Abstract [en]

India has committed to achieving sustainable development goals by 2030 and has an ambitious target of achieving net zero emissions by 2070. This has led to the rise of ESG and green stocks/indices in the capital market which are new investment alternatives alongside conventional stocks/indices. These indices have witnessed modest growth since their inception in the capital markets. There has been an increased inter-connectedness (movement in volatilities and returns) amongst various ESG/green indices with other indices components of the capital markets and macroeconomic factors. In this context, the present chapter investigates the dynamic interconnectedness between ESG/green indices, macroeconomic factors, and alternative investment instruments. Using the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) and cointegration technique, the study concludes sovereign bond returns, gold prices, inflation, and exchange rate negatively affect the ESG/green indices return while benchmark stock index Sensex had a positive impact on the returns of Indian ESG/green indices. Further, the study also confirmed the presence of structural breaks during the COVID-19 period and ESG/green indices, and the financial performance of ESG/green indices were not significantly different from the benchmark index (Sensex).
