Abstract : This paper evaluates the relationship between the impact of Environment performance index (EPI) on the economic and financial indicators, the paper depended on a quantities case study for comparison framework: UK, India, Canada, Egypt, France. Some of the findings are: (1) there is no significant relationship between the EPI and Real GDP Gross rate as some countries had a high EPI with low Real GDP Gross rate like UK and France (2) there is no significant relationship between the EPI and Real GDP Gross rate as some countries had a low EPI with high inflation rate like the case in Egypt (3) there is no significant relationship between the EPI and ROA as some countries had a low EPI with high ROA like Egypt, (4) there is no significant relationship between the EPI and ROE as some countries had a low EPI with high ROE like India , so we reject the H1.4 (H1.4 there is an identifiable impact of impact of Environment performance index (EPI) on the economic indicator (ROE) in UK, India, Canada, Egypt, France)and accept the null hypothesis.

Keywords : Environment Performance Index (EPI), Economic, Financial, Indicators.
