On this episode of Culture & Compliance Chronicles, Amanda Raad and Nitish Upadhyaya from Ropes & Gray’s Insights Lab, and Richard Bistrong of Front-Line Anti-Bribery, are joined by Stephanie Niven, a portfolio manager at Ninety One, for an engaging conversation on the significance of corporate culture as a source of competitive advantage and its role in driving sustainable investment returns. Stephanie shares her insights on the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the investment space, the evolution of ESG expectations, and discusses the framework used by Ninety One to assess (not measure!) and influence corporate culture. The conversation offers a deep dive into the practical aspects of fostering a positive corporate culture and its direct impact on business performance and investment success.
