With the increasing role assigned to the social mission of business in the formation of a positive image in front of the public, the problem of evaluating the activities in the field of corporate social responsibility (CSR) by organizations focused on successful development is becoming increasingly relevant. The article discusses the various approaches currently used in practice (including standards, sustainability indices, self-assessment models) that allow evaluating the activities of organizations in the field of CSR. Such a variety of evaluation methods is due to the fact that each of them has a number of limitations in its application, which should be considered. As a result of systematization of the approaches to CSR assessment considered in the framework of the study, their comparative analysis was carried out in key areas of CSR. A significant result of the presented scientific work is the determination of the most appropriate method for assessing the activities of mediumsized businesses in all areas of CSR (environmental, social, economic, stakeholders, neighborliness).

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is one of the obligations that must be carried out by companies in accordance with the contents of article 74 of Law Number 40 of 2007 concerning Perseroan Terbatas. The purpose of this study is to find out about the ideal management of CSR for limited liability companies. This research is a normative study, using a conceptual approach and legislative approach. Based on the results of the study found that the CSR obligation norms for the company seem indecisive, because Social Responsibility has not been explicitly set about CSR mechanisms specifically in regulations, standards "propriety” and “reasonableness” in CSR budgeting, the form of implementation and who is competent in assessing the reasonableness and propriety must be clearly regulated in government regulations so that CSR management is directed and measurable.

Corporate Social responsibility is the corporate social responsibility of the Community and the environment beyond economic responsibility. Corporate Social Responsibility is initially based on ethical and moral values, i.e. the company is considered unethical when enjoying great gains, while the environment is broken and the community is ignored or harmed by its rights. The implementation of CSR in Indonesia began at the time of Law No. 40 year 2007 about the limited liability company. However, the implementation of the CSR stipulated in Article 74 Act No. 40 year 2007 concerning the limited liability company shall cause inconsistency with the preceding provisions, as stipulated in article 1 Figure 3 of Law No. 40 year 2007 on Limited liability company. This is seen from the difference of basic concept to the social responsibility of the original social responsibility (moral obligation), as stated in article 1 Number 3 UUPT, become legal obligation (legal obligation) in article 74 Law number 40 year 2007 about the limited liability company. In addition, no provisions on sanctions for those who do not implement CSR in Law No. 40 year 2007 about the limited liability company also provide legal uncertainty in the implementation of CSR.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) earlier applied as corporate philanthropy and has been in practice in India since ages. However, philanthropy in globalised and modern India does not solve the purpose in quantity and quality. Clause 135 of Company Act 2013 created huge hue and cry among the business community in India. As per clause 135 of the Companies Act, 2013, Every company with an annual turnover of 1,000 crore INR ($161 million) and more, or a net worth of 500 crore INR ($80 million) and more, or a net profit as low as five crore INR ($800,000) and more have to spend at least 2% of their average net profit over the previous three years on CSR activities. With the introduction of new Company act 2013 India became the first country in the world to have legislation for compulsory CSR spending. The paper aims at analyzing the motive of making CSR spending mandatory and it also attempts to explain the concept of CSR in the present Indian scenario, the social issues addressed by the Indian corporations, and methodologies adopted by them to address those issues.

Purpose Coffee is among the primary products that attract the public attention to the social and environmental responsibilities of companies. Coffee shops have a big carbon footprint because of their daily operations. With the rising consciousness about sustainability in developing countries, online disclosure of corporate social responsibility (CSR) is becoming increasingly important for not only multinational but also local coffee chains. The purpose of this study is to analyze the extent to which coffee chains include CSR on their websites. Design/methodology/approach Turkey, which is a large emerging economy with an expanding coffee chain market, is selected as the research context. The CSR disclosure on the websites of coffee chains is examined by content analysis according to CSR dimensions. A sample of 27 coffee chains with more than ten stores is included in the analysis. Findings Foreign coffee chains disclose more information on the environment and fair trade than local coffee chains. On the other hand, CSR content in websites of foreign and local coffee chains does not differ significantly in human resources and community dimensions. Foreign coffee chains have comparatively longer brand history, more rooted brands and larger networks than local coffee chains. Originality/value To the best of the author’s knowledge, this study is the first that used a content analysis about CSR on the websites of coffee chains in Turkey. Findings contribute to the understanding of CSR disclosure in the coffee chain industry and can be beneficial for researchers and managers in other emerging markets.

Development banks play an active role in smoothing growth of world’s disadvantaged areas. The social mission of development banks requires that they pay attention to corporate social responsibility (CSR) and to the social outcome of financing activities. However, like any other financial institution, they must consider the business sustainability and the financial stability over time. Thus, a comprehensive loan appraisal process should include financial and social aspects. Literature does not properly investigate development banks loan appraisal process, thus the aim of this paper is to contribute to this stream of literature, analysing how development banks can include the evaluation of social and environmental variables within their loan appraisal process. For the purpose of the research, we employed a case study of the Rwanda Development Bank (BRD). The BRD loan appraisal process combines the evaluation of typical aspects of corporate social responsibility – like the firms or projects compliance to health and safety regulations or the implementation of the code of ethics including diversity policies – with the evaluation of social and environmental impact, as well with financial aspects. The BRD social impact assessment is also valuable because it follows the criteria of proportionality of loans evaluation, balancing completeness of information with the cost of the assessment.
