Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine how Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices in Bangladeshi banks influence customer trust and loyalty. It aims to understand whether CSR helps banks gain a competitive advantage, build stronger customer relationships, and improve long-term sustainability and profitability. Methods: This study uses a quantitative research approach. Data will be collected through a structured survey using stratified random sampling of 300 customers from at least five major banks in Bangladesh known for their CSR activities. The survey focuses on customer awareness, perception of CSR initiatives, trust, and loyalty, supported by secondary data such as CSR reports and academic literature. Data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation, and regression analysis, covering CSR dimensions such as community engagement, environmental sustainability, and financial inclusion in both urban and rural areas. Results: The study is expected to show that strong CSR practices improve customer perceptions of a bank’s ethics, reliability, and honesty, which boosts customer trust. Higher trust is likely to lead to greater customer loyalty, including retention and positive word-of-mouth. Banks that communicate CSR activities clearly are also expected to gain more satisfaction and brand advocacy. Findings will identify which CSR activities matter most and how they strengthen long-term customer relationships and competitive advantage. Conclusion: CSR is expected to significantly enhance customer trust and loyalty and reinforce sustainable competitive positioning for banks in Bangladesh. Limitation: This study is limited to selected banks and relies on self-reported survey responses, which may not fully capture customer behavior across the entire banking sector. Contribution: This study contributes to CSR, marketing, and banking strategy by providing empirical evidence on how CSR shapes trust and loyalty. It offers practical guidance for banks and policymakers and provides insights relevant to other developing countries.

Abstract

Purpose: The prevalence of cashless payments has increased globally owing to their myriad benefits. Furthermore, the use of cashless payments has also increased. Nevertheless, there is a need for more comprehensive research on the acceptance and current methodologies of cashless transactions. This study aims to gain a thorough understanding by identifying the entities involved and their pivotal functions in the payment ecosystem. Research Methodology: This report seeks to answer two research questions: i) Which factors are involved in the cashless payment ecosystem? What key elements influence the players in adopting a cashless payment ecosystem? Six key ecosystem players and their influencing elements were identified by comprehensively evaluating 63 publications published between 2015 and 2021. Results: Several benefits are associated with cashless payments, which have led to their growing popularity worldwide. Furthermore, during the COVID-19 epidemic, there was a significant increase in the use of cashless payment methods. Limitations: On the other hand, more holistic studies on the widespread use of cashless payment methods and their respective modern behaviors are needed. Contribution: In addition to providing a foundation for further empirical research, this study contributes to resolving adoption-related concerns. Novelty: This study’s original approach to understanding the various elements driving cashless payment system development by focusing on participant roles and functions is unique. Unlike previous studies, this study examines human dynamics rather than technology or regulatory issues.
