Abstract :
Corporate Social Responsibility is an issue that is interesting to discuss. We know
that it?s important for the company to fulfill their social responsibility to
stakeholder. This responsibility can be for their environment, society, labor, or
the other stakeholder. When they can fulfill this responsibility, as the stakeholder

program, the company needs an additional cost that can decrease their profit.
Based on this situation, this research will analyse the effect of CSR disclosure to
the company?s financial performance.

financial performance of manufacture companies listed in BEI. This research use
