Abstract
This study investigates the impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on innovation capability and organizational performance in China’s rural commercial banks. Utilizing a robust evaluation index system, the research quantitatively assesses CSR and its dimensions: economic, legal, moral, and charitable responsibilities. Findings indicate that CSR positively influences organizational performance and innovation capability. Moreover, innovation capability significantly enhances organizational performance and partially mediates the relationship between CSR and organizational performance. The research also highlights the moderating role of an organizational innovation atmosphere, where colleague support, supervisor support, and organizational support strengthen the relationship between innovation capability and organizational performance. These insights underscore the critical role of CSR in driving innovation and organizational success in the rural banking sector. Further research is recommended to explore additional mediating mechanisms and broaden the sample scope for more comprehensive results.
