Abstract

Currently, corporate social responsibility is no longer a new concept to the Vietnamese banking community. However, social responsibility activities at the majority of banks are only understood as charitable contributions, community sharing or voluntary social work of the bank. The article clarifies the role of Vietnamese banks in implementing social responsibility and suggests a number of suggestions for enhancing the social responsibility of Vietnamese banks in the current deep integration context.
