Description
Purpose: The aim of the paper is to explore factors that may limit socially responsible investment decision-making by Self-Managed Superannuation Fund trustee’s. Commencing from a premise that growth of socially responsible investment in Australia is impacted by a lack of impetus in Self-Managed Superannuation Fund trustee’s decision-making; the paper develops a proposition on factors affecting socially responsible investment. Design/methodology/approach: Developed as a conceptual paper, a combination of financial industry sources, anecdotal experience and prior research are used to build a theoretical framework for future research. Findings: Barriers exist limiting the integration of socially responsible investment into the decision-making of Self-Managed Superannuation Fund trustee’s.
