Full textIn the first chapter, we begin with a survey on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in economics, management and business literatures. Then we identify the peculiarities of the agents operating in the social banking sector. Thereafter, we compare and contrast the contributions focused on the behavior of social banks with those available on traditional lenders. The second chapter compares the refinancing behavior of social banks with that of standard lenders when the former have inside information on the quality of the borrowers. This entails the renowned hold-up problem which, however, can be mitigated by the costs of the ethical screening and monitoring activities of social banks. As a result, standard banks may offer better loan contracts and attract high quality borrowers. The third chapter proposes a spatial competition model to investigate how standard and social banks set their interest rates when they compete in the deposit and loan markets. As the empirical evidence suggests, social depositors are willing to accept returns lower than the market level. Therefore we determine under which conditions social banks pay deposit rates lower than those of standard banks and when this is compatible with lower rates also on loans.

Full textCorporate Social Responsibility is gaining prominence in business, in government, in society and in the academic field. Nevertheless, it is still not possible to identify a common definition or a set of core principles about the subject. Researchers still debate the means of being socially responsible or even whether companies should have social responsibilities. Another discussion refers to the financial impacts of Corporate Social Responsibility. While some authors claim that the adoption of social and environmental practices improve financial performance, others argue that the practices generates costs that businesses will never recover. Given this discussion, several authors argue that the mere engagement in activities considered socially responsible, does not guarantee the generation of benefits to businesses, but rather whether the practices are aligned with the Strategy. Thus, the present work aims to study how the alignment between Corporate Social Responsibility and Strategy is designed. To reach that goal, the theoretical foundation was made on the subject, followed by a field research in a bank company, recognized for best practices in Corporate Social Responsibility. The study is exploratory, qualitative approached and conducted by Case Study. Primary data were collected through semi-structured interviews and secondary data through the Sustainability Reports of the investigated company and through reports from other institutions that work with the theme in the banking sector. The results showed that, currently, the company deals with the Corporate Social Responsibility through the concept of Sustainability and adopts a proactive posture. Those responsible for the strategic thinking of the company recognize the importance of the issue and promote changes in their strategies, changing long-term visions, organizational structures and business practices. The process of aligning the subject with the Strategy of the company is done primarily through dialogue with stakeholders, the choice of issues considered strategic, the involvement of senior management and the various business areas and monitoring results. The study contributes to the formation of the construct of Corporate Social Responsibility and the distinction between this concept and Sustainability. Moreover, contribute to increase the knowledge about the strategic implications of Corporate Social Responsibility and the complex relationship between Financial Performance and Social Performance. The survey also indicates some barriers to the management of social and environmental issues. The main one is the lack of knowledge and practical tools to deal with the issue.

