MacKenzie Scott's Mission-Driven Investing Pushes Back Against Wealth Concentration: Amazon Stock Rich Philanthropist Pledges $2 Billion In Donations
MacKenzie Scott, one of America's wealthiest philanthropists, announced $2 billion in new charitable donations for 2024, while revealing a strategic shift toward mission-aligned investments for her remaining fortune. The latest round of giving brings her total donations since 2019 to $19.2 billion, according to her Wednesday blog post on Yield Giving.
麥肯齊·斯科特， 美國最富有的慈善家之一， 宣佈將在2024年捐贈20億的新慈善款項，同時透露她對剩餘財富的戰略轉變， 朝向使命對齊的投資。 根據她週三在Yield Giving上的博客，最新一輪捐贈使她自2019年以來的總捐贈達到192億。
What Happened: Scott, who received approximately 400 million Amazon.com Inc. shares in her 2019 divorce settlement from founder Jeff Bezos, has recently sold 11% of her Amazon holdings, valued at over $8 billion. Despite her aggressive giving strategy, Forbes estimates her current wealth at $31.7 billion.
發生了什麼：斯科特在2019年與創始人傑夫·貝索斯的離婚和解中獲得了大約40000萬的亞馬遜股份，最近她出售了11%的亞馬遜持股，價值超過80億。儘管她採取了激進的捐贈策略，福布斯估計她目前的財富爲317億。
In a notable departure from traditional portfolio management, Scott disclosed that she has directed her investment advisors to focus on "mission-aligned ventures" rather than conventional stock portfolios that "increase the wealth and influence of leaders who already have it."
斯科特在傳統投資組合管理上作出了顯著的改變，她透露已指示投資顧問關注「使命對齊的風險投資」，而不是「增加已經擁有財富和影響力的領導者的傳統股票投資組合」。
Why It Matters: Scott's 2024 grants have primarily targeted economic security and opportunity initiatives. Notable recipients include repeat grantees like CAMFED, supporting girls' education in Africa, and Undue Medical Debt (formerly RIP Medical Debt), marking a new pattern in her giving strategy.
重要性：斯科特2024年的贈款主要集中在經濟安全和機會倡議。顯著的受贈者包括像CAMFED這樣反覆獲得資助的機構，支持非洲女孩的教育，以及不當醫療債務（前稱RIP醫療債務），標誌着她贈款策略的新模式。
Scott's continued liquidation of Amazon shares and her shift toward mission-aligned investments could signal broader trends in wealth management among ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Had she retained all her original shares, Scott's Amazon holdings alone would have made her an estimated worth of $88 billion.
斯科特繼續出售亞馬遜股份以及她向使命對齊投資的轉變可能預示着超高淨值個體财富管理的更廣泛趨勢。如果她保留了所有的原始股份，斯科特的亞馬遜持股單獨就會使她的估計身價達到880億。
Melinda French Gates, who maintains significant holdings in Microsoft Corp., has publicly supported Scott's rapid-giving approach while criticizing other tech billionaires for not doing enough to give back to society.
梅琳達·法倫·蓋茨保有微軟CORP的顯著股份，公開支持斯科特的快速捐贈方法，同時批評其他科技億萬富翁沒有做足夠的回饋社會。
