Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) aspects are progressively crucial in influential investment strategies worldwide in each characteristic of modern finance. As markets evolve, combining ESG principles into investment decisions has become a significant theme, reflecting the rising responsiveness of sustainability's role in essential commercial practice and regulatory frameworks. In this experimental investigation, we intend to discover the function of ESG disclosures on investment decisions among individual stock market investors in China. The study intends to update regulatory frameworks and corporate practices in the direction of enhancing ESG integration in Chinese markets. We examined the influence of investment timeline, risk perception, and ESG disclosures on investment decisions. Data collection implicated a grouping of quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with 42 investors. Quantitative data were investigated utilizing Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) to establish the correlations among variables, while qualitative data considered insight into investors' perceptions and decision-making processes. The outcomes of significant investment timeline, risk perception, and investors’ attitudes to ESG disclosures demonstrate the importance of the intricate association of sequential consideration and risk attitude in influencing investment decisions. This technique includes considerate investor behaviour from the perspective of ESG integration, contribution implication for regulating frameworks, and business practices in improving environmental investment strategies in China.