There is a noticeable growing society’s preoccupation with ethics, coming partly from the numerous scandals that came to light in the corporate world lately, especially in the financial sector in which the repercussions of embezzlements usually have a broader impact for the society than they may have when happening in other sector of activities. As another consequence, we can observe a raising interest of the academics in studying business ethics. Nevertheless, despite the very frequent use of the term and concepts related to this subject, there is still no consensus on a common definition of business ethics. It belongs to each corporation to define what it considers as corporate ethics. Therefore, in order to understand better what is behind ethics, it is necessary to go back to its definition, explain its evolution, put it in our contemporary context, and then apply it to the field of interest. Within the banking sector, ethics refers mainly to a legal aspect, but also took the path of corporate social responsibility development within the corporations, through various practices. The literature on this matter underlines that the traditional banking corporations’ approach of ethics disconnects it from their core business, considering that it does not belong to the heart of their activity. Actually, corporations respond to the same institutional isomorphism mechanisms that lead them to adopt some practices with the objective of achieving legitimacy within the society. Contrary to these traditional banking corporations, the banks qualified as ethical within the literature have in common to structure their activities on or around ethics, distinguishing themselves from other banks by having as main goal to be ethical. The Brazilian bank, Itaú Unibanco, one of the biggest traditional bank in the world in terms of market value, was progressively perceived as highly preoccupied with ethics and was recently designated as the most sustainable bank in the world by the Financial Times Magazine. Itaú Unibanco designed and implemented a program of ethics, which combines a theoretical component 8 (with guidelines, rules, principles and code of ethics), used as a framework for a practical component (with particular organizational structure and practices). Thanks to this characteristic, o Itaú Unibanco placed itself as a pro active actor that can be qualified of champion of innovation in the banking sector concerning ethics’ institutionalization.
Existe uma preocupação crescente da sociedade com a ética, devida em parte aos numerosos escândalos que surgiram no mundo corporativo ultimamente, em particular no setor financeiro em que as repercussões de malversações têm geralmente um impacto maior para a sociedade do que podem ter quando acontecem em outro setor de atividade. Outra consequência é o interesse cada vez maior dos acadêmicos em estudar ética dos negócios. Porém, a pesar do uso frequente do termo ética e dos conceitos relacionados, não existe ainda um consenso sobre uma definição comum de ética dos negócios. Pertence a cada corporação definir o que considera ser ética dos negócios. Portanto, para entender melhor o que tem por trás do termo ética, é preciso voltar a sua definição, explicar a sua evolução, colocá-lo dentro do nosso contexto contemporâneo, para depois aplicá-lo à área de interesse. Para o setor bancário, ética se refere mais ao aspecto legal, mas também faz referência ao desenvolvimento da responsabilidade social corporativa dentro das corporações através de diferentes práticas. A literatura a respeito ressalta que a abordagem da ética pelas corporações bancárias tradicionais desconecta a ética do foco de negócio, considerando que não pertence ao centro da sua atividade. De fato, as corporações respondem aos mesmos mecanismos isomorfos institucionais, os quais as levam a adotar práticas com o objetivo de conseguir legitimidade dentro da sociedade. Ao contrário dessas corporações bancárias tradicionais, os bancos qualificados como éticos pela literatura, tem em comum o fato de estruturar as suas atividades sobre ou em volta da ética, diferenciando-se dos outros bancos por ter como principal objetivo ser ético. O banco Brasileiro Itaú Unibanco, um dos maiores bancos tradicionais do mundo em termos de valor de mercado, foi percebido aos poucos como um banco muito preocupado com a ética, e foi recentemente reconhecido como o banco mais sustentável do mundo pela revista Financial Times. O Itaú 5 Unibanco desenhou e implementou um programa de ética, o qual junta um componente teórico (com diretrizes, regras e princípios e um código de ética), usado como um suporte para o componente prático (estrutura organizacional particular e práticas cotidianas). Esse programa levou o Banco Itaú a ser campeão inovador na institucionalização da ética dentro do setor bancário.

Full textCorporate social responsibility (CSR) has been a concept of much research in recent decades, although there is a need to deepen into the study of its benefits as a marketing tool. In order to comply with this objective, this dissertation keeps its focus on the relationship between corporate social responsibility image and customer behaviour, taking as a basis a wide review of the existing literature. Both qualitative and quantitative methods are used. Specifically, a qualitative research is carried out to study corporate identity while a quantitative research is designed to study corporate social responsibility image, its formation process and its relationship to consumer behaviour. The research takes place in the banking service sector, one of the greatest investors in corporate social responsibility in the world.

