Exploring Sustainable and Responsible Investment: Stakeholders’ value exchange

Abstract:

 This paper presents an updated analysis of the sustainable and responsible investment (SRI) value network. SRI could be defined as the type of investment which aims to achieve financial returns while performing in terms of extra-financial aspects, such as social, environmental, governance, and ethical objectives. In recent years, the interest in SRI has been growing and new SRI-specific actors and roles have emerged. This paper aims to contribute to achieving better understanding of the specificity of SRI fund industry and involved stakeholders. It contributes to the formalization of the roles within the SRI- specific value chain with goal and value modeling languages.
