Abstract :
[en] Our study contributes to existing literature by investigating the effects of blockholder and bank ownership on CSR performance within an international context. Prior research has predominantly examined local markets. Additionally, we identify ownership dispersion to strengthen the relationship between investors and CSR and thus provide further evidence on the factors influencing investors’ CSR preferences. Conducting an instrumental variables approach supports our findings that bank ownership is positively and blockholder ownership is negatively related to CSR performance.