Full textThe scope of this theses is to understand the dynamics of the institutionalization of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) within the Field of Banking Organizations in Brazil. Using the social analysis model put forward by Boltanski and Chiapello (1999) and reverting to the conceptual basis of the institutional approach and using Bourdieu¿s notion of interest (1996), we arrive at an analytical model that enabled us to assess CSR as part of a movement of displacement of capitalism. The theory we propose here is that with the institutionalization of CSR, actions are justified in terms of the common good, being legitimized by structural confirmations and arrangements and, at the same time, heeding the inherent interests of the Field. The means used for comprehension of the dynamics of the institutionalization of CSR were: (1) the analysis of the construction of the phenomenon of CSR, which enabled us to identify critical factors and events, leaders in Brazil and associated ratification of the institutionalization of this social practice; (2) the description of the Field of Banking Organizations and the identification of the elements of its CSR in History, which are essential steps for understanding the justifications for insertion of the Field in the movement towards CSR; (3) the identification of key players in the institutionalization of the social practice within the Field, as well as the categorization of practical actions considered socially responsible to be found in the organizations researched, analyzing them in terms of justifications and interests; (4) the analysis of the dissemination and sedimentation of structural arrangements linked to CSR in the organizations of the Field, such as specific areas created to deal with CSR, social reports and organizational websites. The field research assessed some 30 organizations and included documentary analysis and interviews. We noted that, from being a marginal and isolated action, over the course of the past decade CSR has become a structured action in banking organizations, while at the same time becoming transformed into a social value, capable of contributing to the legitimacy of the Field. In this respect, research showed that retail banks are those that are inserted in the movement towards CSR, which ratifies the thesis of the phenomenon as displacement of capitalism.
O objetivo do trabalho é a compreensão da dinâmica de institucionalização da Responsabilidade Social Empresarial (RSE) no Campo das Organizações Bancárias no Brasil. Utilizando modelo de análise social proposto por Boltanski e Chiapello (1999), resgatando as bases conceituais da abordagem institucional e utilizando a noção de interesse em Bourdieu (1996), chegamos a um modelo de análise que possibilitou-nos compreender a RSE como parte de um movimento de deslocamento do capitalismo. Defendemos a tese de que na institucionalização da RSE, as ações são justificadas em termos do bem comum, legitimando-se via provas e arranjos estruturais e, ao mesmo tempo, atendendo a interesses inerentes ao Campo. Os caminhos utilizados para a compreensão da dinâmica de institucionalização da RSE foram: (1) a análise da construção do fenômeno da RSE, que possibilitou-nos identificar fatores e eventos críticos, líderes no Brasil e provas associadas à institucionalização desta prática social; (2) a descrição do Campo das Organizações Bancárias e a identificação de elementos de sua RSE na História, passos necessários para a compreensão das justificações para inserção do Campo no movimento pela RSE; (3) a identificação de atores-chave na institucionalização da prática social no Campo, bem como a categorização de ações práticas denominadas socialmente responsáveis evidenciadas nas organizações pesquisadas, analisando-as em termos de justificações e interesses; (4) a análise da disseminação e sedimentação de arranjos estruturais ligados à RSE nas organizações do Campo, como as áreas específicas criadas para tratar da RSE, os balanços sociais e os websites organizacionais. A pesquisa de campo contemplou cerca de trinta organizações, tendo incluído análise documental e entrevistas. Verificamos que, de uma ação marginal e isolada, a RSE passa, na última década, a ser uma ação estruturada nas organizações bancárias, ao mesmo tempo em que se transforma em um valor social, capaz de contribuir para a legitimidade do Campo. Nessa linha, a pesquisa evidenciou que bancos de varejo são os que estão mais inseridos no movimento pela RSE, o que ratifica a tese do fenômeno como deslocamento do capitalismo.

A proposta deste trabalho foi realizar um estudo de caso de uma empresa do setor bancário brasileiro, que buscou evidenciar o alinhamento das ações de responsabilidade social corporativa (RSC) do Banco do Brasil com o referencial teórico sobre o tema, a partir da observação do crescente interesse por este assunto por investidores, empresas, governos e academia, pelo desenvolvimento de indicadores de desempenho relacionados à sustentabilidade, bem como pela maior valorização nas Bolsas de Valores das ações das empresas que têm consciência da importância e incluem em seus negócios a RSC. Após análise da literatura específica e dos documentos públicos do Banco, o estudo revelou que as iniciativas do Banco do Brasil, ratificadas pela adesão a tratados e acordos nacionais e internacionais, fazem parte de seu posicionamento estratégico e estabeleceram um novo modelo de gestão, baseado na sustentabilidade dos negócios e das relações com todos os públicos de relacionamento, indicando o alinhamento do Banco com a teoria.

After analyzing the literature and the public documents of the Bank, the study revealed that the initiatives of Banco do Brasil, ratified by adherence to national and international treaties and agreements, are part of its strategic position and established a new management model, based on sustainability of business and relationships with all stakeholders, indicating the alignment of the Bank with the theory.

