A good company's financial performance is the proper and correct implementation of the strategy and applicable rules. Corporate Sustainability (CS) and digitalization have become important factors in this decade and their impact on banking financial performance.

Then, The Sample selection was carried out by selecting banking companies that issued sustainability reports and a final sample of 6 banks was obtained with 48 total observation for 8 years. The data source is secondary data obtained from the sustainability report and financial statements of banks listed on the IDX and published in 2013-2020. The results showed that digitalization significantly affects the bank’s financial performance. In contrast, corporate sustainability does not significantly affect financial performance. This shows that in the long time during the observation period, corporate sustainability activities did not work to improve banking finance in Indonesia. The stakeholders are more concerned about other factors that can increase banking company performance. This could also be because a banking company is more profit oriented.
