 Corporate Governance is concerned with holding the balance between
economic and social goals and between individual and communal goals. The
corporate governance framework is there to encourage the efficient use of
resources and equally to require accountability for the stewardship of those
resources. The aim is to align as nearly as possible the interests of individuals,
corporations and society
 Corporate social responsibility is concerned with treating the stakeholders of
the firm ethically or in a socially responsible manner. Stakeholders exist both

6.  There is no universally accepted definition of the word “CSR”, the meaning and
definition of CSR depends upon on mainly two factors; Firstly, context in which it
is used and secondly, stakeholder. The difficulties in defining precisely CSR are in
part reflective of the way in which this topic has developed and the context of its
use. For some, it has grown out of corporate philanthropy with a clear emphasis
on social improvements or strategic investment keeping in view long term goals.
For others, CSR has a much broader definition and is closely related to the
sustainable development and environment issues

12. CONCLUSION
 The relationship between CG & CSR are best interpreted by abandoning the
standard view of the firm as a shareholder value maximizer and embracing the
view of a firm as a stake holder maximizer.
 Social and ethically responsible firms are often viewed as the most respected and
profitable firms.
 CG & CSR are a strong compliments to each other.
 The positive relation between CG & CSR on one hand and the market value of the
firm on the other hand suggest that market is somehow able to detect the
corporations which are beyond the traditional bottom line and towards an
extended bottom line.
