Friedman doctrine

Explanation:

The Friedman Doctrine, also called the Shareholder Theory, is a theory which states that the main responsibility of a firm goes to its shareholders. The theory views the shareholders as the vital economic engine of organizations and the group to which firms are socially responsible to. The theory believes that the aim of the firm is to maximize profits to the shareholders.

The firm is responsible to the shareholders and the shareholders can then decide what social initiative they want to take part in. It is not the function of the firm to decide for them as they are there for business purposes alone.
