Resumen

Abstract:This paper is a report of an empirical psychological study of the relationship between the ethical and financial beliefs and desires of ethical investors. Semi-structured interviews of 20 ethical investors have been carried out by the project 10 of which have been analysed using qualitative data analysis software. All of our participants faced the problem that, while they had ethical concerns, they were not prepared to sacrifice their essential financial requirements to address them. We found four common ways of dealing with this problem: they divided up their money into core and surplus accounts; they decided that it was enough to only be a partial ethical investor; they avoided detailed consideration of the costs of ethical investment; and they avoided rigorous ethical thinking. One equilibrium position arising from these responses is a portfolio approach to ethics, which allows people to assuage their consciences by investing only a small proportion of their investments ethically, while leaving the rest in non-ethical investment vehicles.

Resumen

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore whether, how and why ethical investment practices of charities differ between two countries with quite different ideological and institutional frameworks – Norway and the UK. Design/methodology/approach – The paper uses mixed methods and a cross-sectional field study design to explore the ethical investment practices of 300 of the largest charities by investments in the UK and Norway. Practices are theorized using the dual lens of institutional theory and social origins theory. Findings – The paper provides evidence on why charities established the practice of ethical investment. The results show that large charities were more likely to have an ethical policy; that charities with moderate public sector funding were more likely to have an ethical policy. In line with institutional theory some Norwegian charities with public sector funding mimic the policy of the Government Pension Fund, and the ethical investment policy of Norwegian charities was more influenced by donors. Institutional entrepreneurs (charity founders) had a more prominent influence in UK charities. Research limitations/implications – The paper highlights that more research is needed on sovereign wealth funds, their investment practices and how they affect charities. Practical implications – The findings of this paper highlight the potential role that the ethical investment practices of sovereign can play a soft regulatory function in changing the behaviour of other investors. Social implications – To the extent that ethical investment practices are construed as having a positive social impact, then this study shows how a government sovereign wealth fund can influence the spread of ethical investment practices. Originality/value – This paper, which sits at the nexus of the charity and corporate social responsibility (CSR) literatures, contributes by responding to calls for more research on charity practices in different countries and CSR practices in different countries. This comparison also contributes to the development of institutional theory by shedding light on the institutional influence of a sovereign wealth fund and its impact on others. The paper will be of value to academics, policy setters and regulators.

Resumen

Ethical investment has experienced very fast and high growth over the last decade. The growth and development of this investment occurs both at the local (Indonesian) level and at the global level. In Indonesia, the growth and development of ethical investment can be seen from the increasing number of ethical-based stock indices and the value of stock market capitalization in each of these indices. Meanwhile at the global level, it can be seen from the increase in the value of ethical investments, especially in the five main world markets, namely Europe, the United States, Japan, Canada and Australia and New Zealand. Underlying this phenomenon needs to be explored further on the issue of ethical investment. This article tries to explore more deeply ethical investing, especially regarding the concepts, basis for decisions and approaches (strategies) in ethical investment activities.

Resumen

The notion of rational investment is not attuned with the idea of socially responsible investment. Incongruence with conventional investments, the SRI/sustainable investment/ethical investment is pertained to ethical, environmental and social criteria (Eccles and Viviers,2011). All investors are not single-minded for an objective of wealth creation. The welfare of society and the environment are among the other drivers of investment. In certain cases, investors do prefer sustainable development to personal financial aspects (Beal et al., 2005). The present study has primarily focused on assessing the relationship between individual investors’ attributes and their noneconomic goal in order to comprehend their socially responsible investment behaviour specifically in Indian scenario. The findings of study are useful for fund managers, regulators and researchers as study has provided useful insights regarding behaviour of Indian investors for responsible investments.

Resumen

This research paper shows the growing power of the practices of sustainable finance in the financial markets. The socially responsible investments (SRI), defined as a strategy to select issuers on the basis of both ESG Corporate Responsibility that financial factors, are rising a growing amount of capital. In fact, between 2012 and 2015 the SRI global asset increased of 61%, amounting to 21.4 billion of dollars. The proliferation of ethical indices in the various financial centers of the world is related to a significant growth of assets managed according to an investment strategy that rewards socially responsible companies. After the financial crisis of 2007, ethical or sustainable indices have generally performed better than traditional indices, which they are derived through a selection of stocks that are subject to strict requirements, the author show the performance of ethical finance compared with those of the traditional sector.

