Abstract

There is a need to accelerate climate financing due to climate change. For sustainable development, the pattern of investment should also change and follow the SDGs. There are a range of ESG investment alternatives available nowadays to contribute to sustainable development. As a responsible citizen of India, we would like to contribute to sustainable development. But this is also related to the performance of the sustainable funds.

The current paper is going to analyze the performance of ESG Funds and Other Funds with Nifty Index. To bring the research to zero the current paper is going to focus on the risk and return analysis of SBI Mutual Funds Schemes and Nifty Index of India for a period from April 2018 to March 2023. The secondary time series data has been analyzed with the help of various risk and return analysis tools i.e., Average Return, Beta, Standard Deviation, Treynor’s Ratio, and Sharpe Ratio.
