Abstract
The aim of this paper is to investigate the development of sustainable investments
in the Asian region and identify the role of individual Asian countries in promoting the
development of sustainable investments. Secondary data from relevant domestic and
foreign literature sources, including scientific articles, expert reports, and relevant
websites, are used in this study. The analysis confirms that Asian investors are
increasingly interested in integrating ESG factors into investment decisions and
recognize the positive impact of sustainable investments on environmental protection,
societal advancement, and the overall financial sector. Contribution of this study lies in
its comprehensive analysis of sustainable investment trends in the Asian region, shedding
light on the evolving landscape of responsible investment practices. However, it is
important to note that this study has certain limitations, such as the reliance on secondary
data and the scope of available literature. Additionally, while there is a growing body of
research on sustainable investments, there is still room for further exploration and
empirical studies, particularly in the context of Asian countries. The study emphasizes the
potential of sustainable investments to promote financial sustainability and economic
stability, while also supporting positive global changes.
