The impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) knowledge on corporate financial performance: evidence from the European banking industry

摘要

Purpose - Assuming that corporate social responsibility (CSR) is "a process of accumulating knowledge and experience" (Tang et al., 2012, p. 1298), this paper aims to investigate whether and how CSR knowledge (Asif et al., 2013; Kim, 2017) affects financial performance in the European banking industry.
