In this episode of Women Changing Finance, Delilah Rothenberg, explains how investment structures can reduce inequality and build long-term resilience. Delilah shares why traditional finance tools often ignore the real risks — from income inequality to environmental collapse — and how a new mindset called systemic stewardship is helping investors think beyond short-term returns. We explore what fiduciary duty actually means when investors’ decisions affect entire sectors, and how new structures like employee and community ownership can transform who benefits from capital. From pushing for stronger governance in pension funds to helping investors measure their impact on inequality, Delilah is working hard to make finance more fair, inclusive, and sustainable. If you ever wondered if finance can really be transformed to serve everyone, tune in and get your answers from one of the experts leading the change.
