The company can maximize the shareholders' equities, the prosperity of the owners of interests, the reputation of the company, and the long-term viability of the company by undertaking the CSR. The controversy whether the company should be engaged in CSR or not is still going on. According to the shareholder theory, the supporters of CSR (Donaldson & Preston, 1995; Jones, 1995) say that CSR is a mechanism to achieve a better financial condition and to maximize the property of the shareholders (A.

This research investigates in three folds, the relationships among corporate governance, CSR, and firm performance, then the relationship between intellectual property and firm performance. This research shows that the independent board of commissioners is related to CSR. CSR and the institutional ownership are also related to firm performance.
