Investment in pro-environmental financial assets like ‘green shares’ is rapidly emerging field in the area of personal finance. However, there has been a dearth of studies that could possibly explain the factors that indulge an investor to invest in ‘green shares’, in the context of a growing economy like India. Therefore, the present study makes an attempt to analyse the possible role of personality trait of an individual investor, keeping in mind his concern towards the environment, on his investment decision in ‘green shares’. This study has incorporated the Big-Five personality traits, along with the measures that determines an individual’s affection towards his environment and its relationship with his decision to invest in environmental friendly companies. A total of 572 individual investors participated in the study by completing a questionnaires about their personality, environmental concern and investment decision through disproportionate stratified random sampling. The collected data was analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The results of the present study revealed that individuals largely differ in critical ways in terms of their personality traits, which in turn plays a very detrimental role towards deciding the investment decision in ‘green shares’.

We compared individual and joint risk-based decision making using the Balloon Analogue Risk Task, with a focus on participants' (160 Chinese men) emotional experience during decision making and their Big Five personality traits as measured by the NEO Five-Factor Inventory. We found that, compared with the individual decision-making process, making a joint decision led to reduced risk taking and increased earnings, and brought a greater sense of control, stronger feelings of achievement and happiness, and a reduced sense of regret for the participants. The Big Five personality traits of the participants were related to their risk-based decision making; participants tended to act differently according to their personality traits during individual and joint decision making. Our findings show that, compared with individual decision making, joint decision making has many advantages.
