Abstract
ABSTRACT
The study entitled “Corporate Social Responsibility and Performance in Nigerian
Deposit Money Bank” was designed to examine the impact of Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR) on the performance of Nigerian Deposit Money Bank. Three
research hypotheses were formulated in a null form. The aim was to examine to
what extent CSR proxies vis-a-vis Community Corporate Social Responsibility
(CCSR), Charity Contribution (CC) & Human Resources Development (HRM)
have impacted on the performance variable Return On Equity (ROE). The
population of the study comprises all the banks that survived the recapitalization
exercise. A sample of seven banks was selected using judgmental approach. This
approach seemed appropriate in selecting the sample size since set of criteria
were laid down and is only those that met the conditions were selected. The study
adopted descriptive research design as a research method. A set of model was
formulated to address the stated problem. Multiple regression models were used
to test the hypotheses at 5% significance level. All the hypotheses were rejected as
all the proxies(independent variables) were found to have statistical significant
impact on the performance variables at 5% significance level. The study
recommends that a dialogue should be made with the business world and other
stakeholders in determining common standards, reporting mechanisms and the
extent to which they should be responsible.
