Abstract:

Only a handful of studies focuses on the relationship between the legal origin and the content of CSR reports, based on the institutional differences. The previous studies have contradicting results. The paper aims to add to the body of research by analyzing the relationship between the legal origin and its effect on the content of CSR disclosure. To analyse the content a scoring index is developed following Clarkson, Li, Richardson, & Vasvari, 2008 and Ong 2016. 45 CSR reports from 8 different countries are analysed and the research period is 2018 or FY 2019. The findings suggest that co

Abstract:

Industrialiseringen de senaste århundrandena har medfört att välståndet i många länder har ökat oerhört. Dock har utvecklingen också medfört att ekosystem, mark, luft och vatten har tagit skada. Företag som blir tillräckligt stora och mäktiga kan även skada sin sociala omgivning genom att ignorera frågor som gäller till exempel anställningsförhållanden, mänskliga rättigheter, samhällsansvar och produktansvar. Krav har därför kommit från omgivningen att företagen bör arbeta för att minimera sin skadliga inverkan på miljön och samhället. I och med detta har CSR-redovisning kommit att bli aktuell

Abstract:

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability have been rising topics in the contemporary business environment over the recent years and disclosing on sustainability have become increasingly important. While some countries have legislation mandating companies to report CSR, other countries leave the decision of reporting to the companies themselves. There are numerous ways of reporting and communicating on sustainability activity and the quality of the reports can deviate heavily between companies. Theories such as stakeholder theory and legitimacy theory suggest that entities repor

Background: In recent years, interest towards Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has increased, more specifically, the economic, environmental, and social impacts large corporations have on society.

In particular, the automotive industry has proved to be quite unsustainable, and is heavily focusing on its sustainable impacts.

Abstract:

I experimentally examine whether disclosure of corporate social responsibility (CSR) investment facilitates cooperation in business collaborations. Business collaborations are essential for firms to maintain their competitive advantage. However, half of all ventures fail. A major reason for this high failure rate is a lack of cooperation among business collaboration partners, known as relational risk. Findings suggest that CSR disclosure leads to greater CSR investment, but does not result in an overall higher level of cooperation. However, CSR disclosure moderates the link

Abstract:

Firms seek independent assurance from accountants on their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) disclosures for various reasons, including to enhance the credibility of such disclosures or to enhance the reliability of management's CSR report. However, there are multiple levels of assurance available for CSR disclosures. The forthcoming clarified U.S. attestation standards re-frame the two levels of assurance on non-financial information as reasonable (higher) and limited (lower). While not currently addressed by U.S. standards, accountants also issue hybrid reports with both reasonable and l

Abstract:

Negli ultimi tre decenni, si è registrata una crescente attenzione da parte delle organizzazioni relativamente ai temi della responsabilità sociale d’impresa (Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR), in termini di impatto che l’attività aziendale può avere sul contesto in cui essa è inserita. Da questa consapevolezza, si è sviluppata anche l’esigenza di integrare e completare la comunicazione tradizionale con degli strumenti funzionali alla rappresentazione dell’impegno ambientale e sociale profuso, in un’ottica di maggior trasparenza. Questo elaborato, dunque, si colloca all’interno del filone

Abstract:

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been attracting attention, especially in the context of the power and chemical industries in China, which are known to be heavy environmental polluters and raise significant concerns for the Chinese government and the international community. However, the impact of internal control and the CEO’s political connections on CSR disclosure are under-researched in the previous literature. This study investigates the relationship between internal control, corporate governance attributes, the CEO’s political connections and corporate social responsibility

Abstract:

Given that Sweden is one of the most sustainable countries in the world (RobecoSAM, 2018), with a big number of its companies as active participants in CSR, we investigate the impact that these CSR activities could have on CFP with a focus on the Financial sector, using in 26 listed Financial Institutions. As we will find out from the existing literature, the CSR-CFP relationship is neither strictly negative nor positive. If it is positive, then the firm will allocate more resources to CSR to achieve better financial performance, and the firm may fore-go or approach CSR initiatives with cautio

Abstract:

The corporate scandals in the beginning of the 21st century caused distrust in the market and a pressure for more disclosure to increase transparency. To broaden the traditional reporting, companies started to voluntarily disclose information regarding soft measures like Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Due to the fast development and popularity of CSR, more companies started to disclose a separate sustainability report to communicate information about these activities. The aim of the report is to provide stakeholders with accurate and transparent information regarding the companies CSR

Abstract Problem: As sustainability grows larger in importance for consumers, so does the demand for information on companies’ sustainability work. In this situation, greenwashing has become a viable strategy for companies to use as a competitive advantage. Therefore, the EU came with a new directive in order to counteract this type of misleading behavior, the non-financial reporting directive (NFRD). Although many positive outcomes have come from non-financial reporting, the aspect of transparency remains uncharted. Purpose: The purpose of this study is twofold. Firstly, it investigates how

Abstract:

Using an international sample, this thesis examines the impact of board CSR orientation, a specific form of board-level governance, on CSR strategy, CSR performance, CSR disclosures, and earnings management. It also examines the impact of CSR strategy on CSR performance and CSR disclosures, a topic that is not yet explored. The findings support the arguments in the literature that board CSR orientation has a positive impact on CSR-related strategy, performance, and disclosures, and it reduces earnings management behaviour. The result also supports the suggestion that CSR strategies are a deter
