The aim of the article is to try to define the relationship between the corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the creating shared value (CSV) concepts and marketing strategy. To achieve this goal, a method of critical analysis of national and foreign literature relating to these issues was used. On this basis, conclusions were formulated defining the scope and content of these relations. They relate primarily to a company’s mission, marketing research and marketing strategy. The relationship between the CSV concept and marketing strategy can be particularly seen in the evaluation and selection of new geographic markets and new buyer segments. They refer to changes in product policy – creation of products constituting common value. Relationships also relate to distribution policy, which may include the creation of local clusters and the inclusion of companies from these markets in production and distribution.

Purpose This paper aims to explore the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and corporate financial performance (CFP) from a shared value perspective. Adopting reputation as a multilevel form of value that mediates the CSR–CFP relationship, the paper explains how CSR initiatives may enhance both firm and country reputation and how the amount of shared value between the two leads to CFP. Design/methodology/approach The paper first establishes the theoretical foundation for the relationship between CSR and CFP. It then draws connections to a more recent stream of literature surrounding the concept of creating shared value to expand upon this relationship, adopting reputation as a multilevel form of shared value that mediates the CSR–CFP relationship. The paper further discusses moderating influences of this relationship that may vary contextually with emerging economies such as those in Latin America. Findings The paper argues that as markets become further developed, CSR initiatives will create a higher proportion of shared reputational value between a corporation and country. This is the result of from aligning CSR initiatives that benefit a society, with the strategic goals of the firm – the essence of creating of shared value – but is more difficult in emerging markets, especially volatile ones. Originality/value This paper offers insight into a complex relationship between CSR, shared reputational value and CFP by introducing the more recent concept of creating shared value. Several propositions related to this general relationship, and some related to the difference among emerging markets (such as those in Latin America), address the need for more research related to corporate and country reputation, creating shared value and in the emerging market context.

This article describes how recently, there has been a shift in corporate social responsibility (CSR) to creating shared value (CSV), filling the gap between the strategies underlying competitive advantage and sustainability. Although the principles of CSR and CSV have been broadly studied and investigated, there is still little academic research focusing on the transitions regarding on economic, social, and environmental sustainability. In this article, literature and a case study were reviewed and analyzed to identify differences and contributing factors towards sustainability, based on value co-creation and collaboration approaches. The authors' findings present that the CSV emphasizing on co-created value with the cross-sector collaboration leads to the sustainability. Working together with local people or social organizations enables deep understanding of local context and understand the real social and environmental issues. The study contributes to sustainability and business literature by investigating insights into the sustainability of CSR and CSV, and strengthening the importance of social involvement.

Creating shared value has been a new strategic management paradigm for professional sport teams around the world. However, despite the active participation of professional sport teams in creating a shared value program, research that addresses its effectiveness appears to be very limited. The present study investigates the influence of sport fans’ perceived creating shared value on team trust and fan loyalty and the moderating effects of sport fans’ altruism on the relationship between creating shared value and team trust in the Korean professional volleyball league. A total of 198 Korean volleyball fans participated in the present study. Results revealed that sport fans’ perceived economic and social values had significant impacts on team trust and, in turn, team trust significantly affected fan loyalty. However, the moderating effect of sport fans’ altruism was not found on the relationships between creating shared value and team trust. Consequently, the present study’s findings may provide professional sport teams’ marketers with the rationale as to the effectiveness of launching creating shared value programs.
