Speakers
John Fullerton
Founder and President
Capital Institute
John Fullerton is an unconventional economist, impact investor, writer, and some have said philosopher. Building on and integrating the work of many, he is the architect of Regenerative Economics, first conceived in his 2015 booklet, “Regenerative Capitalism: How Universal Patterns and Principles Will Shape the New Economy.”
After a successful 20-year career on Wall Street, managing director of what he calls “the old JPMorgan,” John listened to a persistent inner voice and walked away in 2001 with no plan but many questions. A few months later, he experienced 9-11 firsthand. The questions crystallized into his life’s work with the creation of the Capital Institute in 2010, where his work reflects the rising evolutionary shift in consciousness from Modern Age thinking to Integral Age thinking. Capital Institute is dedicated to the bold reimagination of economics and finance in service to life. Guided by the universal patterns and principles that describe how all healthy living systems that sustain themselves in the real world work, Regenerative Economics and Finance promise to unlock the profound and presently unseen potential that is the source of our future prosperity and the reason for hope in our troubled times.
During his Wall Street career, Fullerton managed numerous capital markets and derivatives businesses around the globe and was JPMorgan’s Oversight Committee representative that worked the rescue of Long Term Capital Management in 1998, and finally was chief investment officer for Lab Morgan before retiring from the firm. A committed impact investor, Fullerton is the co-founder and chairman of New Day Enterprises, PBC, the co-founder of Grasslands, LLC, and a board member of First Crop and the Savory Institute. He is an advisor to numerous sustainability initiatives and is a member of the Club of Rome. Fullerton speaks internationally to public audiences and universities and writes a monthly blog, The Future of Finance. His book on Regenerative Economics is due out by the end of 2021.