Resumen

Problem: Do ethical investments perform better than conventional investments? Purpose: To evaluate whether Shariah-compliant indexes and/or socially responsible indexes can improve financial performance of an investment portfolio. Sub-problem: What kind of relationship exists between socially responsible investments and faith-based investments, represented by Shariah-compliant investments? Sub-purpose: To discover how two types of ethical investments, socially-responsible and Shariah-compliant, are related. Method: Quantitative study, covering three types of investment styles of four index families during the period from 2000 until 2011. Financial performance evaluation through the Sharpe ratio, Treynor ratio and Jensen’s alpha. Conclusions: Conventional, socially responsible, and Shariah-compliant indexes do not have any significant differences in financial performance on a global basis. However, Shariah-compliant indexes could slightly over-perform conventional and socially responsible indexes during financial downturns. In the same time socially responsible indexes were noticed to be the most volatile during the whole period of study, to compare with conventional and Shariah-compliant. Regarding relationships, high correlations were found between ethical indexes, as well as between ethical and conventional indexes.

Resumen

The review of the ethical funds literature shows the significant growth of the Socially Responsible Investments (SRI) in the last few decades. The increase of the interest towards SRI indicates that ethical issues have become more essential for the investors. However the number of surveys reveals that financial performance remains of an important concern for the socially responsible investors. Therefore the benchmark analysis of the expected returns and management fees of the ethical mutual funds is chosen as a topic for this thesis research. The risk-adjusted measures are used to analyze and compare the performance of the ethical and non-ethical mutual funds in United Kingdom. The analysis does not indicate the significant difference in the expected returns between the two groups of funds. However this study concludes that on average ethical funds charge higher management fees. Thus investing in ethical funds is more costly but gives about the same returns as investing in conventional funds.

Resumen

Socially responsible investment (SRI) has grown significantly in the last ten years. Many international organizations have become increasingly involved in the movement towards SRI. The move towards SRI investing is being driven by institutions such as the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investing whose membership of financial institutions, including asset owners and institutional investors, holds assets totalling US$13 trillion. This growth was promoted further by the 2006 launch of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), with an agreement by leading pension funds, asset managers and consultants to develop new strategies to embed environmental, social and governance issues (ESG-issues). The tremendous growth has caught the attention of investors and fund managers that are seeking alternative assets and markets to improve their portfolio performance. There are claims, based on recent evidence, that SRI can provide investors’ portfolios with better returns. The thesis aims to investigate this claim. The thesis examines the effect of diversifying into SRI in terms of risks and returns from the perspective of an Australian investor, on the performance of a portfolio consisting of stocks and bonds. In examining this aim, the thesis first identifies and evaluates the performance of the optimal SRI portfolio which consists of Australian and international SRI assets. Subsequently, the thesis constructs an optimal portfolio consisting of stocks, bonds and SRI based on the identified SRI portfolio, whose performance is then examined. In pursuit of the objective, the thesis conducts three interconnected studies. Firstly, an analysis of the inter-linkages between the Australian and other SRI markets worldwide. Secondly, an examination of the impact of international diversification on the performance of SRI portfolios based on an Australian perspective. Thirdly, an investigation of the impact of diversification into SRI assets on the performance of a portfolio of stocks and bonds.

Resumen

This thesis includes four essays, of which each comprises two original contributions. Based on this thesis’ eight contributions, we add knowledge or understanding to the literatures on responsible investment, research output analyses and investment performance evaluation. First, we develop the first generic, reliable approach to benchmark research area output (e.g. journal articles or books), which we expect to appeal to governments’ increasing interest in monitoring their research funding investments. Second, we apply this approach to the research area of responsible investment, which is currently backed by an about $ 7 trillion industry. We find that the (quality weighted) quantity of responsible investment’s research output is statistically significantly under-proportional compared with peer research areas. One of several explanations for this result lies in the intransparency of the current responsible investment literature. Third, we develop an approach to research synthesis, which improves a research area’s transparency without experiencing many weaknesses of conventional literature reviews. We title this approach Influential Literature Analysis (ILA). Fourth, we apply ILA to the relatively intransparent responsible investment literature. One of our many findings is that responsible assets with their ceteris paribus under-proportional total risk might appear artificially unattractive when assessed by the most common investment performance measure, the Sharpe ratio, which is biased in favour of high risk assets due to its currently unsolved negative excess return problem. Fifth, we develop a generic, reliable and robust solution to the negative Sharpe ratio problem, which investors can customise according to their specific increasing incremental disutility of risk functions. Six, we generalise our solution to the negative Sharpe ratio problem, which allows us to solve the negative (excess) return problems of over twenty other investment performance measures. Seventh, we develop independent, statistically sophisticated tests of the sufficiency and quality of suggested solutions to the negative Sharpe ratio problem, since all existing tests a-priori assume the superiority of a specific solution. In contrast, our tests are only based on the Sharpe ratio itself and two basic axioms of investment theory. Hence, they are conceptually unrelated to our solutions. Eighth, we apply these tests using two different data samples to all existing solutions to the negative Sharpe ratio problem. We find that investors are best advised to use our solutions, the H⁶-, H⁷- or H⁸-measure, in their evaluation of investment performance from a Sharpe ratio like perspective.

