A central and contentious debate in many literatures concerns the relationship between financial and social performance. We advance this debate by measuring the financial-social performance link within mutual funds that practice socially responsible investing (SRI). SRI fund managers have an array of social screening strategies from which to choose. Prior studies have not addressed this heterogeneity within SRI funds. Combining modern portfolio and stakeholder theories, we hypothesize that the financial loss borne by an SRI fund due to poor diversification is offset as social screening intensifies because better managed and more stable firms are selected into its portfolio. We find support for this hypothesis through an empirical test on a panel of 61 SRI funds from 1972-2000. The results show that as the number of social screens used by an SRI fund increases, financial returns decline at first, but then rebound as the number of screens reaches a maximum. That is, we find a curvilinear relationship, suggesting that two long-competing viewpoints may be complementary. Furthermore, we find that financial performance varies with the types of social screens used. Community relations screening increased financial performance, but environmental and labor relations screening decreased financial performance. Based on our results, we suggest that literatures addressing the link between financial and social performance move toward in-depth examination of the merits of different social screening strategies, and away from the continuing debate on the financial merits of either being socially responsible or not.

Beyond dichotomy: the curvilinear relationship between social responsibility and financial performance

Article history: Received March 8, 2019 Received in revised format April 1, 2019 Accepted April 14 2019 Available online April 15 2019 This study is conducted to investigate the impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on supply chain management (SCM) and financial performance, and the effect of SCM on financial performance through the mediate role of corporate reputation and customer loyalty. In addition, the study tests the moderate role of firm size and the ratio of export products in the relationship between SCM and financial performance. The research sample is 389 Vietnamese garment and textile firms by collecting through survey questionnaire. The results show that corporate social responsibility has a positive impact on SCM and financial performance and SCM has a positive impact on financial performance. However, firm reputation and customer loyalty do not have any mediate role in the relationship between SCM and financial performance. Firm size and export product ratio play a moderate role with statistical significance in the relationship between SCM and financial performance. . nada , Ca by the authors; licensee Growing Science 2019 ©

Article history: Received April 21, 2020 Received in revised format June 8, 2020 Accepted July 11 2020 Available online July 11 2020 The objective of this paper is to assess the impact of transactional leadership on supply chain quality management and performance in tourism and travel enterprises in Vietnam. The analysis results were conducted on 298 typical tourism and travel enterprises in Vietnam in 2019. The testing results of the hypotheses show that transactional leadership had a positive impact on supply chain quality management and performance. At the same time, supply chain quality management did not play any full mediate role in the relationship between transactional leadership and performance. However, the qualification level had a statistically significant moderate role in the relationship between transactional leadership and performance. With the more highly qualified leaders, the more transactional leadership is applied, the higher the business performance for tourism and travel enterprises in Vietnam. . authors; license Growing Science, Canada 2020 by the ©
