North Carolina: Tell your representatives to protect the Freedom to Invest
Special interests are working to limit investors’ ability to consider all types of financial risks in decision-making. These types of restrictive investment policies can affect both public and private investment funds by harming North Carolina’s economy, exposing retirement beneficiaries to unnecessary risk, and raising costs for taxpayers.
Tell your legislators to protect the freedom to invest
Why Does This Matter? Â
Investors and companies are trained to consider all risks and opportunities when making decisions—it’s their fiduciary duty and it’s good business. The types of restrictions in a new trend of bills seen across the country will keep investors from fulfilling that duty, and North Carolinians will pay the price. Legislation passed in other states is already costing taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars.Â