Full textO presente trabalho insere-se no mestrado em comunicação social, vertente Comunicação Estratégica e teve como objetivo a análise das práticas, propostas e sugestões para ações de voluntariado e de comunicação interna (CI) no setor bancário, mais precisamente na Caixa Geral de Depósitos (CGD), onde foi realizado um estágio nas áreas de comunicação e voluntariado. O principal objetivo do presente relatório foi analisar e responder à seguinte questão: “Como pode a comunicação interna promover a responsabilidade social, designadamente o voluntariado corporativo, no setor bancário?” Para tal, em termos de método de investigação, optou-se por uma metodologia mista de recolha de dados: qualitativa e quantitativa. As principais técnicas utilizadas foram inquéritos por entrevista e por questionário, e observação participante. Após a análise do caso em estudo, conclui-se que a CI na CGD é fundamental para o sucesso do negócio. A CI pode ser vista como forma de promoção e de divulgação para ações de voluntariado corporativo. Conclui-se também que o mais importante não será a implementação de mais ações de voluntariado na CGD, mas que exista uma melhor otimização e gestão dessas ações. As ações que têm mais impacto são as que se encontram mais direcionadas para o core business da Instituição.
Strategic Communication, and has the main purpose of analyzing practices, proposals and recommendations concerning existing volunteering and internal communication in the banking sector, particularly in Caixa Geral de Depósitos (CGD), where an internship in communication and volunteering was carried out. The main objective was to analyze and answer to the following question: “How can internal communication promote social responsibility, particularly regarding corporate volunteering in the banking sector?” To answer to that question, as a research method, a mixed methodology based on qualitative and quantitative data was performed. The main techniques used consisted on interviews and questionnaires, as well as participant observation. After analyzing the case study, a conclusion was reached: internal communication in CGD is crucial to the success of the business. Internal communication can be seen as a way to promote and disclose actions of corporate volunteering. Another conclusion points out that the most important is not the implementation of more volunteering actions in CGD, but a better optimization and management of such actions. The actions that have greater impact are the ones directed to the core business of the organization.

