A Journey into ESG Investments

This book deals with climate finance and presents a balance between the theoretical framework—as drawn by the most widely cited practitioner-oriented and academic journals in environmental management—and experimental finance. Does sustainability work eventually? This book explores the data from empirical analysis to address this question. The book investigates the effectiveness of Corporate Social Responsibility and its empirical verification by analyzing the correlation between firm-specific ESG characteristics and financial performance, and will be of interest to academics, researchers, and practitioners of sustainable finance and climate finance.
