“…This result implies that the social and environmental concerns of Islamic banks are not caused by economic motives. This result rejects the findings of [17] which posited that banks that have low capital risk, high liquidity risk, and low profitability have a tendency to reveal more complete CSR reports.…”

This research aims to demonstrate empirically whether banks' concern for society and the environment, as measured by the increase in social funds, is based on economic motives (changes in profit sharing, capital, funding, credit risk and profitability). The population is Islamic banks in Indonesia and a sample of 11 banks was determined using the purposive sampling method and with observations from the period 2014 to 2017. The data analysis uses the Structure Equation Model aided by the WarpPLS tool. The results demonstrate that there is no relationship between changes in the level of profit sharing, changes in Non-Performing Financing, and changes in profitability to the policy of channeling social funds. Changes in capital and funding received by banks have low significant influence on the policy of channeling social funds. These results indicate that there is no strong proof that the policy of channeling social funds is caused by economic motives.

“…In much smaller measure, but also of interest, some studies border a middle area, which is the relationship between CSR performance and corporate reputation [10,13]. In the field of studies that are more about banks' behavior in CSR, noteworthy studies include some that have addressed financial inclusion [6,87,93], about CSR reporting and Global Reporting Initiative [94][95][96][97][98], not forgetting studies that continue the line of Socially Responsible Investment [99,100]. Finally, it is also interesting to note how in this last period, various studies that consider the theme in developing countries have emerged [58,[101][102][103][104][105][106].…”

The 2008 financial crisis placed banks in the gaze of public opinion. Financial entities did not delay in reacting, intensifying their efforts in what had become known as sustainable banking, with the goal of counteracting the negative effects of their loss of reputation. Neither has the academic community delayed their reaction, with the rapid growth of scientific production around this topic. However, no review of this literature through qualitative methods or bibliometry exists. The work presented in this paper fills one of those gaps, setting up a statistical description of the principal features of sustainable banking research and carrying out an analysis about its knowledge structure via co-word analysis. The results show a rapid evolution of the topics addressed, highlighting studies about the consequences of banks’ sustainability programs on their competitiveness. Future trends point to the search for more complex models, the incorporation of new stakeholders in the analysis and the consideration of different contexts.

“…This sector has traditionally been a determinant of social issues of companies [28][29][30] because the information being issued depends on the kind of activity of the firm. Financial services companies are vital agents in the economy, so they are a benchmark for greater transparency [31][32][33]. They are also under special supervision and regulation in each country, with specific requirements on top of those applied for nonfinancial entities [34], and there can be an effect of the type of market economy on banks´disclosure (coordinated or liberal market economy) [35].…”

In this study we concentrate on the segment of small companies in the financial sector in Europe. Services in this sector are developing rapidly and are not necessarily provided only by traditional banks and financial companies. Many nonfinancial companies provide financial services, and this may open the sector to additional risk. In this context, the aspects of both financial and nonfinancial reporting are important and need to be taken into consideration as a whole to provide a complex picture of a particular institution. The goal of this paper is to analyze sustainability reporting according to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) by European financial services small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). First, we conducted a descriptive analysis of the features of nonfinancial information and its assurance, studying a sample of all European SMEs reporting according to the GRI from 2016 to 2018. Then, we chose only financial services SMEs to apply lexical analysis to their narrative reporting based on a corpus of 102,056 words. We conclude that nonfinancial information does not have the same importance as traditional financial information, and this sustainability reporting only complies with the minimum requirements. Thus, there is still a long way to go in this field.
