Edward Freeman

impacts on society and the environment

Stakeholder Value Market Capitalization - Value of Externalities (net)

Impact-Weighted Impact-Weighted Accounts (IWAs) are a way for organizations
Accounts (IWA) to quantitatively assess their impact: how they create value for
all stakeholders.--> measuring value beyond profit
IWAs consist of two building blocks:

(financial, manufactured, intellectual, social, human, natural)
Integrated Balance Sheet
expands a traditional financial balance to include stakeholder
value created over a longer term
→ Line items in the statements are impacts
