PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between ownership structure and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Specifically, this paper examines the impact of financial performance on the relationship between ownership structure and CSR.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses panel data set of 200 French firms listed during 2007–2018 period. The direct and moderating effects were tested by using multiple regression technique.FindingsThe results indicate that investors have different attitudes toward CSR engagement. While institutional ownership affects positively CSR engagement, managerial ownership shows a negative effect. Findings also show that financial performance accentuates these effects.Research limitations/implicationsThe findings have practical implications that may be useful to regulators and managers interested in enhancing CSR. For regulators, the results advise policymakers to restrict managerial ownership and promote institutional investments to improve CSR. For managers, the results suggest developing more sophisticated intervention mechanisms to deal with conflicting voices that could result from different owners’ attitudes toward CSR. As an extension to this research, further study can examine the impact of audit quality on CSR.Originality/valueThis study proposes the establishment of dynamic links between ownership structure and CSR around firm financial performance. In addition, it investigates not only the overall CSR ratings but also each of CSR pillars, namely, environmental, social and governance.
目的研究股权结构与企业社会责任之间的关系。具体而言,本文考察了财务绩效对股权结构与企业社会责任关系的影响。设计/方法/方法本研究使用2007-2018年期间200家法国上市公司的面板数据集。采用多元回归技术对其直接效应和调节效应进行检验。结果表明,投资者对企业社会责任参与的态度存在差异。机构所有权对企业社会责任参与有积极影响,而管理层所有权对企业社会责任参与有消极影响。研究结果还表明,财务绩效加剧了这些影响。研究局限/启示研究结果对有意加强企业社会责任的监管者和管理者具有实际意义。对于监管机构,研究结果建议决策者限制管理层持股,促进机构投资,以改善企业社会责任。对于管理者来说,研究结果建议开发更复杂的干预机制,以处理不同所有者对企业社会责任的态度可能导致的冲突声音。作为本研究的延伸,进一步的研究可以考察审计质量对企业社会责任的影响。原创性/价值本研究提出围绕公司财务绩效建立股权结构与企业社会责任之间的动态联系。此外,它不仅调查了企业社会责任的总体评级,还调查了企业社会责任的各个支柱,即环境、社会和治理。

PurposeThis paper aims to contribute to the growing body of research which demonstrates corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives can be linked to individual-level outcomes, such as employee engagement, using a quasi-experimental field study to provide initial evidence of a casual effect for such programs.Design/methodology/approachThe authors examined whether participating in an international corporate-sponsored volunteer program increased employee engagement by comparing a sample of employees, matched on their pre-trip engagement scores and other demographic variables, with employees who did not volunteer in the program and comparing the differences in this employee engagement after completing the volunteer experience.FindingsUsing an exact matching technique, the authors were able to isolate the influence of the volunteer program on employee engagement and demonstrate that the program was associated with increased employee engagement after the program ended.Originality/valueThis study provides additional, and stronger, support on the CSR and employee engagement relationship through isolating the causal influence of the volunteer program on engagement. Thus, it provides additional justification for the use of, and financial investment in, such programs by organizations.
本文旨在为越来越多的研究做出贡献,这些研究表明企业社会责任(CSR)举措可以与个人层面的结果(如员工敬业度)联系起来,使用准实验实地研究来提供此类计划的偶然效应的初步证据。设计/方法/方法作者通过比较员工样本,匹配他们旅行前的敬业度得分和其他人口统计变量,以及没有志愿者参与该计划的员工,并比较完成志愿者体验后员工敬业度的差异,来研究参加国际公司赞助的志愿者计划是否提高了员工敬业度。使用精确匹配技术,作者能够分离出志愿者计划对员工敬业度的影响,并证明该计划在计划结束后与员工敬业度的增加有关。独创性/价值本研究通过分离志愿者项目对员工敬业度的因果影响,为企业社会责任和员工敬业度之间的关系提供了额外的、更强有力的支持。因此,它为组织使用和投资这些项目提供了额外的理由。

PurposeIn view of the current climate change emergency and the growing importance of the climate-related accountability of companies, this paper aims to advance a comprehensive understanding of the determinants of carbon-related chief executive officer (CEO) compensation.Design/methodology/approachBuilding on the agency-theoretical perspective on executive compensation and existing work in the fields of management, corporate governance, cultural studies, and behavioral science, this paper derives a multilevel framework of the determinants of carbon-related CEO compensation.FindingsThis paper maps the determinants of carbon-related CEO compensation at the societal, organizational, group, and individual levels of analysis. It also provides research propositions on the determinants that can support and challenge the implementation of this instrument of environmental corporate governance.Originality/valueIn the past literature, the determinants of carbon-related CEO compensation have remained largely unexplored. This paper contributes to the academic discussion on environmental corporate governance by showcasing the role of interlinkages among the determinants of carbon-related CEO compensation and the possible countervailing impacts. In view of the complex interdisciplinary nature of climate change impact, this paper encourages businesses practitioners and regulators to intensify their climate change mitigation efforts and delineates the levers at their disposal.
