“…However, it is also stated that some of the evidence between the relation or impact among the disclosure of CSR and FP is conflicting, i.e., Ingram and Frazier (1980) reported a negative correlation and Freedman and Jaggi (1982)and Lehenchuk et al (2023) find no correlation between the above stated two variables. Some of the investigations also show negative association among the CSR reporting and the financial performance, such as Gutiérrez-Ponce and Wibowo (2023), Paulin (2017), Al-Ajmi et al ( 2023) and many more. As the mentioned researches belongs to the industrialized countries whose business as well as financial system varying with respect of the developing countries, i.e., Pakistan.…”

Present research intends to evaluate the nexus among the corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure and financial effectiveness of banking industry in Pakistan. This investigation applies a quantitative research approach using panel data from a sample of Pakistan’s commercial banking institutions over timeframe limited from 2009 to 2020. The outcomes of mixed effect model visualize that there is inverse significant association among CSR disclosure ROE. Whereas no statistically significant linked in the context of short-term financial performance, by using a proxy of ROA. The results suggesting that the focus on CSR events and initiatives may have a detrimental effect on financial effectiveness. It is generally acknowledged that CSR offers numerous non-financial benefits, such as enhancing social media campaigns and luring ethical investors from both domestic and foreign markets. In developing countries context (i.e., Pakistan), we can conclude that the “cost of the CSR initiatives” and “shift of focus view” can affect the performance of banking industry. The lack of a positive correlation among corporate social responsibility (CSR) and financial performance in the Pakistani financial services sector can be attributed to a lack of interest and engagement in socially conscious investing. These findings indicate that the adoption of socially responsible investment has not gained significant cultural traction in Pakistan. The results emphasize the importance of banks, regulators, and stakeholders reassessing the balance between social responsibility and financial performance, considering the possible negative consequences of revealing CSR initiatives.

Austria is the only country in Europe that has official secrecy, so-called "Amtsgeheimnis", as a constitutional principle. In contrast to other countries, this has consequences for citizens in their dealings with the authorities. Information is therefore not free per se but is only released under certain conditions. These are severely restricted. This leads to a number of problems, for example, Austria is already among the worst 10 countries in terms of freedom of information. A new Freedom of Information Act is intended to change this. In this paper, the authors present a prototype that enables query processing between citizens and government agencies. Cloud services are used, and the data does not leave the respective data sovereignty. The draft law is currently under review.

“…Th e main barriers in this category are the fear that they would have an increased workload (Nesti 2018) and that the process of co-creation could reveal the existing structural / organizational fl aws (Meričkova et al 2015). Regardless of that, public servants should change their perception about citizens as they change from passive subject to active agents (Dunston et al 2009;Griffi ths 2015), where all participants work toward a common goal (Lam and Wang 2014;Ostling 2017;Lindsay et al 2018a). Th e change of perception relates to how public-organization co-creators understand co-creation beyond mere consultation and formal participation and whether they are aware of the benefi ts that collaboration with the public might have.…”

Co-creation of public services and policies is considered a promising practice of re-shaping the traditional relationship between the state and its citizens, businesses and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Nevertheless, there are also warnings that the implementation of the process of co-creation could fail. A possible reason is that the organization is not ready or sufficiently mature to implement the process of co-creation. This paper addresses co-creation drivers and barriers identified through systematic literature review and analysis of case studies from two Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries. The aim of this paper is to provide practitioners from CEE countries with a conceptual multi-attribute decision support model for evaluating the organizational readiness for co-creation. The methodological framework consists of three steps. The first two steps, content analysis (i.e. literature review) and case-study analysis, were used to identify and analyze drivers and barriers, which are then used in the last step to develop the conceptual multi-attribute decision support model. The developed model consists of 26 attributes grouped into three categories: capacity of the organization, drivers and barriers related to internal (public organization) co-creators, and context related drivers and barriers. The key points for practitioners are: • Co-creation drivers and barriers affect organizations at the beginning of their co-creation journey (i.e. in identifying the key co-creation success factor at the organizational level); • Co-creation drivers and barriers serve as guidance to organizations that were unsuccessful in co-creation; • The conceptual model supporting the evaluation of co-creation readiness serves as a tool to those that consider implementing co-creation; • The model offers an insight into a possible methodology for evaluation of readiness in different areas; • For practitioners from the CEE region, co-creation drivers and barriers, together with the conceptual multi-attribute decision support model supporting the evaluation of co-creation readiness, offer a roadmap to successful co-creation.
