Investing In Corporate Social Responsibility, Banking Disclosure And Finance In Uzbekistan
Odilov Akmal Odilovich , Doctoral Student , Tashkent Financial Institute, Uzbekistan Jo’rayev Behzod Nuraliyevich , Researcher, Tashkent Financial Institute, UzbekistanAbstract
Using panel data set from banks in Uzbekistan, a developing country, this paper examines the effects of corporate social responsibility (CSR) investment and disclosure on corporate financial performance. The results from the Wallace and Hussain estimator of component variances (a two- way random and fixed effects panel) suggest that CSR investment without due disclosure would have little or no contribution to corporate financial performance. This paper supports the argument that firms could benefit both financially and non-financially from a strategic CSR agenda.
