Abstract

In this exploratory study, we seek to highlight the perception of extra-financial criteria, or environmental, social and governance (ESG) by 23 Tunisian financial professionals. By adopting a methodology based on focus groups supplemented by semi-structured interviews, we tried also to reveal their expectations and needs in regard to these criteria. The results of this investigation show that the concept of corporate social responsibility, of which drift ESG criteria, appears modestly known by the Tunisian financial players. The latter consider ESG criteria as secondary to their decision-making investment.
