This may stem from flawed analyses by regressing financial performance on corporate social performance, and/or perhaps from several inadequately controlled variables. Previous studies did not recognize investment in research and development as a critical variable because there is considerable empirical evidence to indicate that it has a strong positive impact on profitability. This misidentification creates biased estimates of the financial impact of CSR. Between 2002 and 2004, we examined 1000 Taiwanese cases in which firms include their R&D expenditures as one of their business strategies for sustainable development; they also identify their charitable expenditures as contributions to CSR. Based on theoretical assertions and empirical evidence in the literature, we identified a positive relationship between CSR and financial performance. When the model is properly specified, we found that while CSR does not have much positive impact on short-term financial performance, it does offer a remarkable long-term fiscal advantage.
