We support the following piece of legislation. We believe that if fiduciary in all things (FIAT) became the law of the land, much of the dystopian world we find around us would disappear in an historical blink of an eye.
“A Fiduciary standard of obligation is required for all institutions (corporate, non-profit, and governmental) to place the interests of all stakeholders, of truth, of humanity, democracy, and the living planet that sustains us, first above their own self-interest."

“Trust is the new currency and the world needs every business to follow the Golden rule so that humanity and the planet can thrive.”
George Kinder delivered the most consequential speech of his lifetime, “Toward a Fiduciary Society”
In this landmark address, George presents a bold, yet profoundly simple vision: a world where every institution acts as a fiduciary, placing truth, humanity, democracy, and the planet ahead of profit or power.
“With a simple tweak to our social contract,” George says, “all of our institutions can be more productive, collaborative, energised, happier, and bring an end to dystopia.”

What Is FIAT?
Fiduciary In All Things (FIAT) requires every institution to be trustworthy in everything they do. Toward the planet, toward people, toward democracy and truth.
FIAT is essential for a sustainable civilization, and civilization is who we are.
It’s time our institutions become models of humanity in all things, never antagonistic to it.
It’s time to change the social contract between our institutions and all of us by building the best of humanity into all systems, so that new technologies and old deliver us and Mother Earth to the best of all possible worlds.
“What strikes me is that FIAT is similar to so many revolutionary ideas in the past. At first, it is difficult to understand, comprehend, or envision in practice. Over time, people learn and build within the new framework. Then we wonder how we ever existed without it.”
Is FIAT Possible?
Truth in politics is gaining momentum
In the UK, a movement to require lawmakers to tell the truth is advancing in Parliament. MP Luke Myer proposed an amendment to the Public Office (Accountability) Bill (also known as the Hillsborough Law) that would ban MPs from deliberately lying to the public, with penalties for those who mislead.
This builds on earlier efforts by Liz Saville Roberts MP, who introduced the Elected Representatives (Prohibition of Deception) Bill in 2022, co-sponsored by MPs from multiple parties including Labour, the Green Party, SNP, and Liberal Democrats. While these bills have not yet passed, they demonstrate growing cross-party support for holding politicians accountable to the truth—a cornerstone of FIAT values.
2. One state can lead the way
When California required strict emissions standards on cars sold within its borders, the impact was not limited to California. Because manufacturers could not afford to build separate production lines for one state and the rest of the country, they were forced to raise their standards nationwide. The result was cleaner air and better vehicles for every American—not just Californians.
This is the California Effect: one state's requirement becomes the whole country's standard.
The same logic applies to FIAT. If a single state required every corporation doing business within its borders to meet fiduciary standards — putting truth, humanity, democracy, and the planet above self-interest — companies would face the same choice manufacturers faced with emissions. Building two versions of how they operate, one for that state and one for everywhere else, would be impractical. So they would raise their standards everywhere.
The California Effect could happen in every industry. It only takes one state to begin.
3. The financial industry can lead the way
A significant portion of people who call themselves fiduciaries today are already in the financial services industry—over 15,000 SEC-registered investment advisers managing more than $144 trillion in assets.
If this community gathered together and put pressure on banks and insurance companies to operate as fiduciary in all things, the impact would be enormous. No company that refused to meet fiduciary standards could easily access loans or insurance. The financial system itself becomes a lever for change.
4. It starts with you and me!
Ultimately, FIAT is a grassroots movement. No law, no industry pressure, and no state legislation happen without people who believe in it. Every person who takes the FIAT pledge, shares the statement, and has a kitchen table conversation is part of making this real. History shows that the most lasting change doesn't come from the top down — it begins with ordinary people deciding that something matters enough to act on it.
