ESG ratings provide a quantitative measure for socially responsible investment. We present a unified framework for incorporating numeric ESG ratings into dynamic pricing theory. Specifically, we introduce an ESG-valued return that is a linearly constrained transformation of financial return and ESG score. This leads to a more complex portfolio optimization problem in a space governed by reward, risk and ESG score. The framework preserves the traditional risk aversion parameter and introduces an ESG affinity parameter. We apply this framework to develop ESG-valued: portfolio optimization; capital market line; risk measures; option pricing; and the computation of shadow riskless rates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
