The Contribution Of Islamic Banks In Corporate Social Responsibility Practices

Abstract

Islamic banks are known by their Shari'a principles. These principles bring Islamic finance closer to socially responsible practices. Both concepts have the same goal of common well-being. The purpose of this article is to outline the deployment of CSR in an Islamic bank. Our problem revolves around the following question: Do Islamic banks take into account the different practices of CSR? In order to provide answers to this reflection, we have opted for a documentary study in order to analyze the content and quality of the information present in the annual activity report of an Islamic bank. The data was processed using the Nvivo qualitative analysis software. The results showed that the bank takes into consideration all the dimensions of CSR by giving particular attention to one dimension despite the others, in particular the two social and economic aspects.