The main purpose of this thesis was to analyze the dissemination of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and to examine its determinants and consequences for the Islamic banks of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). In the fulfillment of the research objectives, 40 Islamic banks from the countries that make up the GCC were analyzed during the period from 2013 to 2017, which involved 200 observations to each group. With regard to CSR, an index was constructed to measure the level of disclosure in Islamic banks and conventional banks, based on 11 dimensions recommended by the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOFI) No. 7 published in 2010 (1985), Ismail (1986), and Dusuki (2008), were used in the literature on the dissemination of CSR. Statistical analysis included econometric regressions using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method to examine the determinants and consequences of CSR disclosure in the sample selection of banks. The results indicated a level of disclosure of Islamic RSC of 41.05%, higher than the level of its conventional peers in the region that reached a mark of 30.65%. Using Corporate Governance (CG) mechanisms to measure the determinants of CSR disclosure, the survey found a positive and significant association between the disclosure of CSR and the size of the Board of Directors of the Islamic banks studied. Thus, evidence is provided that stronger corporate governance is associated with a higher level of CSR disclosure. Another result found was the significantly negative relationship of the CEO's Duality (CEOD) and the Audit Committee Size (ACS) with the disclosure of CSR. However, the results did not show a significant association between disclosure of CSR and other variables of corporate governance. To examine the economic consequences of CSR disclosure in Islamic and conventional banks, the study used two different proxies (Market to Book Value and Tobin's Q) to measure the value of the firm. The study found no significant relationship between the proxies analyzed. It is suggested that there is a strong need to improve the current CSR disclosure practice, especially in the Islamic banks of the GCC, imposing additional restrictions on the characteristics of the Board of Directors. The results corroborate the global debate on the need for corporate governance reform, providing insights into the role-played by corporate governance mechanisms in encouraging and enhancing CSR disclosure practices and opens up fertile ground for studies involving the influence of religious roots on practices
O objetivo desta tese foi analisar a divulgação da Responsabilidade Social Corporativa (RSC) e examinar seus determinantes e consequências entre os bancos islâmicos do Conselho de Cooperação do Golfo (CCG). No cumprimento dos objetivos da pesquisa, foram analisados 40 bancos islâmicos e 40 bancos convencionais dos países que compõem o CCG, durante o período de 2013 a 2017, o que envolveu 200 observações em cada grupo. No tocante à RSC, foi construído um índice para mensurar o nível de sua divulgação em bancos islâmicos e em bancos convencionais, com base em 11 dimensões recomendadas pela norma nº 7 do Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOFI), publicada em 2010. Com relação aos determinantes da divulgação, foram construídas hipóteses, com base nas lacunas identificadas na literatura precedente, nas Teorias de divulgação existentes e nos Modelos Islâmicos de divulgação da RSC: Modelos de Chapra (1985), Ismail (1986) e Dusuki (2008). A análise estatística compreendeu regressões econométricas utilizando o método dos Mínimos Quadrados Ordinários (MQO), para examinar os determinantes e as consequências da divulgação de RSC na seleção amostral dos bancos. Os resultados indicaram um nível de divulgação da RSC Islâmica de 41,05%, maior do que o nível de seus pares convencionais da região que alcançaram um índice de 30,65%. Usando mecanismos de Governança Corporativa (GC), para mensurar os determinantes da divulgação de RSC, a pesquisa encontrou uma associação positiva e significativa entre a divulgação da RSC e o tamanho do Conselho de Administração (CA) dos bancos islâmicos estudados. Com isso, são fornecidas evidências de que uma Governança Corporativa mais forte está associada a um nível mais alto de divulgação de RSC. Outro resultado encontrado foi o relacionamento significativamente negativo da Dualidade do CEO (DCEO) e do Tamanho do Comitê de Auditoria (TCTA) com a divulgação da RSC. No entanto, os resultados não mostraram associação significativa entre divulgação da RSC e outras variáveis de governança corporativa. Para examinar as consequências econômicas da divulgação da RSC nos bancos islâmicos e convencionais, o estudo usou duas proxies diferentes (Market to Book Value e o Q de Tobin) para mensurar o valor da empresa. O estudo não encontrou nenhuma relação significativa entre as proxies analisadas. Sugere-se que há forte necessidade de melhorar a atual prática de divulgação da RSC, especialmente nos bancos islâmicos do CCG, impondo restrições adicionais às características do Conselho de Administração. Os resultados corroboram com o debate global sobre a necessidade de reforma da governança corporativa, fornecendo insights sobre o papel desempenhado pelos mecanismos de governança corporativa no incentivo e aprimoramento das práticas de divulgação da RSC e abre campo fértil para estudos envolvendo a influência das raízes religiosas nas práticas de RSC

Full textIntroduction: The society is becoming more aware of the importance of corporate social responsibility (CSR) work. CSR has also be-come a competitive tool in order to reach out to potential cus-tomers. There are also many definitions of what CSR actually means. These are things that makes it interesting to find out how multinational corporations, who has a lot of power, per-ceive and work with CSR, as well as what can be done to make corporations work more with CSR.
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to describe what CSR as a con-cept means, whose responsibility it is, as well as why corpora-tions work with it. We also intend to find out what it takes to make CSR a more prevailing and decisive instrument for cor-porations?
Method: We conducted six unstructed interviews with multinational corporations in Sweden.
Conclusion: Today the phenomena of CSR has no unified definition, this is why we believe that a definition that is precise in describing what CSR is can be useful. We think that transparency is something important since information provided to the pub-lic, provides consumers and stakeholders with power to make information based investment, and purchase decisions. We have also concluded that we think that the most important factor in driving the CSR work forward and making it grow in size, is to make consumers reward the corporations that per-form well in their CSR activities.

Full textBackground: Today, most companies have recognized the importance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and regularly communicating the work with stakeholders. Since CSR lacks a uniform definition and thus also a uniform model to work for, it creates uncertainties about the purpose of the work. Companies who only do symbolic actions to be perceived as good citizens of the community can then use CSR as PR. It can therefore be questioned how well CSR is integrated into the core business. However, it has been an increasing number of legal requirements and standards in the area, potentially creating a clearer framework but also another approach. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to gain a greater understanding of CSR as a concept and then see how companies work to integrate CSR into core business and why. The study also looks at the impact of increased regulation, to see if views on CSR have changed. Method: The study has primarily a qualitative research strategy with a deductive approach that stands on previous studies. The companies studied are Lammhult Design Group AB and Electra AB. As a data collection method, I have conducted semi-structured interviews with responsible managers, but also a staff survey. I have also used the homepages websites and annual and sustainability reports. Outcome and conclusion: It is not as important to find a unified definition of CSR in today's society. The concept of CSR has been replaced by sustainability, which is considered as a broader term. Furthermore, it is a slow process of integrating CSR into core business, where internal voice, education, routines and information are of particular importance. By maintaining sustainability at the forefront companies can avoid pressure such as legal requirements.

