Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:MSFT<\/a>) is one of the\u00a0best ESG stocks to buy now according to hedge funds<\/strong><\/a>. On September 12, Bloomberg reported that OpenAI is close to finalizing a governance overhaul that would convert it into a more conventional for-profit structure, while granting its nonprofit arm an equity stake of at least $100 billion. Bret Taylor, Chairman of OpenAI\u2019s board, stated that the nonprofit will maintain controlling authority through a new public benefit corporation, ensuring oversight of OpenAI\u2019s long-term mission.<\/p>\n

The stake, which could grow beyond the $100 billion floor, would translate into roughly 20% ownership if the company proceeds with an employee share sale valuing OpenAI at $500 billion. That transaction would cement its status as the world\u2019s most valuable startup.<\/p>\n

The move follows months of negotiations with Microsoft, OpenAI\u2019s largest backer, whose approval was critical to advancing the restructuring. For Microsoft, the deal preserves deep integration rights for OpenAI\u2019s tools and helped ease investor concerns, with a positive reaction to share prices.<\/p>\n

The story gained prominence in early May when OpenAI discussed its plans to restructure its for-profit division as a public benefit corporation.
