In recent years, popular theories such as ‘stakeholder theory’ and ‘legitimacy theory’ have emphasized the importance of the ‘social responsibilities of businesses’ in a greater way. These theories are based on the argument that, apart from pursuing the profit-maximizing objective, organizations need to be responsible for their activities in society. Further, the continued operation and success of business activities are dependent on compliance with societal expectations and gaining support for continued existence in society. 1 Stakeholder theory argues that corporations should be accountable not only to shareholders but also to other stakeholder groups, such as employees, consumers, the government, suppliers, interest groups and the public. In general, a stakeholder can be defined as any group or individual who can affect or is affected by the achievement of the firm’s objectives. 2 It has been said that:

…social responsibility activities are useful in developing and maintaining satisfactory relationships with stockholders, creditors and political bodies. Developing a corporate reputation as being socially responsible through performing and disclosing social responsibility activities is part of a strategy for maintaining stakeholder relationships. 3

Corporate social responsibility in bangladesh– an economic perspective.

assignment on corporate social responsibility in bangladesh

In this modern era, business entities are not only responsible for their own development. They are equally responsible for the country’s economic condition. If corporate houses understood its responsibility towards the society and gave constant effort towards building a stronger economy, the country would have been developed more.

Corporate social responsibility is the process where the self regulations are treated as an integral part of the corporate business model. Corporate citizenship, sustainable responsible business, social performance and corporate conscience – all refer to corporate social responsibility. In the process of self regulation, corporate policies are adopted. These policies help the business to be monitored. Apart from this, self regulation also aims to bear the responsibility of the company’s actions, as well as highlight the positive impacts on the community, consumers, employees, environment, and other associated people and stakeholders. 

In Bangladesh, corporate social responsibility’s evaluation refers to the cultural norms of the business, whereby it had brought positive impacts to the society, community, culture and the environment. Most big companies of Bangladesh set up a CSR team. This team is responsible for planning the goals, strategies and formulating policies for the CSR program. It also set funds and budgets for the program. The social philosophy of the business with a clear objective and working towards a positive direction are the determinants of these programs. CSR programs, taken by these companies generally cover issues such as community and education development, healthcare and environment.

Comprehensive CSR methods have been developed by several Bangladeshi top corporate houses including Navana Group, Pran Group, Beximco Group. Under the program, companies provide prominent facilities such as villager empowerment, building public schools, medical and sanitation facilities to the underprivileged communities. Additionally, in a bid to make villagers more self reliant and assist in knowledge about business operation, vocational programs are organized. For instance many local pharmaceutical companies focus on the health aspect at community levels and provide treatment and up to date medical checkup facility.

Apart from these, most of the NGOs work on organizing awareness programs related to education and health in the distant and remote villages. Many big companies organize programs jointly with the NGOs. In order to bring the socio-economic development on fast tract, the government should extend its supports to the joint efforts undertaken by the corporate houses and NGOs. Doing so would help improving the strategic thinking, expertise and manpower skill.

Prof. Himanshu Agarwal

“The Customer who comes to us is very important for us. He is not because of us but we are because of him.” These words of Mahatma Gandhi are simple in first reading but they are not in further readings. These words place deepest impressions of responsibility. Responsibility towards our customers; Responsibility towards the place from where he is coming; Responsibility towards the surroundings he lives in ….. the Society. We all are social animals. If we will not feel any sense of responsibility to our society, our society will also become neutral to us. And, for a business organization, society matters more. Business organizations can not exist in isolation. Business and society co- exist. They are the tow sides of the same coin. Every business has some obligations towards society. Haward Bowever has rightly said that “Social responsibility of business includes high level of employment, high standard of living, swift economic progress, economic stability and national security.” The concept of CSR bears both pros and cons. Where on a ground of theoretical evidences, this concept is really remarkable and puts our economic development in the chair of welfare state. But, if read between the lines, business houses are playing the game with CSR. Moreover, even the political parties in run to achieve high success during elections and to register high performance during their regimes in states and centre are using the wonder word. They have slightly tilted it as “Social Engineering”. Mayawati – the mighty Chief Minister of UP used successfully this technique for registering the both high success and high performance.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an important issue in contemporary business, management and politics, especially since the launch of the United Nations Global Compact in 2000 as an initiative to encourage businesses worldwide to adopt sustainable and socially responsible policies, and to report on them. CSR is essentially a concept whereby firms integrate social and environmental concerns in their business operations and in their interaction with their voluntary and mandatory activities.

