About this title

Synopsis

So far, there has hardly been any study that looked at the link between level of corporate social responsibility and firm performance in the developing nations. However, with the advent of information technology and raising awareness among the stakeholders in these nations, slowly but surely corporate social responsibility is gaining more and more importance. To my knowledge, this was one of the very few studies conducted on the firms of developing nations that looked at the impact of CSR performance on the ultimate financial performance of the firm. The purpose of this study was to create a stepping stone for future researches on this area. It would bring great joy to me if this humble effort makes some useful contribution to the understanding of the subject matter discussed in this book.
