Summary/Abstract: Abstract: It has long been the subject of debate, what the role of a company should be in society, and just how much social responsibility companies should undertake as a direct response to stakeholder needs. As all economic activities require incentives, so do social responsibility actions require a tangible benefit towards reaching the company’s financial goals as shown by both theoretical and practical endeavors. Therefore, the research presented in the current paper aims to bridge the gap between social performance and financial performance, by testing the causal hypothesized relationship thought to exist between indicators of a company’s social performance and those that indicate financial performance.
