The link between corporate social and financial performance: Evidence from the banking industry [Book Review]
Journal of Business Ethics 35 (2):97 - 109 (2002)
Abstract |
The purpose of this investigation is to extend earlier research on the relationship between corporate social and financial performance. The unique contribution of the study is the empirical analysis of a sample of companies from the banking industry and the use of Community Reinvestment Act ratings as a social performance measure. The empirical analysis solidly supports the hypothesis that the link between social and financial performance is positive.
