Do Values Predict Socially Responsible Investment Decisions? Measuring the Moderating Effects of Gender
This study examines investors’ pro-environmental investment intentions by measuring the effect of economic concern (egoistic value) and environmental concern (altruistic value) on attitudes toward socially responsible investment (SRI). A self-administered structured questionnaire was used to collect data from 469 investors using a purposive sampling technique and analyzed using two-step structural equation modeling. Results show that both altruistic and egoistic values were significant predictors of a positive attitude toward SRI, portraying the greater environmental concern of investors. Additionally, male investors motivated to invest in SRI are more concerned about environmental well-being than their counterparts, that is, female investors. By analyzing values as antecedents of attitudes toward SRI, the findings of this study add a new dimension to the belief system of young investors. JEL Codes: A13; D19; G1; G4
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Emerging Market Finance is a forum for debate and discussion on the theory and practice of finance in emerging markets. While the emphasis is on articles that are of practical significance, the journal also covers theoretical and conceptual aspects relating to emerging financial markets. Peer-reviewed, the journal is equally useful to practitioners and to banking and investment companies as to scholars.