For companies, the overall aim is to achieve a positive impact on society as a whole, while maximizing the creation of shared value for the owners of the business, its employees, shareholders and stakeholders. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become one of the standard business practices of our time. CSR is "the responsibility of enterprises for their impacts on society'. There are actually 2 different types of CSR to consider. The 1 st one consists of corporations providing funding and resources for worthwhile social causes, such as donating money or employee time to charities. The 2 nd type of CSR involves putting together a real plan to produce goods or provide services that are in the best interests of society. The most successful CSR programs integrates these 2 types of CSR together.CSR is now more of a direct corporate response to consumers' ever growing demands for transparency. It improves public image, increases media coverage, boosts employee engageme...

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), a word which was first coined in 1953, has gained a lot of attention in the present era of Globalization, involving corporates, educationists and social activists from all over the world. CSR can simply be defined as the commitment by business to enhance economic development, while at the same time improving the quality of life of the workforce, their families and the society at large. The concept has arisen from the fact the enterprise derives benefits from the society and it is but that they provide them benefits in return. The opening up of the Indian economy after 1991 has resulted in the integration of business economy with the global economy. This has exposed Indian business to market competition. One of the chief indicators of social progress is education, which plays a key role in questioning the society in achieving self-sustainability and equal development.

Corporate social responsibility (CSR), additionally called corporate conscience, corporate citizenship, social execution, or maintainable mindful business is a type of corporate self-direction incorporated into a plan of action. The objective of CSR is to grasp obligation regarding the organization's activities and empower a positive effect through its exercises on nature, purchasers, workers, groups, partners and every single other individual from people in general circle. CSR strategy would work as an inherent, automatic system whereby business would screen and guarantee their adherence to law, moral guidelines, and universal standards. Corporate Social Responsibility is an exceptionally surely understood idea in the present day world. In the cutting edge times the idea CSR consolidates and endeavors to clarify and elucidate various co related and uncorrelated issues unconventionally, especially or particularly germane to social and ecological interests and welfare, keeping in full view the budgetary interests and advantages of the shareholders. Duty has pretty much taken the state of responsibility and commitment. Business morals have additionally been brought into the field of corporate social obligation. The invention of social sites has changed the way corporates work. The future routine of corporate towards social welfare is brilliant if the partners apply more weight and request more from the organizations. Human resource development (HRD) is progressively anticipated that would assume a facilitative part in corporate social responsibility (CSR), supportability, and morals in associations. Recent reviews and studies have demonstrated that the earth is bit by bit turning into a hazardous place to live because of unsustainable human incited exercises.

Corporate Social Responsibility refers to ensuring the success of the business by inclusion of social and environmental considerations into a company’s operations. It means satisfying your shareholders’ and customers’ demands while also managing the expectation of other stakeholders such as employeessuppliers and the community at large. It also means contributing positively to society and managing your organization’s environmental impact. Hence, CSR is a contribution to sustainable development, implying the way a company balances its economic, environmental and social objectives while addressing stakeholder expectations and enhancing shareholder value. The CSR concept -was initially used by national companies more as a marketing and media coverage instrument, rather than for its ethical values. As time went by, it became clear that-the business environment is a key element in finding solutions to community issues. This research paper-aims at analyzing the importance of

