ESGs: Big Jewish Money As Vehicle Behind Politically Correct Advertising

Post by bhglasgow » Mon May 16, 2022 1:32 pm

BlackRock, one of the largest investing firms in the United States, is an overlooked but critical influence in American life. Owning over $5 trillion in assets, the company's CEO, (((Larry Fink))), is spending some of its wealth investing in oil and coal industries and real estate, buying up entire neighborhoods of single-family homes. With inflation and gas prices skyrocket, BlackRock President (((Robert S. Kapito))) issued a warning to millennials in a conference in Austin, TX, this March: "For the first time, this generation is going to go into a store and not be able to get what they want."

The investing company has been a driving force behind the pro-leftist/politically correct advertising decisions of large corporations. In January 2018, Fink issued an ultimatum to the world's largest public companies to "contribute to society, or risk losing our support."

The method by which BlackRock and other major investment firms ensure companies will "contribute" is ESGs, essentially a measure of how "socially responsible"- read: how beholden to PC causes- they are.

With pressure being applied to them, large corporations will signal their support for various causes- LGBT, BLM, etc. We'll be treated to an especially obnoxious display of this as "Pride Month" approaches next month, when almost every megacorp will plaster their logos with the gay pride flag to show their solidarity.

Yes, this is very serious corporate/financial tyranny. But, of course, it is nothing new.

Thanks for letting us know what ESG means. It's another acronym I won't be using.

As for "Politically Correct Advertising" being Jewish, spend a few minutes watching television commercials these days to see they aren't selling soap or car insurance, but race mixing, "LGBT+" and whatever else degenerate that madJews on NYC's Madison Avenue promote.

I get a little tingle each day I see the Dow Jones Industrial average drop 1,000 points or more, like it did again yesterday. The more all those saps who speculate on stocks suffer, the better. The ones whose retirement funds are invested in the big Target stores franchise, for example, lost 25% of their wealth yesterday -- in just one day! Too bad. Y'all should have invested in the National Alliance.

How Jew-Run Business Giants Get Lower
Interest Rates for Meeting Diversity Quotas


Race-conscious credit agreements are incentivizing
illegal hiring practices across corporate America


Amid an uptick in race-conscious hiring programs throughout corporate America, many prominent businesses are now writing racial and gender quotas into their credit agreements with banks, tying the cost of borrowing to the companies’ workforce diversity, a Washington Free Beacon analysis found.

The businesses that have struck such agreements include the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, the consulting groups Ernst & Young and AECOM, insurers Prudential and Definity Financial, private equity firms BlackRock and the Carlyle Group, the technology company Trimble, and the telecommunications giant Telefónica.

Over the past two years, each of those companies has secured a lending agreement, known as a credit facility, that links the interest rate charged by banks to the company’s internal diversity targets, creating a financial incentive to meet them. If the business achieves its targets, it won’t have to pay as much interest on the loans it takes out; if it falls short, it is required to pay more.

Under the terms of BlackRock’s $4.4 billion credit facility, for example, Wells Fargo will lower the firm’s interest rate by 0.05 percent if it hits two benchmarks—a 30 percent increase in the share of black and Hispanic employees by 2024, and a 3 percent increase in the share of female executives each year—or hike the rate by the same amount if it misses both.

The agreements, which typically involve multiple banks, are effectively credit cards for businesses: Rather than make a onetime loan, lenders extend a continuous line of credit that companies can dip into at will, either to cover operating costs or as a rainy day fund for emergencies. That means changes in a facility’s interest rate—even modest ones like BlackRock’s 0.05 percent diversity adjustment—can have an appreciable effect on a business’s bottom line.

Companies have advertised these agreements as proof of their progressive bona fides. Trimble CEO Rob Painter, for example, said the company’s credit facility—which conditions interest rates on the percentage of female employees—illustrates Trimble’s "commitment" to "gender diversity in the workplace." In press releases announcing their own credit facilities, executives at BlackRock, Prudential, and Definity say the agreements demonstrate their commitment to "accountability."

But critics see something far more sinister: a form of blatant discrimination that will harm consumers, credit markets, and the rule of law.

"If a bank penalized a company's credit rating because it had too many women or was too racially diverse, we would be appalled," said one senior government regulator, who managed a nine-figure credit facility as a lawyer in private practice. "This is the exact same thing, except the penalized target is white men."

The credit contracts will divert resources away from consumers, critics say, and toward diversity initiatives, where the promise of discounted loans will encourage the use of illegal hiring quotas. They will also hurt companies that don’t negotiate a diversity discount on their loans, because those firms will face higher borrowing costs than their competitors—a dynamic that could steer entire industries toward race-conscious policies.

"Let’s say Wells Fargo will loan to BlackRock at 1 percent if it meets diversity quotas, and the market interest rate is 5 percent," said Will Hild, the executive director of Consumers’ Research. "Every other company that has to borrow at 5 percent is now at a disadvantage vis-à-vis BlackRock. So other companies will have to follow BlackRock’s lead, or they will go out of business, because BlackRock will be able to subsidize its products through Wells Fargo."

BlackRock, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America, which manages the credit facilities for Trimble, Carlyle, and Pfizer, did not respond to requests for comment.

The contracts represent a new twist on the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)-linked loans that have proliferated in recent years. When banks lend to businesses, they typically base interest rates on several factors, such as a company’s cost structure or debt ratio, that drive credit risk. Since 2017, however, some banks have also factored in ESG considerations—a borrower’s carbon footprint, for example—in addition to the ability to pay back a loan.

With diversity quotas in the mix, that gap between credit risk and credit access has only grown. "There is no evidence that diversity makes a borrower likelier to repay its loan," the government regulator said. "It’s like handing out credit based on astrological sign."