目的鉴于当前的气候变化紧急情况以及企业与气候相关的问责制日益重要,本文旨在全面了解与碳相关的首席执行官薪酬的决定因素。设计/方法论/方法基于高管薪酬的代理理论视角以及管理、公司治理、文化研究和行为科学领域的现有工作,本文推导了碳相关CEO薪酬决定因素的多层次框架。发现本文从社会、组织、团体和个人层面分析了与碳相关的首席执行官薪酬的决定因素。它还提供了关于可以支持和挑战这一环境公司治理工具实施的决定因素的研究主张。原创性/价值在过去的文献中,与碳相关的首席执行官薪酬的决定因素在很大程度上尚未被探索。本文通过展示碳相关CEO薪酬的决定因素之间的相互联系作用以及可能的抵消影响,为环境公司治理的学术讨论做出了贡献。鉴于气候变化影响的复杂跨学科性质,本文鼓励企业从业者和监管机构加强其缓解气候变化的努力,并界定其可支配的杠杆。

PurposeThere is a current agitation by community leaders, global leaders and society on the morality aspect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities of firms. The change in policy raises the question of whether moral capital is affected. Therefore, this study aims to examine whether the shift from voluntary to mandatory reporting increases the moral capital of CSR and also whether moral capital affects the firm performance of listed firms in India.Design/methodology/approachThis study examines 800 firm-year observations on the Bombay Stock Exchange (split into 320 firm-year observations for the voluntary period and 480 firm-year observations for the mandatory period). This study uses panel regression with random effect assumptions for data interpretation.FindingsThe first findings show that a shift from voluntary to mandatory policy on CSR increases the moral capital value of listed firms in India. The second and third findings show that voluntary reporting of moral capital has no significant association with market performance (stock price returns [SPR]) or firm value (Tobin’s q). The fourth findings show a negative and statistically significant association between mandatory reporting of moral capital and SPR but an insignificant association with Tobin’s q. This study conducted a robustness test, and results show that the previous year 1 and 2 moral capital for voluntary and mandatory periods has no association with SPR and Tobin’s q.Originality/valueAlthough prior research has examined the effect of change in policy from voluntary to mandatory reporting on firm performance, little is known about the impact of moral capital on firm performance for the emerging economies, including India.
目前,社区领导人、全球领导人和社会各界对企业社会责任(CSR)活动的道德方面进行了激烈的讨论。政策的变化引发了道德资本是否受到影响的问题。因此,本研究旨在检验从自愿报告到强制性报告的转变是否增加了企业社会责任的道德资本,以及道德资本是否影响了印度上市公司的企业绩效。设计/方法/方法本研究考察了孟买证券交易所的800个公司年度观察结果(分为自愿期的320个公司年度观察结果和强制性期的480个公司年度观察结果)。本研究采用随机效应假设的面板回归进行数据解释。第一个发现表明,企业社会责任政策从自愿向强制性的转变增加了印度上市公司的道德资本价值。第二和第三个研究结果表明,自愿报告道德资本与市场表现(股票价格回报[SPR])或公司价值(托宾q)之间没有显著的关联。第四个研究结果表明,强制报告道德资本与SPR之间存在负相关且具有统计学意义,但与托宾q之间的关联不显著。结果表明,前一年和第2年自愿性和强制性期间的道德资本与SPR和Tobin q.独创性/价值没有关联。尽管先前的研究已经检查了从自愿性报告到强制性报告的政策变化对公司绩效的影响,但对包括印度在内的新兴经济体的道德资本对公司绩效的影响知之甚少。

PurposeToday’s pressing global societal challenges are urgent and require substantial solutions and innovations that tackle the roots of a problem. These challenges call for new forms of leadership, stakeholder engagement and innovation. This paper aims to examine whether, why and how business leaders engage in social innovation. The authors argue that leadership perspective and motivation are important drivers for developing substantial social innovations suited to resolving societal challenges at their roots. More specifically, the authors propose that intra-personal factors (degree of care and compassion), an inter-relational perspective of leadership (shareholder versus stakeholder) and the corresponding leadership motivation (personalized versus socialized) may unveil what quality of social innovation (first-order versus second-order solutions) is pursued by a business leader. Implications for future research and practice are provided.Design/methodology/approachThe authors revisit the concept of social innovation and explore its connection with care and compassion. They suggest a series of propositions pertaining to the relationship between different configurations of leadership and different forms of social innovation.FindingsResponsible