Informativni sastanak za investitore o imigraciji i ekonomiji
Sljedeći brifing o ekonomskoj vrijednosti imigracije i potencijalnim investicijskim rizicima koji proizlaze iz politika administracije Trumpa za provođenje imigracijskih propisa pripremio je Program za upravljanje kapitalom Međunarodnog sindikata zaposlenika u uslužnim djelatnostima. Program za upravljanje kapitalom radi sa članovima SEIU-a koji učestvuju u penzionim planovima javnog i privatnog sektora sa ukupnom imovinom od preko $1 biliona i pruža relevantne informacije povjerenicima i drugim fiducijarima koji služe u tim planovima. Međunarodni sindikat službenika (SEIU) zastupa više od dva miliona članova širom Sjeverne Amerike u raznim industrijama. Ovaj dokument je odgovor na sve veće zahtjeve povjerenika za informacije o tome da li bi nove imigracione politike mogle utjecati na portfolije ili učesnike planova. SEIU nije kvalifikovan niti registrovan za pružanje investicionih savjeta, niti ovaj sažetak nudi bilo kakve investicione savjete.
What Institutional Investors Can Do
- Investors can reach out to companies, investment managers and investment consultants where they are invested or manage assets on their behalf and ask them to disclose the impacts of the current immigration detention and deportation practices on their business and investments.
- Investors, more specifically public pension funds, can conduct an analysis to determine whether there is an adverse actuarial impact to their pension funds from the loss of local, county and state revenues, loss of plan participants, lack of employer contributions or decrease in consumer spending attributable to Trump’s immigration policies.
- Investors can engage their federal, state and local elected officials to highlight any potential impact the immigration dragnet has on their portfolio.
- Engage with trade associations, chambers of commerce and business groups to lobby for an immediate halt to the current immigration policy and enforcement crackdown.
- Investors can require investment managers and investment consultants to disclose which current and prospective investments fund private contractors involved in the detention and deportation transport of immigrants.
