This need is backed up by\u0000a repetitive narrative: because of economic instability, the increased role of financial markets in\u0000household finances, and the withdrawal of the welfare state, individuals face increasing risks. To\u0000address these risks, they must improve their financial literacy, in order to make the most informed\u0000choices and transform their behavior. Individuals therefore seem to stand alone against financial\u0000risks, with states, backed by financial companies and non-profit organizations, providing them\u0000merely with informational tools. In 2015, the OECD counted 59 countries that had implemented\u0000national strategies to enhance financial literacy (OECD 2016). The rise of financial literacy is a\u0000successful example of the construction of a public problem, carried out by political entrepreneurs\u0000using cognitive and semantic strategies.","PeriodicalId":443257,"journal":{"name":"The Routledge International Handbook of Financialization","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114570229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We focus on the phenomenon of “impact investing” in which powerful actors harness financial means and transform philanthropic ‘giving’ into a profit-oriented process. Impact investing turns philanthropy into a proliferating financial market, creating new streams of capital and ‘value’, and incorporating more people and territories into global financial networks. This process is backed by a specific industry and institutional organisations, which produce peculiar financial geographies at various scales.","PeriodicalId":443257,"journal":{"name":"The Routledge International Handbook of Financialization","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133154443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By demanding (short-term) shareholder value, some of them have driven the financialization of corporations and of the financial sector itself. This chapter first characterizes the specific roles that private equity funds, hedge funds, and mutual funds have played in this development. It then moves on to focus on one group of institutional investors that is rapidly becoming a pivotal factor for corporate control in many countries – the “Big Three” large passive asset managers BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street.","PeriodicalId":443257,"journal":{"name":"The Routledge International Handbook of Financialization","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116632161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