business leaders with an integrative leader trait configuration (stakeholder perspective, socialized motivation, high degree of care and compassion) are more likely to foster substantial second-order social innovations for uprooting societal problems than business leader with an instrumental leader trait configuration (shareholder perspective, personalized motivation, low degree of care and compassion). An organization’s stakeholder culture plays a moderating role in the relation between leadership and social innovation.Social implicationsThis paper reveals a path for conceptualizing leadership in social innovation from a stakeholder perspective. Future research should investigate the role of business leaders, their mindsets, styles and relational competencies in co-creation processes of social innovation empirically. If the development of substantial second-order social innovations requires leaders with a stakeholder perspective and socialized approach, then this has implications for leader selection and development.Originality/valueThis paper advocates for new kinds of leaders in facilitating and sustaining social innovations to tackle global societal challenges.
目的当今紧迫的全球社会挑战迫在眉睫,需要解决问题根源的实质性解决方案和创新。这些挑战需要新形式的领导力、利益相关者的参与和创新。本文旨在考察企业领导者是否、为什么以及如何参与社会创新。作者认为,领导视角和动机是发展实质性社会创新的重要驱动力,这些创新适合从根源上解决社会挑战。更具体地说,作者提出,个人内部因素(关心和同情的程度)、领导的相互关系视角(股东与利益相关者)和相应的领导动机(个性化与社会化)可能揭示了企业领导者追求的社会创新质量(一阶与二阶解决方案)。对未来的研究和实践提供了启示。设计/方法论/方法作者重新审视了社会创新的概念,并探讨了它与关怀和同情的联系。他们提出了一系列关于不同领导结构和不同形式的社会创新之间关系的命题。发现具有综合领导者特质配置(利益相关者视角、社会化动机、高度关心和同情)的负责任的企业领导者比具有工具型领导者特质配置的企业领导者更有可能促进实质性的二阶社会创新,以根除社会问题(股东视角、个性化动机、关怀和同情程度低)。组织的利益相关者文化在领导力和社会创新之间的关系中起着调节作用。社会含义本文从利益相关者的角度揭示了社会创新中领导力概念化的途径。未来的研究应该实证研究商业领袖在社会创新共创过程中的作用、他们的心态、风格和关系能力。如果实质性的二阶社会创新的发展需要具有利益相关者视角和社会化方法的领导者,那么这对领导者的选择和发展具有影响。独创性/价值本文倡导新型领导者促进和维持社会创新,以应对全球社会挑战。

PurposeNowadays, Bitcoin is facing many environmental problems arising from the proof of work based on blockchain. For this reason, Bitcoin Green (BITG) has been created and would solve these issues. The purpose of this paper is to visualize the users’ perception toward BITG through Twitter text analysis.Design/methodology/approachThe big data used in this study includes two sources. The first data were extracted from the “Google Trends” engine during the period between 20 September 2015 and 15 September 2020. The second data were extracted from the Twitter application. This research explores the perceived ease of use, the perceived usefulness, the social influence, the perceived control and the user attitudes toward BITG. Therefore, lexicon-based sentiment analysis techniques combined with different dictionaries are built to visualize the drivers of investor attitudes toward the BITG using Twitter text messages. Besides, this study has checked the validity of two main assumptions using the normality (Jarque-Bera) and Kruskal-Wallis rank sum tests capable to conclude whether users mostly perceive BITG as a sustainable technology.FindingsThis empirical work affords insights into users’ intentions by exploring the drivers of BITG perception. The results show that users positively perceive the use of BITG as a sustainable blockchain. Besides, its usefulness is more appreciated from its ethical and technological characteristics, and its perceived application is mainly based on investment and coin offering use. Similarly, users are mostly showing positive emotions toward BITG.Research limitations/implicationsTweets related to “BITG” are not as voluminous as the other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, which make it difficult to extract all the characteristics and use cases.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, this work is the first one that uses the theory of planned behavior and the theory of acceptance model to explore cognitive factors in understanding investor intentions in adopting BITG.