Resumen

Problem background: Swedish savings in mutual funds have increased by 53 times in 30 years, to a total of 3 837 billion kronor, where of a large share is through the Swedish pension system. A growing share of this capitalis invested in socially responsible investment products, where a popular approach is to use a negative screening to exclude companies based on ethical values. Problem statement: Are there any effects in terms of risk and return when investmentsare made using a negative screening for unethical companies? Arethere any differences during turbulent market conditions? Theory: This study is using Modern Portfolio Theory, pioneered by Harry Markowitz. It will be used to optimize and identify efficient portfolio based on expected return and risk under the assumption of a risk averse investor. The key is to minimize portfolio risk through diversification with low correlated assets, for each level of return. Methodology: I have used a deductive method with a quantitative approach. Using Bootstrap, a replication procedure with replacements, 4 000 optimal portfolios have been created from underlying holdings of OMX S30 Index and its corresponding ethical index, from two sets of market volatility. Paired sample t-tests have been performed to test for hypothesis significance. Result: There is a significant difference of risk-adjusted return using negative screening, regardless of market volatility. The risk adjusted return is relatively worse for ethical investments during high market volatility. Conclusions: The reduction of asset through negative screening, is a loss of potential risk-adjusted return because of diminishing diversification opportunities. Adjustments made to optimize ethical portfolios can attain at least as high optimal return but are instead penalized witha relatively higher expected risk.

Resumen

This research deals with socially responsible investing (SRI) in its broadest context in South Africa and includes an analysis of the risk-adjusted performance of local SRI funds. SRI refers to an investment strategy whereby investors integrate moral as well as environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations alongside conventional financial criteria in evaluating investment opportunities. Typical SRI strategies include screening, shareholder activism and cause-based (targeted) investing. The primary objective of this research was to obtain a deeper understanding of SRI in South Africa as it represents a powerful means whereby private sector capital can be channelled into areas of national priority. Data and methodological triangulation strategies were adopted to investigate the research problem, respond to the research questions and test the research hypotheses of this study. The phenomenological component of the research consisted of an extensive literature review as well as in-depth, face-to-face interviews conducted with twelve SRI fund managers and industry experts. The positivistic dimension of this research centred on the construction of the first complete database of SRI funds in South Africa, the sourcing of quantitative primary data and the testing of eight pairs of null and alternative hypotheses. Risk-adjusted performance was evaluated by means of the Sharpe, Sortino and Upside-potential ratios during three sub-periods, namely 1 June 1992 to 31 August 1998, 1 September 1998 to 31 March 2002 and 1 April 2002 to 31 March 2006. Forty-three SRI funds have been launched in South Africa since June 1992 and it is estimated that SRIs constitute approximately 0.7 percent of the total investment capacity in the country. It was found that most local SRI funds combine a cause-based investment strategy with a positive or best-of-sector screening approach. ESG screens were found to focus on the promotion of broad-based Black Economic Empowerment and the development of social infrastructure in South Africa. The FTSE/JSE SRI Index and the Financial Sector Charter were identified as the most prominent drivers of SRI in South Africa, whereas a lack of skills and a shortage of new SRI opportunities, asset classes and funds were seen as impediments to the growth of the local SRI sector. The empirical evidence shows that: - local SRI funds underperformed relative to their respective benchmark indices during the first two sub-periods but significantly outperformed them during sub-period three (the resurgence period of SRI in South Africa); - local SRI fund performance is not significantly different from that of a matched sample of conventional (non-SRI) funds; and - local SRI funds significantly underperformed relative to the general equity market in South Africa during sub-period two (the decline period of SRI in South Africa) but performed on a par with the FTSE/JSE All Share Index during sub-periods one and two. The findings of this research therefore suggest that investors can consider SRI funds as part of a well-diversified investment strategy. It is strongly recommended that a Social Investment Forum be established in South Africa to address the educational needs of stakeholders in the local SRI sector. It is also recommended that local asset managers adopt a focused differentiation strategy to take advantage of the growing SRI sector in South Africa.

