SUMMARY:How Do Investors Value Sustainability? A Utility-Based Preference Optimization
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Aydin Aslan\, Department of Finance\, Technical University of Dortmund \nAbstract: We investigate how an investor’s preference for sustainable assets in the portfolio varies for differing levels of risk aversion. Using a sample of 411 publicly listed firms in the S&P 500\, we calculate financial and sustainability returns\, on which the investor’s utility depends. We approximate the investor’s preference by the exponential and s-shaped utility function and optimize with regard to the sustainability preference. We find that with increasing levels of risk aversion\, both minimum-variance and maximum Sharpe ratio type investors seek to incorporate sustainable assets in the portfolio.
