Download or read book An lisis de las pol ticas de gesti n de la responsabilidad social corporativa en el sector bancario espa ol written by Andrea Pérez Ruiz and published by Ed. Universidad de Cantabria. This book was released on 2012 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En esta obra se analizan las políticas de gestión de la responsabilidad social corporativa (RSC) que vienen desarrollando en los últimos años las entidades bancarias del sector español. Al mismo tiempo, se realiza un análisis estratégico de la eficacia de estas políticas a través del estudio de sus repercusiones en la imagen de los clientes de este tipo de servicios. Para ello se desarrollan dos estudios empíricos con entidades bancarias y consumidores para conocer tanto el rol de la RSC en la identidad corporativa de estas empresas como en su imagen pública y en las expectativas de los usuarios de servicios bancarios. Los resultados indican que es posible anticipar una cierta jerarquía en los intereses de los clientes en materia de RSC y que, como consecuencia de la misma, existen políticas de gestión más adecuadas para el éxito empresarial que otras. Dichas estrategias se corresponden fundamentalmente con las seguidas por los grandes bancos nacionales que enfocan sus acciones de RSC específicamente a clientes y empleados, dos grupos de interés estratégicos para el éxito y la supervivencia corporativa. Las cajas de ahorros, por su parte, están canalizando sus acciones a través de la Obra Social, dirigida a cubrir un amplio espectro de problemáticas sociales. La dispersión de estas medidas, que no se enfocan a grupos de interés primarios, tiene repercusiones significativas en la imagen pública de estas entidades.

Download or read book Responsabilidad social y marketing en el sector bancario written by Andrea Pérez Ruiz and published by Ediciones Pirámide. This book was released on 2013-06-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este libro se aborda el estudio de la responsabilidad social corporativa (RSC) desde el punto de vista del marketing y del comportamiento del consumidor, el principal grupo de interés de una empresa en la actualidad. En este sentido, cabe decir que mucho se ha hablado del cambio en las expectativas de la sociedad sobre el papel que las empresas han de desempeñar en la salida de la presente crisis financiera. En este caso, el foco de atención se ha puesto especialmente en el sector bancario. En España estamos asistiendo a un proceso de fusiones y adquisiciones de las cajas de ahorros, derivado directamente de sus dificultades para capitalizarse y, por consiguiente, para sobrevivir en el mercado. Este hecho ha tenido repercusiones directas en el conjunto de la economía nacional, especialmente si se tiene en cuenta cómo los problemas de solvencia de diversas entidades se han trasladado a los órganos de gobierno del país. No obstante, la relevancia que adquiere hoy en día la RSC en el sector bancario no se ha plasmado aún en publicaciones sobre la materia, lo que dificulta la posibilidad de generar ideas atractivas y factibles para la contribución de este concepto a la recuperación del sistema crediticio de España. Uno de los principales objetivos de esta obra es cubrir el vacío que existe en la literatura tanto de carácter teórico como práctico, a través de una revisión de los conceptos teóricos y de la presentación de casos para el análisis de la práctica de la RSC en el ámbito bancario español.
