Coclusions

In view of the above it can be concluded that CSR is no longer

exclusively practiced in developed countries; companies in the developing countries like bangladesh are showing interest and commitment to CSR as well. Although most people appreciate the recent advancement of CSR, some argue that corporations are still not doing enough or are only acting in self interest.

Furthermore, stakeholder expectations, critical social issues, norms, and values, and institutional and sociological requirements also change over time.
