  • Using CSR As a Key Element for Achieving Competitive Advantage
    025-0181 Moral has no seasons: Using CSR as a key element for achieving competitive advantage. Marina Mattera Department of Economics and International Relations Universidad Europea de Madrid, C/Tajo, s/n. 28670-Villaviciosa de Odon-(Madrid) Spain POMS 23rd Annual Conference Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. April 20 to April 23, 2011 Abstract: Firms' new challenges in the 21st century involve innovation and society's request for a more responsible business model. Based on bounded rationality conditions and the important role of externalities, it is analyzed through a case study whether corporate social responsibility strategies are essential for companies to achieve sustainable competitive advantages. Key words: Sustainable Development; Sustainable Management; Corporate Social Responsability; Open Innovation models. 1. Introduction Efforts towards generating sustainable growth and steady benefits have owned its accurate planning to the competitive advantage owned by the company. In several studies, it has been demonstrated that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) can improve a firm’s performance by enhancing the prestige and perception from consumers’ perspective (competitive advantage). However, it has also been denoted that solid inter-agents relationships are enhanced when they have consolidated CSR actions between them. New models for conducting business emerge, and together with them new difficulties. Known as “open innovation” (OI) models, the aforementioned collaborations between organizations have also gained a purely international character. This study aims to analyze those new interactions and relationships between firms, which of them succeed and the role corporate social responsibility plays in such a context. Taking into account the complex level of the existing interrelationship between agents and countries where they operate, it becomes difficult to accurately depict the company’s culture, its values, and beliefs; as shown in Figure 1.

  • Electronic Materials (Overweight)
    December 1, 2011 Industry Report Electronic Materials (Overweight) Daewoo Securities Co., Ltd. More attractive than downstream industries Will Cho +822-768-4306 Initiate coverage with Overweight rating [email protected] We initiate our coverage on the electronic materials sector, presenting an Overweight rating. The industry is noteworthy, as: 1) electronic materials makersÊ earnings are relatively insensitive to IT market conditions since their products are necessary for downstream manufacturing, and 2) companies in the sector can actively adapt to new IT paradigms thanks to their strong technology scalability. As such, when the IT market is in a down cycle, electronic materials shares tend to outperform semiconductor, LCD, and IT parts shares. Korean electronic materials companies to enter a boom Korean electronic device makers have become increasingly competitive in key IT segments (e.g., semiconductors, LCDs, and rechargeable batteries). And the growing market dominance of Korean electronic device makers should play a critical role in boosting the competitiveness of domestic electronic materials suppliers on the back of localization and vertical integration. In addition, the Korean government seems committed to supporting the local production of materials going forward in an effort to adjust the trade imbalance with Japan. Furthermore, F/X rates look favorable. Rises in the US$/W rate have positive impacts on KoreaÊs export-driven IT industry, and yen appreciation should boost the price competitiveness of Korean electronic materials companies. Top picks: Duksan Hi-Metal, Cheil Industries, and OCI Materials Among electronic materials segments, AMOLED materials appears to be the most attractive in light of the strong growth potential of the related downstream industry, high barriers to entry, and further room for market share expansion.
