The Complexity of Relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Financial Performance

Abstract: This study argues that, inconsistent results of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) relationship with financial performance is due to the complexity of relationship between two variables. The complexity of relationship stems from the nature of CSR, which is unseparable from its environment. This nature of relationship brings unfavourable impact on empirical research. The conclusion obtained from empirical evidents of such relationship will be highly contextual and lack generalization. This study proposes… Show more

“…As mentioned above, the empirical studies dealing with the relationship between CSR and FP do not reach a clear consensus neither on the meaning nor on the significance of the relationship. The divergent empirical findings may be attributable to theoretical underpinnings, sample selection techniques, variable measurements and estimation model specifications (Feng et al, 2018;Karyawati, Sutrisno & Saraswati, 2018;Kooskora et al, 2019). These mixed results open the doors to further research in developing countries such as Morocco where CSR is still evolving.…”

“…Also, CSR is a corporate engagement with society through which they rebrand their core values towards protecting the environments, eradicating poverty, creating employment and labour practices, education, and human development (Khan, Khan, Ahmed, & Ali, 2012). Despite the CSR concept's popularity, it still lacks a universally accepted definition (Golrida, Subroto, Sutrisno, & Saraswati, 2018; Mikolajek-Gocejna, 2016)…”

“…The relationship between CSR and performance is complex, and the complexity is due to the inseparability between CSR and its environments, which hurts empirical studies; hence, the empirical results are highly contextual and lack generalisation (Golrida et al, 2018). The relationship between CSR and performance is multifaceted because of country characteristics and CSR forms and dimensions because country char-acteristics determine CSR practices' tendency, which finally determines the strength of the relationship between CSR and performance (Golrida et al, 2018).…”

“…CSR increases firm value, but the analysis of the relationship must consider the variables that influence the relationship between CSRD (Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure) and firm value. Karyawati, Subroto, Sutrisno, and Saraswati (2019) found and considered other variables in the relationship between CSRD and firm value. Therefore, the extension of this study is to measure innovation as a mediating variable in influencing CSR disclosure with firm value.…”
