Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes

We recently spoke with Alexander Barkawi, founding director of the newly launched Council on Economic Policies, an international non-profit, non-partisan economic policy thank tank. Alex is the former managing director of SAM Indexes and was responsible for developing the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes (DJSI) into a recognized reference point for sustainability investing. He is also president of the oikos Foundation, which supports the integration of sustainability issues into teaching and research at faculties for economics and management worldwide.