Resumen

Idag föreligger ett stort intresse för att placera i etiska fonder, men det råder delade meningar om vad en etisk fond innebär. Det finns ingen universell applicerbar kod utan det är upp till fondbolagen själva att definiera vad som är etiskt för dem. Det är således svårt att fastställa något entydigt begrepp för vad som kan anses vara etiskt eller inte då begreppet etik är såväl subjektivt och relativt samt varierar över tiden. Allt oftare uppdagas hur företag världen över kopplas till svåra missförhållanden eller är inblandade i oetiska verksamheter. Flera av dessa företag ägs indirekt av oss konsumenter genom våra pensionsmedel och privat sparande i fonder. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka vad som menas med etisk fond. Uppsatsen kommer att genomföras utifrån en kvalitativ ansats med intervjuer av utvalda fondbolag på den svenska fondmarknaden. En ökad transparens är önskvärt för att se hur fondbolagen arbetar. Sammanfattningsvis har konsumenterna ett relativt stort ansvar att undersöka vad som faktiskt gömmer sig bakom respektive fondnamn om de vill ha kontroll över sina sparpengar.

Resumen

Development and all issues that pertain to it, has been a hot topic since the turn of the century. Governments have set up programs and agendas that they would like to follow to implement development in areas such as social, education, health and environment. Traditionally developing of communities has always been a government’s mandate. Corporate society established that to live in harmony with its neighbours, it was better to plough back into the community. That said it was paramount to see how the both development and CSI/R can be intertwined reasons behind this qualitative research were to establish if the Kenya Pipeline Company CSI initiatives can be used to promote development. The research methodology used was interviews, distribution of questionnaire and document review. These methods were settled on since they allowed the researcher to gain more knowledge and a greater understanding of the data collected and in it’s the natural setting. Kenya Pipeline Company’s CSI/R policy is not quite in place and development could be pegged to the ethnic group or geographical region that the Managing Director comes from. Stakeholders do not quite contribute and are seldom involved in the decision making process. The first benefactors are the communities that fall by the way- leave of the pipeline moving out. A conclusive policy document needs to be put in place to curb the powers given to a single individual and to be able to involve the various stakeholders so as to ensure sustainable development initiatives.

Resumen

There is an increasing demand for investments based on religious basics since these ethical investments mean much more stable financial chances. The economic and financial risk of a fragmented reserve banking system has become obvious by the failure of the neoliberal market economy. Therefore, world economy has to reform the entire credit and bank system that could only be achieved by alternative methods. The Islamic bank is a particularly young alternative opportunity that is based on more equitable and moral principles. However, bringing back the Christian-based banking system that looks back on old traditions and that became extinct could also be an alternative. One of the major principles of the Christian-based banking system is that it is not allowed to borrow and invest in worthless bonds without provision. For the Islamic bank, for instance, speculative affairs that are of high risk and monetary derivates are forbidden, there is voluntary risk management. Risk management and risk-sharing practices based on alternative religious principles will also be analyzed. Due to its procyclic-anticyclic characteristics, the traditional bank system deepens the crisis while the religious bank systems are against the crisis by alleviating the burdens of the debtor. The authors describe and analyze crisis management solutions with a sort of comparative method.

Resumen

The paper presents results of the new Social and Environmental Report of the European Leather Industry (SER 2020) that follows up on the exercise done in 2012. Based on an intensive survey amongst European tanneries, led by COTANCE and industriAll-European Trade Union, company data on social indicators and environmental parameters that reflect the performance of the tanning sector were collected. Companies’ data, anonymised and aggregated at national level and centrally computed at European level are presented and analysed, versus 2012 data, where appropriate (in terms of average values). Social Footprint of the EU Tanning Industry (employment contracts, age distribution in the EU force, staff retention, education, citizenship, gender balance) and Environmental Footprint of the EU Tanning Industry (chemical consumption, energy consumption, breakdown of energy sources, water consumption, removal of water pollution, waste generation, solvent consumption, costs and investments) are thoroughly discussed. Finally, Sustainability priorities / Ethical issues for the value chain and Objectives and challenges for the future are communicated in order to demonstrate the continuous striving of Europe’s leather sector towards excellence in social and environmental performance.

