Abstract

Corporate philanthropy plays an important role in enhancing firm reputation and financial performance. Further, board structure has the responsibility to make philanthropic decisions. This study investigates the moderating role of board structure on the relationship between corporate philanthropy and financial performance. We apply fixed effect model for analysing the results, while generalized method of moments (GMM) is employed to check the robustness of the results. We find that corporate philanthropy has a significant positive impact on financial performance. Further, results provide support for the moderating role of board attributes. The findings suggest that the policymakers should take appropriate decisions regarding corporate philanthropy while considering other factors such as board attributes.
