organizations while solving pressing social problems. The study explored the effectiveness of CSR strategies on
organizational performance by ascertaining whether responsibility towards primary stakeholders influences the
financial and non-financial performance of commercial banks. The author focused on the Equity Bank in Kenya.
Content analysis of the Bank’s financial reports between the years 2006 and 2012 was done to ascertain the
relationship between CSR and performance of the Bank. The establishment of EGF, a fully fledged subsidiary of
Equity Bank, to handle all aspects of social responsibility for the Bank is a clear attestation of how important
and serious the institution considers CSR in their day-to-day operations. The categorization of the CSR
strategies into thematic areas showed that, to the Eank, social responsibility is not just a philanthropic deed to
society but a strategic tool for furtherance of business objectives, including stakeholder relationships. The study
recommended the need for organizations to be more inclusive and participatory among all the stakeholders at
all levels of implementation as well as further research to determine the level at which CSR impacts on
performance and the influence of prior organizational performance on social responsibility.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) refers to companies integrating social and environmental concerns into their business operations and interactions with stakeholders. CSR goes beyond philanthropy and compliance to operating in a way that contributes to sustainable development. The document outlines the meaning and reasons for CSR, models of CSR, principles and strategies for CSR implementation, and the regulatory framework for CSR in India, including requirements for Indian companies to constitute a CSR committee and spend at least 2% of net profits on CSR activities.
