By doing so, what it gets from the community would be equally reciprocated. Banking Industry has to revise its methods used to practice CSR in order to compete well with other competitors for its profitability. Banking Industry has to work harder to satisfy its customers through enhancing the internal business processes while being guided by investment decisions put.