目的如今,比特币面临着许多基于区块链的工作证明所带来的环境问题。出于这个原因,比特币绿色(BITG)已经创建,并将解决这些问题。本文的目的是通过Twitter文本分析来可视化用户对BITG的感知。设计/方法论/方法本研究中使用的大数据包括两个来源。第一批数据是在2015年9月20日至2020年9月15日期间从“谷歌趋势”引擎中提取的。第二个数据是从Twitter应用程序中提取的。本研究探讨了用户对BITG的易用性、有用性、社会影响、控制感和态度。因此,建立了基于词典的情绪分析技术,结合不同的词典,使用推特短信来可视化投资者对BITG态度的驱动因素。此外,本研究使用正态性(Jarque Bera)和Kruskal-Wallis秩和检验检验了两个主要假设的有效性,这两个检验能够得出用户是否大多认为BITG是一种可持续技术的结论。发现这项实证工作通过探索BITG感知的驱动因素,深入了解用户的意图。结果表明,用户积极认为BITG是一种可持续的区块链。此外,它的有用性更多地体现在其道德和技术特征上,其感知应用主要基于投资和硬币发行使用。同样,用户大多对BITG表现出积极的情绪。研究限制/含义与“BITG”相关的推文不如比特币和以太坊等其他加密货币那么多,这使得很难提取所有特征和用例。独创性/价值据作者所知,这项工作是第一项使用计划行为理论和接受模型理论来探索在采用BITG时理解投资者意图的认知因素的工作。

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the impact of remittance inflow on households’ savings behaviour in Bangladesh. Remittances are considered as the countercyclical flow of income for its recipient economies. It surges the liquidity of the households receiving remittances, allows them to endure local economic shocks and facilitates them to practice productive activities. Remittances often form a big pool of resources for investment which complement the national savings and support the country’s growth through higher rates of capital accumulation. Therefore, if a significant portion of the remittance is used for savings it can lead to prominent economic growth in the long term.Design/methodology/approachExisting literature indicates remittance-receiving households have a greater propensity to use remittance income to meet basic consumption. However, based on the survey conducted by the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics on remittances and household savings (SIR, 2016) and using the ordinary least square regression analysis method, to identify the connection between remittances and household’s saving (SIR, 2016) and using the ordinary least square regression analysis method, to identify the connection between remittances and household’s savings behaviour in Bangladesh.FindingsThe findings of this study represent remittances encourage households to pursue different kinds of savings in Bangladesh. Savings are made in the form of opening savings accounts, deposit pension scheme/fixed deposits/Bonds, insurance policies, also savings through non-governmental organizations, cooperative societies and savings at home. Other than remittances the demographic characteristics of the household head also influence the savings choices.Originality/valueTo enable the implementation of appropriate policies to boost savings, analysis from both perspectives; the household and the national level, requires strong vigilance and surveillance.
目的本研究旨在检验汇款流入对孟加拉国家庭储蓄行为的影响。汇款被视为受援国经济的反周期收入流动。它增加了接受汇款的家庭的流动性,使他们能够承受当地的经济冲击,并为他们从事生产活动提供便利。汇款通常形成一个巨大的投资资源库,补充国民储蓄,并通过更高的资本积累率支持国家增长。因此,如果汇款的很大一部分用于储蓄,从长远来看,可以带来显著的经济增长。设计/方法/方法现有文献表明,接受汇款的家庭更倾向于使用汇款收入来满足基本消费。然而,基于孟加拉国统计局对汇款和家庭储蓄的调查(SIR,2016),并使用普通最小二乘回归分析方法,确定汇款与家庭储蓄之间的联系(SIR(2016)),并采用普通最小二乘回归方法,以确定汇款与孟加拉国家庭储蓄行为之间的联系。这项研究的结果代表了汇款鼓励孟加拉国家庭追求不同类型的储蓄。储蓄的形式包括开立储蓄账户、存款养老金计划/定期存款/债券、保险单,以及通过非政府组织、合作社储蓄和在家储蓄。除了汇款,户主的人口特征也影响储蓄选择。独创性/价值使实施适当的政策以促进储蓄,从两个角度进行分析;家庭和国家层面,需要高度警惕和监督。
