The major theme of this research has been to understand the South African banking sector’s response to environmental sustainability. The research was both qualitative and quantitative in nature. To elicit understanding of these responses, semi-structured interviews were undertaken with representatives from seven South African banks. The research interviews revolved around four core themes; the environmental drivers, environmental strategy implementation, the corresponding practices undertaken and their frame of reference according to the sustainable value framework, together with the relevant

<p> This is an exploratory qualitative case study of the state of sustainability programs within a set of 12 mid-sized U.S. banks compared among themselves and then compared to a set of 12 global banks. This research was designed in two phases. Phase One presented the current state of sustainability within mid-sized U.S. banks and global banks based upon each bank’s public data as organized into three sections: a bank profile, major strategic initiatives, and bank sustainability initiatives and programs. Phase Two data were analyzed from 24 interviews with key executives within each bank

Abstract:

Taking action on sustainability is key if the ideals of the South African national development plan, the African Union’s Agenda 2063 and the global sustainable development goals are to be achieved. However, evidence suggests that despite global buy-in from the private and public sector, limited progress has been made to date. The literature revealed that little has been done to understand why organisations adopt a weak position on sustainability and maintain low levels of action. The financial services sector has been identified as a critical enabler of sustainability action. The research set

Abstract:

With the increasing demands of engaging in sustainability, the financial industry’s dominating market logic is currently being challenged. Banks are therefore experiencing demands to manage and legitimize sustainability, identified as containing both a market- and social logic, into a profit driven context. The aim of this study was thus to explore, at a micro level, how multiple logics of sustainability can be managed and legitimized in an organization where the dominant logic is being challenged. This was done by conducting a case study where the primary data was collected through semi-struc

The local banking industry has many challenges to face in the newly democratized South Africa. This study reviews these challenges, with special reference to sustainable business practice. It commences with an overview of the global business environment and more specifically, the challenges facing the international financial services sector with respect to sustainability. The effects of globalisation, as well as modernization, are used as key influencers in determining the external global environment.

v Abstract This thesis proposes a theoretical framework for application of ethics in banking and analyses effects of such application on financial performance of banks. A sentiments-adjusted economic motivation enables employment of ethical concepts, such as universality and humanity, in economics as well as banking. Then, using Bankscope data of more than 80,000 bank-year observations for the years 2003-2013, it is shown that banks applying ethics have higher exposure to real economy and less volatile Return on Equity. A consequent analysis revealed that in comparison with their closest peers

This is especially so because banks’ directors can be criminally prosecuted for environmental crimes. The application and effect of the Prevention of Organised Crime Act 121 of 1998 (POCA) on persons convicted of an environmental crime or crimes has been identified as a p

Abstract:

A sustentabilidade do sistema bancário é uma matéria que tem vindo a ganhar maior importância desde a crise mundial de 2008. A crise dos bancos afetou negativamente toda a economia e, consequentemente, toda a sociedade. Isto aconteceu porque o sistema bancário é o principal intermediário económico-financeiro global e, por isso, tem um impacto muito significativo num conjunto diversificado de stakeholders. Neste sentido, abordar a sustentabilidade da banca torna-se essencial para perceber a forma de garantir a sua sobrevivência de longo prazo, através de uma melhoria da compreensão estratégica
