“…Earlier studies in the context of Bangladesh witnessed modest CSR disclosures and provided mostly employeerelated descriptive information that raised the question of data integrity (Rashid et al, 2019). Moreover, Azim et al (2009) also reported that only one-sixth of the publicly-traded companies in Bangladesh disclosed CSR issues voluntarily.…”

The study examines the impact of corporate governance mechanisms, such as board characteristics on corporate social responsibility disclosure (CSRD). The data on CSRD items and board characteristics have been collected by content analysis of the annual reports of 30 publicly-listed banks in Bangladesh covering six years, from 2013 to 2018. More specifically, the directors' report, the chairman's statement, notes to the financial statement and CSR disclosure reports included in annual reports were used to collect the CSRD data. The empirical analysis applies the ordinary least square and the generalized method of moments. The results of the study have revealed that board size, board independence, female board member, and foreign directors have a significant positive impact on CSRD. By contrast, political directors and audit committee size have a negative impact on CSRD. Interestingly, accounting experts on boards ensure more CSRD as they curb the influence of politicians on the board. Thus, it is better to increase accounting experts and decrease politicians on the board. These findings provide valuable insights into the process of forming a suitable CSR policy by connecting the efforts of the board, government, and regulatory bodies to enhance the performance of banks to CSR as well as to CSRD.

“…The term “social responsibility” originated in the 1950s and gained broad use in the 1970s (Shukair, 2015). Over the previous two decades, empirical research has started to establish the importance of CSR as a tool for business that benefits stakeholders (Rashid et al, 2019). We describe CSR in accordance with Aguinis's (2011) concept, which is situationally organizational activities and policies that include stakeholders' aspirations as well as the three pillars of financial, social, and environmental concerns.…”

Some researchers identified factors like institutional pressure [30] and green practice [31] as influencing the sustainability performance of the manufacturing industries in Bangladesh. Earlier studies conducted in developed and emerging economies have demonstrated the influence of ESG principles on sustainable business performance.…”

In this age of global warming, academics and policymakers are increasingly concerned about firm environmental sustainability success. Therefore, this study aims to investigate whether Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performance impacts sustainability performance through the mediating effect of firm innovation. To this end, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was deployed to analyze data collected from the employees of manufacturing industries in an emerging economy like Bangladesh. The results revealed that ESG performance significantly enhances the innovation and sustainability performance of manufacturing industries, indicating that the higher the ESG performance of a firm, the greater its innovation and sustainability performance. Furthermore, the results confirmed that firm innovation performance fully mediates the relationship between ESG initiatives and sustainability performance. The findings of this study provide policymakers and industry authorities with valuable insight into the role of ESG and innovation performance in improving sustainability performance. Specifically, the study sheds knowledge on how firm ESG initiatives and innovation performance impact sustainability performance in the manufacturing sector of an emerging economy like Bangladesh.