Full textThe environment, the humanitarian causes, the equality in its various senses and the other issues of social importance are themes that have awakened, pointing as a priority in the future (and in the present). In companies, this can be translated into Social Responsibility. And among all sectors, the banking sector has stood out. Responsibility in the Banking Sector is a topic of growing interest and whose study lacks a more methodological basis. Banks depend on the trust of society and can change social behavior through their activity criteria. This dissertation contributes to the clarification of the concepts and quantitatively accesses the potential financial impact of the Social Responsibility on the profitability of the banks. The results of this study suggest that Social Responsibility does not harm the financial profitability of most banks. However, it suggests that impact is significantly different between large banks and small banks as, ceteris paribus, a Social Responsibility improves the financial profitability of larger banks.

After the outbreak of the American subprime mortgage crisis in 2007, the bad creditor’s rights lamed the banks in America and made the financial system of the U.S. fall on the verge of collapse. The financial crisis spread up quickly like domino from USA to the whole world. After the Lehman’s Brothers’ declaration of bankruptcy, it hollowed countless investors worldwide and stood out the important impact of fulfillment of the banking corporate social responsibility to country’s economic development and stability. Because the concept of corporate social responsibility is getting great attention, enterprises no longer take profit and creation of the greatest wealth for shareholders as the ultimate goal. Moreover, the scope of social responsibility includes not only the facet of social welfare but also business staff, suppliers, community residents, and etc. Therefore, fulfilling the social responsibility can lower the operational risk of enterprises in the identical and competitive markets. The study, according to “Corporate Citizenship Award (CSR)” of World Magazine in 2013, refers to the UN Global Compact, OECD MNE guidance program, the U.S. Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) and other international indicators and evaluation methods to probe into the influential factors of fulfillment of the corporate social responsibility of banking in Taiwan in four dimensions, “Corporate Governance”, “Corporate commitment”, “Social Participation”, and “Environment protection”. After the questionnaire of the Delphi method for the first stage and the Analytic Hierarchy process (AHP) for the second stage, it shows that the dimension of “Corporate Governance”, mainly measuring independence of board of directors and transparency of company, is the most valued by the experts interviewed, and “Corporate Commitment” to Staff and clients is the second.

‘Making money is the only corporate social responsibility to an enterprise!’ The statement is no longer an irrefutable truth now. ‘Corporate social responsibility’ has already become one of the vocabularies between the multinational corporation managers. Looking into the industrial property, banking is the trigger of the development of whole society and economy, so if the society would march toward to continuous growth, banking can’t be excluded, furthermore, should take the lead and help other industries to march toward the development. Overall, this research mainly focuses on ‘Corporate Ethics’, ‘Corporate Morality’ and ‘Corporate Social Responsibility’ of Taipei Banking staff. We can see from the research that the banking with better reputation places more importance of practice of corporate social responsibility; the employee with longer service seniority approves the promise of corporate responsibility. It is expected that the research can be provided to the banking enterprises to strengthen their advantages, improve their shortages, and be the reference for strategy decision. 300 questionnaires have been sent out to Taipei public, private and multinational banks for the research. Recovery rate is 91.66% with 275 questionnaires. Among them, 253 are valid. The recovery rate of valid questionnaire is 84.33%. Research and analysis find out that: 1. Corporate Ethics is significant to Corporate Social Responsibility 2. Corporate Morality is significant to Corporate Social Responsibility 3.

