THESIS REPORT ON Present and Prospect of Corporate Social Responsibility: A Study on the Banking Sector of Bangladesh

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The banking system plays a critical role in underpinning economic development. Banking  sectors of Bangladesh has shown a great success in all areas of operation with a view to improve the socio-economic development of the country.

Awareness of issues in socially and environmentally responsible business and organizational practices is increasing among users of  financial services in Bangladesh. Banks and  financial institutions will therefore be well advised to adopt CSR practices in formal, structured manner inline with global norms. Socially and environmentally responsible practices will, besides fulfilling the moral obligations involved, also help preserve competitive edge in client bases sensitive to these concerns. Further, the disadvantaged population segments aided by social responsibility initiatives will hopefully constitute their future new client bases.

This study reviews recent CSR activities of banks, in light of the BB guidance circular issued in June 2008 for mainstreaming CSR practices in the  financial sector in Bangladesh. The financial sector in turn can contribute hugely by catalyzing CSR practices in their real sector corporate clients, promoting inclusive economic and social development. I hope this report will be useful for banks and  financial institutions in learning from each other’s examples.