When a bank lends irrationally to one client, the regulator added, it "invariably makes its loan terms less fairly priced for everyone else."

The credit deals come as race-conscious programs are exploding across corporate America—and sometimes in the companies’ own faces. Pfizer, one of the businesses that has tied its lending costs to diversity, was sued in September over a prestigious fellowship that bars white and Asian applicants. Programs at Microsoft, IBM, and Google use similar criteria, as do American Express and Amazon, both of which are now facing civil rights lawsuits.

Race-conscious loans will encourage such policies, legal experts said, and could expose companies to legal liability. Even if businesses don’t adopt overt quotas, said Adam Mortara, a prominent civil rights litigator, the agreements could be used as evidence that the firing of a white or Asian employee was racially motivated, "because of the incentives this kind of race-based discounting creates."

That said, it’s not clear whether the contracts are illegal in and of themselves. There is no federal civil rights law that directly bans discrimination in business loans, three lawyers said, unlike discrimination in consumer lending and employment, and lawyers were divided on whether the agreements would hold up in court.

"You could argue the agreements themselves are permissible as long as the businesses reach their diversity targets without violating civil rights law," said Hild, who also founded the public interest law firm Cause of Action. "Of course—if there were a way to do that—they wouldn’t need these agreements."

Other lawyers said the contracts created such a strong incentive to discriminate that courts might strike them down. If a business cannot boost its minority employment through race-blind means, said James Copland, the director of legal policy at the Manhattan Institute, hard quotas will be the only way for it to avoid losing money under the terms of the lending agreement.

"This is an implicit violation of the Title VII," the law that prohibits employment discrimination, Copland told the Free Beacon. "It has to be illegal."

Credit facilities are the product of complex, confidential negotiations between a company and its lenders, making it difficult to know which party proposed what provisions, though all clauses must have the signoff of both banks and borrowers.

It might seem odd for businesses to risk a choice between breaking the law or hurting their pocketbooks, and odder still for them to celebrate it. But if a company is ideologically committed to quotas, Hild said, the credit deals can make a kind of circular sense, in both economic and legal terms.

Economically, the company gets a discount for a policy that it was already going to implement. Legally, it gets a shield against shareholders who see diversity initiatives as a drag on business performance—because, under the terms of the loan agreement, more diversity means lower costs.

"The company can argue that its diversity policies make borrowing less expensive, and thus fulfill its legal obligation to shareholders," said Dan Morenoff, the executive director of the American Civil Rights Project, who has filed shareholder lawsuits against corporate executives over their race-conscious programs.

The counterargument, Morenoff added, is that these policies are very vulnerable to civil rights complaints. If a court enjoins a company’s race-conscious programs, it might not be able to meet the diversity targets specified in its credit agreement, in which case the cost of borrowing would go up.

The calculus is similarly complex for banks. On the one hand, lenders will make less money if they loan to businesses at a discounted rate. On the other hand, Hild said, linking the discounts to ESG objectives, including diversity, may boost banks’ ESG scores and thus attract capital from ESG investors—some of which, like BlackRock, are themselves the recipients of ESG loans.

The private equity firm also owns 7.1 percent of Wells Fargo, the bank managing its credit facility, and likely holds stock in other participating lenders as well, Morenoff said. So when BlackRock secures an ESG loan from those banks, it may indirectly be boosting the value of its own equities.

The result—if nobody sues—is a win-win for both lender and borrower. The losers are innovators, pensioners, and the consumers, who will bear the costs of a distorted market.

"The purpose of bank lending is to allocate capital to its best use so that we can have better products at a lower price," Hild said. "If you subsidize diversity, you are focusing the market on other things."

Leave it the nomadic, itinerant Asian mud-race Jews to concoct another scam operation.

Cultural differences are always a source of conflict rather than synergy. Government-imposed cultural differences (i.e., multiculturalism) in a nation are, at best, still a cataclysmic eruption; and, at worst, a disaster of unmitigated proportions.

Throughout history, there has never been even one nation that did not collapse from within due to multiculturalism. No nation, ever, has escaped the ravages of multiculturalism. In the bitter end, multiculturalism, when foisted upon a nation, offers two choices, neither of which can be viewed through the prism of racial and ethnic success: 1.) the nation is carved apart--divided into ethically pure "Ethnostates; or 2.) the nation erupts into a violent Civil War and one in which the ethnicity with the greatest paramilitary might forces its ethnic cleansing upon the less powerful.

As for the nomadic, itinerant Asian mud-race Jews and their newest financial ponzi scheme blended with more forced multiculturalism--called ESG--I'm just one of those stupid White European ethnic hillbillies living a flyover state. What could I EVER know about finances, investing, loan-sharking, and currency? I simply take these silly green pieces of paper labeled "Federal Reserve Notes" and turn 'em over faster than a negro chasing after its welfare check that was blown from its paw by a 100 MPH gale force wind.

As long as I can find people who are willing to accept these counterfeit Jew notes of debt I invest in precious metals and purchase commodities--hard, tangible assets...things that will become invaluable as America's economy continues to slip precariously toward more closely resembling the economies of the current Venezuela and Germany's Weimar Republic from 1920 to 1923, when inflation was so rampant, and with a currency inflating so rapidly that printers gave up trying to print numbers on bills. By mid-1923 the German mark was losing value by the minute: a loaf of bread that cost 20,000 marks in the morning would cost 5,000,000 marks by nightfall; restaurant prices went up while customers were eating; and workers were paid twice a day. When economic collapse finally came on November 15, 1923, it took 4.2 trillion German marks to buy a single American dollar.
Any White person who can see the threat to the future of the White race today and who refuses, whether from cowardice or selfishness, to stand up for his/her people does not deserve to be counted among them.