Resumen

Abstract The term "ethics" as a set of rules is used in the professional world as well as in professional societies to establish what is acceptable or not, in terms of ethical professional behavior. This paper explores how the practices and codification of practices related to professional practice have evolved in the Oil and Gas sector, with emphasis on professional societies. The analysis was performed summarizing the history of ethics in general, as applicable to the Oil and Gas sector. Then, research was conducted on how the several important corporations in the upstream or downstream of oil and gas initiated and evolved their own ethical codes. We also explored how the academic world has engaged in issuing Codes of Ethics that govern the behavior of both students and faculty members at the institutional and department level. A special emphasis was placed in the investigation of the evolution of the Code of Ethics of the main professional societies and organizations related to the Oil and Gas Sector, centered on SPE, and including AAPG (the American Association of Petroleum Geologists), SEG (the Societu of Exploration Geophsyicists), EAGE (the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers) and other relevant ones. The conclusions point to a realization that the ethical codes analyzed evolved, following societal changes, in relation to under-represented groups in terms of gender, race, nationality, age, religion and ethnicity, as well as in relation to the expansion of the industry to more and new geographical areas. Currently, almost all organizations and professional societies have a Code of Ethics that profiles their main values and sets a frame for what is or not appropriate in advancing their activities. The Code of Ethics were gradually expanded, spelling out further specific rules, often called "Statements" like "Sexual Harassment," "Bribery" and "Human Rights" statements, aiming to address a variety of specific issues. The Code of Ethics, along the specific self-disclosure statements, are the ethical framework of organizations in Oil and Gas for guiding employees and stakeholders towards: –Alignment with Corporate and/or Academic Values.–Clarification of the Value Proposition for employees and/or prospective students.–Response to societal trends like "MeToo," "BlackLivesMatter," and others.–Rejection of modern issues affecting some industrial segments like Modern Work Slavery.–Enhancement of the corporate prestige and rankings in ESG (environmental, Society and Governance) grounding disclosures useful for investment decisions Our paper is a contribution to share information and raise our collective awareness in the profession about what is the current practice in Oil and Gas regarding Codes of Ethics of Corporations and Professional Societies, how they have evolved, and what are the current and future challenges and opportunities, to expand solid and useful ethics frameworks in the context of the present rapid social transformation.

Resumen

The activity of companies with foreign capital is more often in the center of attention of the public opinion, researchers and public authorities considering the positive effects but also the negative externalities that it generates on the economies of the host countries. With the liberalization of capital movements, FDI was consider the panacea that could solve all economic, environmental and social problems in the host less developed countries, but the reality is much more complex. In order to test if foreign direct investment (FDI) is caused by competitiveness in case of Romania, we considered FDI inflows externalities for national economy, net inflows (% of GDP) and Competitiveness index for the time period 2007-2018. The econometric methodology used to model FDI and Competitiveness Index is Granger Causality. The results of the study suggest that there is a unidirectional causality, flowing from Competitiveness Index to foreign direct investment. Thus, in case of Romania, foreign direct investment represents the result of competitiveness, FDI does not influence Competitiveness index.

Resumen

" Since 2010, there has been an exponential growth in health data and health information technologies, such as electronic health records (EHRs), and AI-enabled medical tools. Despite the growth and investment in these technologies, they have had few positive effects on health outcomes, especially for marginalized populations. This review begins by addressing common rhetorical and ethical responses to inequities in health technologies, such as the digital divide and data bias frames. It then problematizes both approaches before proposing that examining racialization, or the creation and circulation of racial hierarchies, can contribute to a more comprehensive framework for facilitating health equity in health information technology."

Resumen

What local-level factors, or horizontal pressures, can improve learning outcomes in government schools in developing countries, when the political elites and education bureaucracy are not exerting enough vertical pressure on principals and teachers to ensure improvement in learning outcomes? Existing research suggests the role of principals, investment in teacher training or improving financial incentives, and increased community participation as possible ways to enhance performance of teachers and principals. Assessing a 25-year state-school improvement programme run by CARE, a prominent education foundation in Pakistan, which has demonstrated visible success in improving student enrolment and performance in national matriculation exams and transition to college and university education, this paper shows that while principals can play a critical role in improving school performance, the real challenge is to suppress the ‘anti-work’ culture that prevails in state schools in countries where appointments of teachers as well as principals remain a source of political patronage. The paper shows that in such contexts NGOs, if given the contractual authority to monitor performance, can act as effective third-party enforcers to help shift the balance in favour of ‘pro-work’ teachers. However, for systematic long-term improvement in school performance, this support needs to come via the district-level education authorities—and this, as we shall see, is often also missing in such contexts. The findings from this study thus support growing evidence on the challenges confronting efforts to strengthen the short route of accountability in countries where the long route of accountability is weak. In such a political-economy context, even committed principals are unlikely to be able to shift school culture in favour of a ‘pro-work’ ethic unless there are wide-ranging reforms in the wider political and bureaucratic culture.
