Abstract: This study compares the risk-adjusted performance and sensitivity of 5,689 conventional, responsible, and Islamic funds domiciled in 71 different countries for the period from 2007 to 2021. It provides new empirical evidence that the risk-adjusted performance of responsible funds does not differ significantly from that of conventional funds, and that they outperform Islamic funds. The results also show that the systematic risk of Islamic funds is comparable to that of conventional funds but lower than that of sustainable funds.
