Corporate Social Performance in Developing Countries

Corporate social performance (CSP) has become one of the most widely used sustainability criteria. The authors of this book have developed a comprehensive CSP Index (AIMH CSP Index©) in the context of developing countries, applied the AIMH CSP Index© for measuring corporate social performance of public listed companies operating in Bangladesh, and examined the linkage of social performance with sustainability proxies like institutional investment. Policy recommendations for the improvement of social responsibility performance of public listed companies in developing countries are also suggested. Given the scarcity of books and literatures discussing CSP in developing countries, this volume makes an important addition to the collection of researchers and practitioners.
