Abstract

Grounded on stakeholder theory and contemporary corporate social responsibility (CSR) literature, this study aims to investigate the broad categories of CSR programs (CSRPs) of scheduled banks and nonbanking financial institutions of Bangladesh Bank (the central bank of Bangladesh). This study also attempts to build the relationship between CSRPs and community perceptions of societal progress. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used to analyze the data collected from primary and secondary sources. The findings of this study show that CSRPs positively influence community perceptions of societal progress. The results of this study will have significant practical implications on societal progress and future research on CSR and community development.
