The Relationship between Demographic Characteristics of Entrepreneurs and CSP An Empirical Research on Listed Companies in China

摘要：

The depth of research on the relationship between corporate social performance (CSP) and corporate financial performance (CFP) is significant. However, previous research has not paid adequate attention to the antecedents of CSP. In this paper, we examine the relationship between the demographic characteristics of entrepreneurs and corporate social performance based the upper echelons theory. Using a sample of listed companies of manufacturing in China, our findings indicate that entrepreneurs with output functions experience are connected with higher CSP. In addition, entrepreneurs with shorter tenure are more likely to perform higher CSP.