A significant number of studies have been conducted on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and its impact on different business organizations. However, no such study has been witnessed so far that could explain the nature of the amount involved in the CSR spending. The main purpose of the study is to analyze the viewpoint of different organizations that how they consider this CSR spending. In a current scenario, organizations have failed to take responsibility for what they are operating, so it is needed to consider the real cost of their functioning which brings a focus toward the environmental and social concerns. On the other hand, CSR also became legitimate spending stipulated in the Indian companies act, 2013. According to the act, every business organization is a responsible player to build an equitable society and for that CSR should be a part of the DNA of every organization. Through this paper, we made an attempt to see the nature of CSR adopted by different organizations, whether it is voluntary or mandatory. We reviewed some survey reports made on CSR before and after the Indian companies act, 2013. These reports provide a perspective on CSR perceptions of different business organizations. For empirical analysis, we have analyzed 100 listed companies’ financial reports to know whether CSR mandate impact their performance or not. Using a difference-in-difference approach, we found that before the legitimation of CSR the performance found to be better than post CSR legislation. This paper is also an attempt to present a conceptual analysis of the CSR spending before and after its legitimation in India which will help us to determine whether it should be treated as an investment opportunity or a forced liability.

Overview of Corporate Social Responsibility:

Bangladesh is one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. The people of this country are deeply committed to Islamic way of life as enshrined in the Holy Qur’an and the Sunnah. Naturally, it remains a deep cry in their hearts to fashion and design their economic lives in accordance with the precepts of Islam. The establishment of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited on March 13, 1983, is the true reflection of this inner urge of its people, which started functioning with effect from March 30, 1983. This Bank is the first of its kind in Southeast Asia. It is committed to conduct all banking and investment activities on the basis of interest-free profit-loss sharing system. In doing so, it has unveiled a new horizon and ushered in a new silver lining of hope towards materializing a long cherished dream of the people of Bangladesh for doing their banking transactions in line with what is prescribed by Islam. With the active co-operation and participation of Islamic Development Bank (IDB) and some other Islamic banks, financial institutions, government bodies and eminent personalities of the Middle East and the Gulf countries, Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited has by now earned the unique position of a leading private commercial bank in Bangladesh.

Achievements:

National and international ratings of IBBL

IBBL’s past performances have been evaluated by Bangladesh Bank, several credit rating agencies home & abroad and by the local press.

International Press:

“In the midst of a difficult Banking system known to be plagued by high non-performing loans (NPLs), one could easily conclude that it would be difficult to find a bank that is different from norm. However, IBBL provides a refreshing change and is, thus, a pleasant surprise. Although it does not command the market share as the 4 public sector banks, IBBL, which claims to have little interference in lending from the government, has nonetheless, managed to find a niche market of its own-says the ‘BANK ATCH’ a New York based international Credit Rating Agency in its January 30, 1998 issue. “As a market leader offering banking services based on the Islamic rule of Shariah, IBBL’s profitability trend has been quite impressive. The Bank’s ability to keep its return on asset (ROA) well above the industry’s average, reflected its resilience to possible shocks in the banking system. Concerns over massive NPLs and under provisioning are common amongst local banks. But this seems well resolved in IBBL. IBBL’s good performance and solid capital base have indeed provided refreshing change found within a banking system saddled and held back by huge NPLs” the above agency continued to comment in the same issue.

National Press:

“It is one of a few local banks according to CAMEL (Capital, Assets, Management, Earnings & Liquidity) rating made by the Bangladesh Bank. It holds the highest amount of liquidity among all banks and its ability to keep return on assets at 1.07 percent is well above the banking sector’s average of 0.33 percent”- The Financial Express, Dhaka commented in its issue of May 28,1998.

“The Holiday” in its 29th August, 1997 issue carried out a report under the heading “Setting a precedence of sound banking” and commented “While the country’s banking system is burdened with bad debt portfolios and also suffers from a liquidity shortage, the Islami Bank Bangladesh Ltd. (IBBL) has created a unique precedence by improving its reserve and deposit positions substantially, making handsome profits, and offering attractive dividends to its share holders and depositors.”