This study examines the effect of corporate social responsibility on bank financial performance. First of all, original sample of this study is selected from the banks listed in Central Bank of Taiwan from 2007 to 2014. This paper also uses the 1st to 8th Excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility TOP 50 released annually by renowned magazines in Taiwan, namely, Common Wealth Magazine, as a benchmark for the performance of corporate social responsibility. Moreover, we use return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), operation income per employee (OIPE), non-performing loan (NPL), stock return and bank of international settlement (BIS) as the variables of financial performance. In order to elevate the reliability of research result, total asset and debt ratio are used as the control variables of these models. Finally, we adopt multiple linear regression method to analyze research results. Our findings show that:(1) There are significant positive correlation between bank taking CSR and their ROA, ROE and OIPE, which support the social impact hypothesis ,the good management theory and the managerial guile theory. (2) There is significant negative correlation between bank taking CSR and their non-performing loan. (3) There is no significant relationship between CSR and stock return, supporting the supply and demand theory of the firm. In conclusion, the analysis represents that the corporate social responsibility positively influences bank financial performance.

The Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation (TWSE) announced that specified listed companies would start mandatory corporate social responsibility (CSR) reporting annually from 2014. Accordingly, this study organized CSR reports issued by listed and over-the-counter companies to determine whether these companies fulfilled their CSR, the extent to which they disclosed such information, and whether banking companies fulfilling their CSR had a positive effect on their business performance. Statistical data compiled in 2017 show that most companies issued CSR reports only to comply with regulations, and that has half of the CSR reports were not certified by a third party. The focus of the banking industry’s CSR reports varies with social trends and events each year and generally includes basic corporate governance overview and integrity management with gradual incorporation of employee training, information security, and law compliance. Green finance and environmental protection remain topics that are rarely addressed. This study divided the companies into different groups on the basis of whether they signed the Equator Principles and whether they voluntarily prepared CSR reports. Subsequently, the financial performance, corporate governance, and company–employee relationships of these company groups were analyzed. The results showed that banks that were more involved in CSR showed superior business performance.

Full textThe evolution of the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility has created a lot of debate in the modern world. In the financial world, the engagement in social responsible activities, such as, providing guidelines on sustainability, environmental impact reduction, donations to charitable causes or supporting communities have become a common practice for the vast majority of financial institutions. Islamic Financial Institutions, due to its religious bond, are bound to operate in a system that places social goals at the same level, or even above, of financial goals. Actually, the ethical system and values of Islam, alongside the Shari‘ah law, provide a natural framework of social responsibility for Islamic Financial Institutions. Besides the most common characteristics of Corporate Social Responsibility, there are some singular and unique to the Islamic Financial Institutions, for instance, the collection and distribution of Zakat, the establishment of Qard-Hassan and distribution policy (for social reasons) and the management of Waqf properties on behalf of clients. The unique characteristics of these institutions are present in their everyday activities with a strong focus of the prohibition of interest (riba), prohibited (haram) activities and avoidance of uncertainty/speculation (gahrar) and, on the other hand, the offer of products that are Shari‘ah compliant, notably, profit-andloss sharing arrangements. To understand if the literature concerning Islamic Corporate Social Responsibility matches the actual practices of Islamic Financial Institutions, a study of four published surveys, by renowned authors, was undertaken and the conclusions and implications for the future of Islamic Financial Institutions were drawn.
A evolução do conceito de Responsabilidade Social das Empresas criou um grande debate no mundo moderno. Na área financeira, o compromisso com actividades de responsabilidade social, como a criação de linhas orientadoras para a sustentabilidade, redução do impacto ambiental, acções filantrópicas ou apoios à comunidade, tornaram-se comuns para a maior parte das instituições financeiras. As instituições financeiras Islâmicas, devido à sua ligação religiosa, estão sujeitas a actuar num sistema que coloca os objectivos sociais no mesmo patamar, ou mesmo acima, dos objectivos financeiros. O sistema ético e valores do Islão, bem como da lei Shari‘ah, proporcionam uma delineação natural de responsabilidade social para as instituições financeiras Islâmicas. Além das características mais comuns da responsabilidade social das empresas, existem outras singulares e únicas que são inerentes às instituições financeiras Islâmicas, por exemplo, a recolha e distribuição do zakat, a criação de fundos Qard-Hassan e respectiva política de distribuição e gestão de propriedades Waqf em benefício dos clientes. As características únicas destas instituições estão presentes nas suas actividades diárias com especial atenção na proibição da usura, actividades proibidas (haram) e afastamento de incerteza/especulação (gahrar), bem como a oferta de produtos que respeitam a lei Shari‘ah, por exemplo, oportunidades de investimento sob o ideal de partilha de lucros e perdas. Para perceber se a literatura respeitante à responsabilidade social das empresas Islâmicas vai ao encontro das práticas actuais destas instituições, foi conduzido um estudo de quatro inquéritos de autores de renome, e foram tiradas conclusões e implicações para o futuro destas instituições financeiras.

