This study aims at exploring the intervening variables including social capital, environmental dynamism and environmental munificence, which may mediate or moderate the relationship between CSR and corporate financial performance (CFP). Evidence based on Taiwanese listed firms shows that social capital plays a mediating role on connecting CSR and CFP. The mechanism is that CSR first has a positive impact on the social capital and social capital subsequently produces a positive effect on CFP. In addition, as a moderator environmental dynamism strengthens the positive relationship between CSR and social capital. Furthermore, environmental dynamism weakens the positive relationship between social capital and CFP.