IBBL ‘s World rating:

As per Bankers’ Almanac (January 2001 edition) published by the Reed Business Information, Windsor Court, England, IBBL’s world Rank is 1771 among 3000 banks selected by them. This position was 1902 among 4500 selected banks as on January 1999 edition.

IBBL’s country Rank is 5 among 39 banks as per ratings made by the above Almanac on the basis of IBBL’s Financial Statements of the year 2001.

Special Scheme » Agriculture Implements Investment Scheme:

Bangladesh is predominantly an agricultural country with vast majority of people living in rural areas. Most of our people, for their living, are dependent on agriculture. Agriculture still contributes the lion share of the gross domestic product. But we could not as yet become self-sufficient in food production. We still import a bulk quantity of food grains from abroad to meet the deficit. This reliance on import has made us dependent on others. We must modernize our agriculture and establish more and more industries in order to minimize imports.

Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited is a welfare oriented Bank.

Publications:

The Bank, since its birth, has been relentlessly working to project and promote the lofty ideals of Islam in the fields of economics and banking and to reach the people of all walks of life and bring home to them the concept of Islamic banking. Thus, it has been able to create a favorable image about Islamic banking among the people. The Bank releases advertisements through radio, television, magazines and newspapers to make urban and rural masses aware of the ever growing concept, modes of operation, schemes and services of the Bank and to focus on its progress and motivate traders, businessmen and industrialists to establish and broaden their business links with the Bank. To promote healthy growth of art and literature in the country, literary magazines are patronized. The Bank has so far published a number of books, booklets, souvenirs and folders on different aspects of Islamic banking and Islamic economics. Attractive multi-colored posters were also published depicting the aims and objectives, people-oriented special investment schemes of the Bank.

National and international newspapers and magazines published features and in-depth reports on the progress of the Bank and made editorial comments praising the welfare activities of the Bank.

Bank’s quarterly research journal ‘Islami Banking’ highlighting the concept of Islamic economy, banking, insurance, prospect of economic collaboration among the Muslim countries etc. started its publication in 1992 which has been widely acclaimed by all sections of people including academicians, economists, bankers, journalists, judges, intellectuals etc. A periodical house magazine named ‘Islami Bank Parikrama’ is being published regularly as the mouthpiece of the Bank. Discussion meetings, seminars, symposia, workshops are also being arranged to apprise the people of the Islamic banking system. Stalls and booths were opened in different national and international fairs for projecting the activities of the Bank

RURAL DEVELOPMENT SCHEME:

Bangladesh with its 40% people living below poverty line and 18% living in absolute poverty is suffering from acute rural-urban economic disparity coupled with illiteracy, lack of proper health and sanitation facilities. The country’s economy is basically an agrarian one with vast majority living in rural areas. The agriculture sector is unable to provide any further scope for employment resulting in influx of rural population towards urban areas. Rural areas are characterized by stagnant agriculture and scanty industries. Underemployment and unemployment is a regular phenomenon particularly in rural areas. The vast human resources have remained unutilized due to lack of education, proper training and concerted efforts to help grow the rural economy. This results in uneven distribution of income which causes serious set back in balanced geographical growth as well as growth of GDP.

Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited was founded with the major objective of establishing Islamic economy for balanced economic growth by ensuring reduction of rural-urban disparity and equitable distribution of income.

In view of the above, Branches of the Bank have been encouraged to invest their deposits in their respective areas and in particular for the economic upliftment of the rural people.

Accordingly, a Scheme in the name and style of ‘Rural Development Scheme’ has been introduced to cater to the investment needs of the agriculture and rural sector to create opportunity for generation of employment and raising income of the rural people with a view to alleviate poverty.

The main objectives of the Scheme are:

To extend investment facilities to agricultural, other farming and off-farming activities in the rural areas.

To finance self-employment and income generating activities of the rural people, particularly the rural unemployed youths and the rural poor

 To alleviate rural poverty through integrated rural development approach

 To extend investment facilities for rural housing, keeping in view the needs of housing facilities of the rural dwellers

 To provide educational services and safe drinking water, sanitation & Medicare facilities to the down trodden people

TARGET AREA

Initially the Scheme was started as a Pilot Scheme in the rural areas of certain districts under the direct supervision of the nearby Branches of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited. The Scheme is being gradually extended to all districts through different Branches of the Bank.

