Abstract

While Socially Responsible Investing ("SRI") receives significant attention among institutional investors, the weight of individual investors remains weak. Few studies have attempted to understand this phenomenon. This paper aims to fill this gap in the literature by analyzing the SRI funds market and its inefficiency and by suggesting possible solutions. An analysis of SRI individual investors' behaviours based on a survey of a representative panel of 1050 Ontario consumers is thus proposed. The paper proceeds to study the motivations of individual investors as well as their decision criteria for the selection of SRI funds.
