Abstract:
This paper presents preliminary findings of an online survey administered to the members of a national finance professional association. The survey was designed to provide insights into perceptions regarding organizational core values, managerial and individual ethics, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and organizational performance outcomes. A descriptive summary and bivariate analyses are presented. The bivariate analysis focuses on relationships found in previous studies, and on variables offering insights into the finance industry. The results suggest that further analysis is required and may verify the results of previous studies and research findings regarding relationships between the ethics and CSR constructs.