Target Group:

Farmers having land holding of maximum 0.50 acres

Sharecroppers with consent from the landowners

 Persons engaged in off-farm activities having no land or land up-to-maximum 0.50 acres

 Persons/farmers permanently residing in the selected villages

 Persons having derelict pond will be eligible for investment for re-excavation and fish cultivation

 Destitute women and distressed people will be provided investment for milk cows/poultry birds/ducks/goats etc. and other suitable off-farm activities for raising their supplementary income

 Persons having liabilities with other banks/institutions including defaulters will not be eligible for investment under the Scheme

Rate of Return:

Bank’s rate of return is 10% per annum (flat) with a rebate of 2.5% for timely payment.

Security Requirements:

No security is required against investment under the Scheme as entire Scheme has been drawn taking into account the social welfare objective of the Bank for upliftment of the socially down-trodden and economically backward and weaker section of the population of the society. However, Group discipline should be strictly followed and complied with so that only the right persons are selected and included as members of the Group.

Besides, each member of the Group gives personal guarantee for other members of the same Group and the members are jointly and severally liable and responsible for payment of investment.

Documentation:

To secure Bank’s investment, the following documents have to be executed:

 Group guarantee form.

 Deed of Agreement.

Usual charge documents

Development of Manpower, Research, Training and Motivation

The principles and working procedures of Islamic Banks are completely new and different from the conventional banks. There is an inevitable need for training of the employees of the banks to orient and attune them to the new system of Islami banking. To cater to this need, Islami Bank training and Research Academy (IBTRA) was established in 1984, soon after the inception of the Bank.

The activities of IBTRA covers both training and research on various aspects of Islamic banking. The Academy developed a rich library of its own with a treasure of valuable books on different subjects including Islamic economics, banking, comparative philosophies and journals of home and abroad and research articles and documents. Employees of the Bank, learners and researchers have been taking full advantage of the library.

The Academy edited books on “Readings in Islamic Banking” and “Investment Operations”. It also edited and published a brochure on “Investment and Trade Opportunities in Bangladesh.”

Keeping in view the existing and future training requirement of the Bank and also to generally cater such needs of different Islamic banking & financial institutions of the region, the management of Islami Bank Training and Research Academy has been placed at the disposal of an Academic Council consisting of 3 Directors of the Board, Management Executives of the Bank, Shariah scholar, renowned academicians and representatives of reputed institutions engaged in the training of bank officials of the country.

The Academy conducts training courses, and workshops. The courses include Islamic Banking, Banking Law and Practice, Investment Operations and Management, Foreign Trade and Foreign Exchange, Shariah Based Audit and Inspection.

Besides, orientation, induction, foundation and motivation courses on different subjects are also conducted round the year. In addition to conducting regular training courses, it arranges seminar on Islamic economics and banking and such other related topics of current interest.

Apart from this, an “Executive Development Programme” has been introduced at the Head Office of the Bank in Dhaka since 1988 for enriching knowledge and thought process and developing professional skill of the Executives. This programme has proved to be effective and now being extended outside Dhaka. The Academy conducts internship courses for the students of different Departments of various Universities of the country. The Bank introduced annual award for the best three students of the Department of Banking and Finance of Dhaka University who secure 1st class 1st, 2nd and 3rd with ‘Islami Banking’ as special subject from the year1994.

The Bank is also providing financial assistance for publication of a textbook on ‘Islamic economics and banking’ for the university students.

Besides, a motivational programme has been introduced since 1987 for the clients of the Bank. Client-orientation programme are arranged at different branches for disseminating the concept of Islamic economics and banking and to acquaint the clients with the operations of Islamic banking system.

