L'investissement socialement responsable (ISR) a connu une croissance substantielle en raison des préoccupations liées au développement durable. Malgré de bonnes performances en 2021, 2022 a vu un retour à la finance traditionnelle en raison de l'escalade des prix des matières premières et des tensions géopolitiques. Les marchés émergents offrent des rendements attrayants mais posent des problèmes de conformité ESG.

Les taux directeurs élevés dans les pays développés pèsent sur les marchés émergents, ce qui a un impact sur des secteurs essentiels. Cependant, la réduction des écarts de taux offre des opportunités. Les obligations préservent la stabilité et l'indépendance financières, mais l'instabilité politique et l'augmentation des coûts constituent des risques.

L'ISR dans les obligations d'entreprises des pays émergents vise la durabilité en plus des rendements financiers. Cependant, les risques financiers et la rareté des données ESG compliquent la prise de décision. Si l'investissement offre une diversification, il se heurte à des obstacles financiers, réglementaires et géopolitiques.

L'étude identifie les obstacles, notamment les données ESG limitées et les complexités réglementaires, et propose des mesures pour un investissement responsable. Les recommandations portent notamment sur la collaboration entre les parties prenantes, l'amélioration de la transparence en matière d'ESG et les campagnes de sensibilisation. Une approche éclairée est essentielle pour relever les défis et promouvoir les pratiques d'investissement durable.

This summary examines the extent to which ESG considerations are taken into account by Private Equity firms in their investment decisions. The study discusses how cultural and institutional differences between the United States and Luxembourg influence these decisions.
The research investigates the degree of integration of Environmental, Social and Governance factors into investment decision making processes of Private Equity (PE) firms in both United States and Luxembourg. A qualitative analysis based on twelve industry experts interviews has been used in this study to shed light on why PE firms integrate ESG factors.
The main findings highlight a growing recognition by both US and Luxembourg based private equity organizations that ESG issues matter but with different degrees of emphasis. Integration of ESG principles is often driven by investor’s demand and government regulations expectations while it is mainly influenced by them in Luxembourg due to the strong regulatory framework as well as their cultural commitment towards sustainable development.
In conclusion, our research findings show that indeed, Private Equity firms take ESG factors seriously when investing, which is influenced by cultural and institutional disparities between these two countries

This thesis delves into the critical role of performance management tools in optimizing impact investing within investment funds, framing these tools within Robert Simons' Levers of Control model. The growing field of impact investing demands rigorous methods to ensure that financial returns are coupled with measurable social and environmental outcomes. The research is systematically organized around the four systems developed by Simons (1994): belief systems, boundary systems, diagnostic control systems, and interactive control systems, with each systems scrutinized to incorporate the tools, methodologies, and frameworks that support effective impact monitoring and management. Throughout the thesis, specific tools such as the IRIS, Greenomy reporting software, and Key Performance Indicators are examined for their effectiveness in aligning investments with strategic impact goals. These tools are linked to Simons' four systems, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding how these mechanisms function in practice. The study integrates qualitative insights from interviews with key stakeholders in the impact investing sector, offering a nuanced perspective on the practical application of these tools. The findings underscore the importance of continuous dialogue between investors and investees, robust impact measurement frameworks, and adaptive management strategies. Additionally, the research highlights the varying degrees of rigor and strategic focus among different investment funds, ultimately providing valuable recommendations for enhancing the reliability and effectiveness of performance management tools in impact investing. This thesis contributes to a deeper understanding of how investment funds can achieve both financial and impact objectives through strategic alignment and rigorous performance management tools.
