Abstract
AbstractThe relation between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and financial performance (FP) has been widely dealt with in specialized literature. This study has two points of interest: first, we develop a new tool which financially quantifies the value contributed to companies that are committed to CSR; then, we make a practical application of this tool through an empirical study focused on Spanish companies. This study is especially innovative because of the fuzzy methodology used and the way it defines CSR through the IQNet SR10 certification of social responsibility systems. In addition, the measurement of CSR through IQNet SR10 certification is a completely new approach to the subject. An interesting conclusion can be drawn from the empirical study: IQNet SR10 CSR certification increases the value of businesses. However, neither size nor the economic sector they belong to influence this relationship significantly.