The Bank, in 1993, co-sponsored a 3-day International Seminar on ‘Islamic Common Market’ in which scholars, economists, bankers, industrialists and representatives of trade bodies of 15 countries participated. The Bank, with the collaboration of International Association of Islamic Banks (IAIB), organised an International Seminar on Islamic Banking in1985 and another International Seminar on Islamic Banking and Insurance in 1989.

Islami Bank Training and ResearchAcademy has introduced Diploma in Islamic Banking since 1998.

Corporate Social Responsibility:

Taka 30 million sanctioned for the people affected by the devastating cyclone SIDR

Officers and staff of Islami Bank donated one day salary for the cyclone-victims

Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited is continuing relief distribution activities

Health care services:

A good number or newly graduated doctors from Medical Colleges are unemployed. Many of the medical graduates are waiting for job because the opportunity for Government service is limited. If these young doctors could be self-employed by extending investment facilities, they could make modern medical facilities available at the door-steps of rural people. Besides, experienced and specialist physicians who are providing medicare facilities to the people in different towns with their limited and outdated medical equipment will be able to improve the standard of their techniques of treatment and also make the modern treatment facilities available to more people, if investment facilities are extended to them for procurement of modern and improved medical equipment. The constitution of Bangladesh has made it obligatory to ensure good health for all and the government is also committed to ensure good health for all by 2000 years. In view of the above facts, Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited has taken the initiative an introduced the “Doctors Investment Scheme” to ensure modern treatment and medical facilities available to the people through extension of Bank’s investment facilities for self-employment of newly graduated doctors and at the same time extending investment facilities to the established medical practitioners to procure modern and sophisticated medical equipment

To provide investment facilities for establishment of chambers, clinics, pharmacies and procurement of medical equipment by the unemployed medical graduates and thus to provide self- employment

 To assist newly passed unemployed medical graduates to establish clinics by way of formation of groups by 5 doctors

To assist experienced and established physicians to procure improved and modern medical equipment and thus to improve the standard and techniques of treatment

 To assist specialists and consultant physicians to procure specialised medical equipment for extending improved treatment to the people

The Foundation has, therefore, taken up the following Programs to improve the country’s educational scenario:

Though some private medical colleges have been established mostly in and around the capital but the tution fees and other charges are so high that the students of poor and middle class families can not afford it.

Keeping in view the objective to enable the students of poor and middle class families to be a doctor, Islami Bank Foundation has established a medical college in Rajsahi, a metropolitan city of northern part of the country. In the meantime, the classes of the students of 1st 2nd and 3rd batch are going in full swing. The construction work of the hospital building at Naodapra, the own site of the college, is also going on.

Islami Bank Foundation, through it’s various welfare activities, has been working to serve the destitute and distressed people as well as for the socio-economic development of the country.

Islami Bank Foundation wants to expand the on-going projects throughout the country and also wishes to undertake new ones for the overall development of the country. The Foundation is looking forward for sincere assistance and co-operation from philanthropic persons and institutions from home and abroad to materialize its noble and cherished objectives. Zakat and Donations may be credited to Islami Bank Foundation Account Nos. 02101005 (Zakat) and 02101014 (Donation) maintained with lslami Bank Bangladesh Ltd., Head Office Complex Branch, 40, Dilkisha Commercial Area, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh.

The youths with skills in various sectors of technology may become self-employed in the land and can also get employment opportunities abroad. Islami Bank Foundation has, therefore, established 3 Technical Institutes, two in Dhaka and another in Bogra, which are rendering training facilities in Computer, Secretarial Science, Driving, Electrical, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, Radio & TV, Tailoring and Garments etc.

Most of the organizations unfortunately, try with development techniques from a standpoint, which often turn antagonistic to the belief and social norms of the people. The renowned foreign and national NGOs have their established training centre(s) where they train their own people and also rent out the facilities to others. Islami Bank Foundation has decided to establish a training centre of its own named ” Centre for Development Dialogue” which will create opportunity for imparting training facilities for its own staff members as well as the staff members of other development organizations.
