- Abstract
In light of growing environmental challenges such as climate change and resource scarcity, there is increasing emphasis on reevaluating the relationship between industrial development and the natural environment. The United Nations advocates for sustainable development, promoting the harmonious coexistence of humanity and nature while urging coordination among economic, social, and environmental systems. This approach emphasizes that economic growth should not come at the expense of environmental and social well-being. Consequently, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) has become a focal point of discussion, driving interest in how ESG impacts enterprise development and capital allocation. ESG investment, a concept gaining traction in both academic and industry circles, explores these dynamics. The insurance industry, as a key capital market player with substantial resources and long investment cycles, aligns well with ESG principles. While extensive research has been conducted on ESG investment, including theoretical and empirical studies across sectors, the application of ESG principles to insurance capital remains a promising area for further exploration. This paper reviews existing research on ESG investment in the insurance industry, synthesizing findings and identifying gaps. It aims to provide insights into current research and suggest areas for improvement and future development in insurance capital ESG investment.
