Sustainable Investment Behavior of Women and Its Impact on Circular Economy Initiatives
Author : Dr. MN Prakasha
Abstract :
This paper explores the intersection of gendered investment behavior and the advancement of circular economy initiatives. Women investors are increasingly recognized for their preference toward sustainable, socially responsible, and long-term investment strategies. By examining how women’s investment choices align with circular economy principles—such as resource efficiency, waste reduction, and regenerative business models—this study highlights the transformative role of gender in shaping sustainable finance. The findings suggest that women’s investment behavior not only accelerates the adoption of circular economy practices but also fosters inclusive, resilient, and socially equitable economic systems.
