THE IMPACT OF CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY ON BRAND IMAGE: A STUDY ON BANK CUSTOMERS

Öz

Consumer expectations of businesses have undergone significant changes throughout history. In this context, the objectives and methods companies pursue in conducting their commercial activities have also evolved over time. By developing strategies tailored to consumer demands, businesses aim to both strengthen their market position and respond to societal expectations. Consumers, particularly those in high-income groups who prefer investment-oriented banking services, expect financial institutions to demonstrate sensitivity to social issues and take an active role in these areas. Consumers' sensitivity to social issues has increased compared to previous periods, placing pressure on institutions to take a leading role in solving social problems. The study aimed to analyze the relationship between banks' efforts to shape their brand image and the costly CSR initiatives they undertake to address social issues. A survey was administered to 886 individuals, and the resulting data was analyzed using IBM SPSS 20 software. The analysis results revealed that there is a statistically significant and positive relationship between corporate social responsibility activities and brand image, as businesses act not only with economic goals but also with a sense of social responsibility. In this context, the development of sustainability and social responsibility strategies by financial institutions both increases consumer confidence and contributes to the strengthening of corporate reputation.
