The nexus between Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure (CSRD) and financial performance is an ongoing debate and a puzzle encountered by business organizations. This study is an attempt to address the question of whether CSRD is linked to financial performance of companies quoted on the Banks, Finance and Insurance sector in Sri Lanka. The sample includes only the companies that devote a separate section to disclose Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities in their annual reports as failure to disclose CSR in the annual reports will have a material effect on findings. Corporate Financial Performance (CFP) is measured through the use of Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE) controlled for size and leverage. Content analysis was utilized to develop the Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure Index (CSRDI). Two multiple regression models were analyzed using Stata. Findings of the study revealed that there is a significant association between Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure and future financial performance of the selected listed banks, finance and insurance companies in Sri Lanka.

Using panel data set from companies listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange in Kenya, a developing country, this paper examines the potential influence of corporate social responsibility disclosure (CSRD) on corporate financial performance. Using data from annual reports, CSRD information was collected for the period 2007-2015 using quantitative content analysis while financial performance data was collected for the period 2008-2016, a one-year lag behind CSRD data. Control variables were firm size, industry type and leverage. There was found to be no statistically significant impact of CSRD on financial performance. Since neutrality of the relationship is empirically proven, the conclusion is that CSRD has little or no contribution to financial performance and the implication is that effective financial reporting for companies listed on the NSE does not include reporting on CSR activities. Theoretically the study proposes that unequal controlling strengths of different stakeholders be assumed under the stakeholder theory for application within different national contexts in order for managers to be able to make the necessary tradeoffs among competing stakeholders.
