail necessary for objectivity and legal integrity. In contrast, our ‘Insights’ delve into and enliven the tangible implications of our work in the real world of sustainable investment and corporate governance. Some of these interviews will feature the expertise of distinguished guests, exploring the connections of their work to directors’ and fiduciary duties.
Please note that these interviews are intended solely for educational purposes and do not (and are not intended to) constitute legal advice.