Full textIn the course of firms serving their own interest of securing financial profit, there is a responsibility to take action in protecting and enhancing the interest of the society in which they operate, with the total endeavour and effect of improving the quality of life. This is often done by giving back to the society in the form of community involvement projects. The main objective of this study is: To investigate the extent to which the value chain in employee volunteering - community involvement programmes is understood and fully optimised from these stakeholders‟ perspective. There were three types of respondent groups within the entire population of Choma, involved in this study. Firstly, there was a respondent group of five senior CSR managers at Choma who manage and co-ordinate all CSR activities within the bank. They have full knowledge of the scope of Choma CSR stated objectives and what is happening in the context of Choma CSI projects, and can thus give valuable insight to the Choma CSI projects‟ current state, including successes and challenges. Two CSR projects were selected by these senior CSR managers, where one was really outstanding and one was also completed, but not considered as valuable in attaining Choma CSR objectives as good as the first. The first group of respondents are members who were actively involved in Project 1 from Choma RBB operations, while the second group was involved in Project 2, from RBB Choma personal loans. Three employees were interviewed from each project. These projects were executed in two different communities leading to two additional respondent samples drawn from the two communities. Two community members were interviewed from each community. This provides three views of the research problem and a triangulation from three different sources of CSR value to a community. All interviews were face-to-face in the respective offices of the respondents by scheduled appointments.

Over the last decade, the corporate social responsibility (CSR) gradually world-wide concern, and the firm disclose important information. It means that the firms not only disclose the information of investing activities, operating ability and financial re-porting, but also disclose community participation, environmental protection and fi-nancial trans¬parency etc. The Panel regression is applied to investigate the relationship between cor¬porate social responsibility and financial performance of 38 banks in Tai-wan. There are seven independent variables based on four regulations of “Corporate Social Responsibil¬ity Best Practice Principles for TWSE/GTSM Listed Companies.” They are social charity, corporate governance, sustainable environment and corporate social responsibility. The dependent variables are return on assets (ROA), earning per share (EPS) and non-per¬forming loan (NPL) based on the corporate social responsibil-ity report and annual report of each bank.

The main purpose of this study is to assess the level of corporate social responsibility (hereafter CSR) disclosure in the Mongolian banking sector and determine how they are engaging in CSR activities. Furthermore, this study analyzes the association between corporate financial performance (hereafter CFP) in terms of return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), net interest margin (NIM) and non-performing loan ratio (NPL) and the CSR implementation based on CSR disclosure indices. The study utilizes the secondary data from the annual reports and BankScope database from 2003 to 2012. There are 65 annual reports and 12 banks being analyzed. The results from descriptive statistics find that Mongolian banks are more aggressively engaged in CSR activities in most recent years. Throughout this study, the findings show that there is a significant positive relationship between CSR measured by Corporate Social Responsibility Reporting Disclosure (CSRRD) and Corporate Social Responsibility Qualitative (CSRQD) and CFP measured by NIM. Moreover, both CSRRD and CSRQD are statistically negatively associated with bank financial performance in terms of NPL. The results of T- test indicate that the banks with higher CSR tend to have higher ROE and NIM and lower NPL. In addition, bank board leadership structure (CEO duality) and bank size (total asset and number of branches) are significantly and positively associated with CSR. Interestingly, the results of the regression analysis suggest that CSR is more strongly associated with bank financial performance measured by ROA, ROE, NIM and NPL before the financial crisis in 2008. However, the relationships between CSR and CFP measured by ROA and ROE are weaker in Mongolian banking sector after the financial crisis.
