Corporate Responsibility
For us at Oak Universe, corporate responsibility is based on three main pillars – People, Planet and Profit. In this way, we can de-risk and create a better approach for all stakeholders – employees, investors and the environment.
We believe that the 3 P’s – People, Planet and Profit – are not conflicting entities. In fact, in the long run, they’re perfectly congruent. From our vantage point, we believe that the fourth industrial revolution is the glue that holds these 3 P’s together. The digitization and de-risking of global value chains will add stability to local employment trends across the world, reduce waste and pollution by producing goods closer to home, and increase both the magnitude and stability of sustainable free cash flows at SMEs.
At Oak Universe, sustainability applies to all 3 P’s. We believe that accounting profit without tangible gains for employees and their environment is likely to be short-term, volatile, and hollow. We always take a long-term view even if it means sacrificing some short-term paper profit in some cases. We help businesses work for ALL stakeholders – employees, investors and the environment – thereby leaving the firm “sustainable” on all counts.
The Three Pillars
These pillars can generate sustainable value for any firm. Performing well in any one of the pillars is highly interdependent on the others. How corporate communities perform across all metrics has great influence on the speed that the society can advance towards its aspirations. None of these pillars should be looked at in isolation. For example, good governance supports all other metrics. If our oceans would be polluted then the animals would suffer, which would mean that fisheries would not be able to work, which would then lead to people not getting food. The planet, the people, and the ability to prosper are interconnected – and that’s why organizations are expected to include accountability for society at the core of their business and values.
