Naming, transparency and charity
The KLD Blog offers this insightful post on what names reveal--and obscure--about contemporary business, including social enterprise. There's a bit of fun with companies that really should have a better grasp on the significance of such words as Harbinger, Tosca and Cerberus, but the real kicker comes with the social investors:
The Children’s Investment Funds: Its name reflects its commitment to give some of its profits to charities aiding children. Its recent, successful battle for board seats at the American freight railroad CSX showed not a hint of children’s games. The issue appeared to be whether current management is putting too much into capital improvements and too little into its shareholders’ pockets.
Over the coming months, we’ll learn whether maximizing CSX’s value to shareholders, and the resulting charitable donations, will outweigh the consequences for those depending on rail service in America’s southeast – and the children of CSX’s stakeholders.
“Activist Shareholdersâ€

How long ago it seems when that phrase applied only to environmentalists, Ralph Nader organizations and the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility. Twenty years ago “activists†were shareholders who used the proxy process to raise issues such as South Africa and global warming. Those shareholders continue to play leading roles in corporate accountability.
Twenty years ago, funds engaging in hostile efforts to replace directors were called “corporate raiders.†But yesterday’s raiders are today’s activists.
