%0 Journal Article %T A Multi-Dimensional Analysis of Corporate Social Responsibility: The Liquidity Risk Factor %A Homayoon Shalchian %A Bouchra M¡¯Zali %A Hager Tebini %J Journal of Financial Risk Management %P 241-253 %@ 2167-9541 %D 2018 %I Scientific Research Publishing %R 10.4236/jfrm.2018.73016 %X This study is an extension to Shalchian et al. (2015) and investigates the effect of the ¡°liquidity¡± risk factor on the performance of socially responsible investments in different industries and based on different dimensions of corporate social responsibility. Using Pastor and Stambault¡¯s liquidity risk factor, we find that in the mining industry and based on the dimensions of ¡°environment¡±, ¡°employees¡¯ relations¡± and ¡°community involvement¡±, socially responsible investments are relatively less exposed to the liquidity risk factor. Our results also suggest that compared to conventional investments in the manufacturing and service industries, socially responsible investment¡¯s performance is more sensitive to the liquidity risk factor. %K Corporate Social Responsibility %K Liquidity Risk Factor %K Financial Performance %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=87440
