Corporation

In 2019, the Business Roundtable (BRT), “an association of chief executive officers of America’s leading companies” decided to pursue a “New Corporation Mission Statement,” to help answer the question: “What’s the Purpose of a Corporation?”

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase (and, in 2019, also the chairman of the Business Roundtable) noted that: “The American dream is alive, but fraying” and highlighted the importance of corporations serving not only shareholders (e.g., by generating profits), but also serving stakeholders (e.g., employees, vendors, communities, our country, etc.): https://www.businessroundtable.org/business-roundtable-redefines-the-purpose-of-a-corporation-to-promote-an-economy-that-serves-all-americans
