Abstract

Sustainable investing has been growing in the past decade. Both institutional and individual investors have shown increasing interest in the various forms of it. This could be attributed to a number of factors. The decision of the European Union to move from linear to circular economic model has certainly played an important contribution to this trend. The aim of the current paper is to present the trends in sustainable investing in international perspective during the past years within the analytical context of the EU efforts to move towards circular economy.
