Tiivistelmä:This article examines how the mean-variance efficient frontier defined by sovereign bonds of 20 developed countries is affected by the consideration of socially responsible (SR) indicators for countries in investment decision-making. As to a global rating of SR performances, it is shown to be possible to build portfolios with an increased average rating without remarkably harming the risk/return relationship. This result differs when dealing with sub-ratings related to the environment, social concerns and public governance. The results suggest that SR portfolios of sovereign bonds can be built without a significant loss of mean-variance efficiency.
