Download or read book A Smart Investment for a Smarter Australia written by and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Front Project commissioned this Australian analysis of the economic impact of early childhood education that shows investing in early childhood education doubles the return to Australia. The model looked at the impact of the current Australian system, which provides an early education program for 15 hours a week, delivered by a Bachelor qualified teacher, in the year before school. Our current system offers a significant return on investment (ROI) of 1:2. For every dollar invested, Australia receives $2 back over a child's life. Children, families, governments and business all benefit from the returns early education provides. Benefits are reflected in higher earnings and workforce participation, increased tax revenue and considerable savings in health, education and justice budgets. Early education plays a key role in Australia's prosperity. The findings demonstrate the potential for more children and families to live healthier, happier and more productive lives alongside dividends that will benefit our entire society and economy. The ROI can be attributed to the skills and abilities children develop in early education. These abilities lead to stronger academic performance through school and a greater likelihood of school completion and undertaking further education. School completion and participation in further education are key predictors for higher future incomes and better wellbeing. The opportunity exists to increase the benefits of early childhood education and improve outcomes for Australian children and families by investing in quality to ensure every child has access to a quality early childhood program that enhances their learning and development. Currently a quarter of services aren't meeting the National Quality Standard. Ongoing funding commitments from State and Federal Governments will lead to improved service viability, planning, job security and quality. The current agreement between the Commonwealth and the states and territories to fund these programs will expire at the end of 2019. It has been renewed annually or biannually for the past 7 years. Increasing access by ensuring children in disadvantaged communities have access to quality early childhood education. Currently those with the most to gain are the least likely to attend and the least likely to experience high quality learning; offering two years quality early childhood education in the years before school has a bigger impact than one year. in 2019, Australia is one of the few OECD countries not offering two years of preschool, putting us at risk of falling further behind on international benchmark tests, like PISA.

Download or read book Investing in the Era of Climate Change written by Bruce Usher and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-28 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A climate catastrophe can be avoided, but only with a rapid and sustained investment in companies and projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To the surprise of many, this has already begun. Investors are abandoning fossil-fuel companies and other polluting industries and financing businesses offering climate solutions. Rising risks, evolving social norms, government policies, and technological innovation are all accelerating this movement of capital. Bruce Usher offers an indispensable guide to the risks and opportunities for investors as the world faces climate change. He explores the role that investment plays in reducing emissions to net zero by 2050, detailing how to finance the winners and avoid the losers in a transforming global economy. Usher argues that careful examination of climate solutions will offer investors a new and necessary lens on the future for their own financial benefit and for the greater good. Companies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions will create great wealth, and, more importantly, they will provide a lifeline for humanity. Grounded in academic and industry research, Usher’s insights bring clarity to a complex and controversial topic while illuminating the people behind the numbers. This book sets out a practical and actionable plan for investors that will alter the course of climate change.
Download or read book Sustainable Investing written by Hanna Silvola and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-14 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the latest methods of sustainable investing and financial profit making and describes how ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) analysis can identify future business opportunities and manage risk to achieve abnormal returns. Megatrends such as climate change, sustainable development and digitalisation increase uncertainty and information asymmetry and have an impact on the future returns on investments. From a profit perspective, it is largely about how ESG factors affect the long-term value added by companies and the valuation of companies in the financial markets. Although sustainability provides an opportunity for abnormal returns, this phenomenon must be considered in a critical light. The book describes the risks and limitations associated with the accountability and availability of ESG data and tools. This book provides both academic findings and practical models for assessing the sustainability of investees and introduces practical tools and methods to make ESG analysis practice. It focuses on the ESG analysis of equity investments and fund investments in institutional investment organizations and provides a handbook for all investment analysts who are involved with investment decisions. Readers will benefit from understanding the methods, opportunities and challenges that professionals use in their ESG analysis with cases, interviews and practical tools for both institutional and private investors.
