Tax Returns. This study studies the relationship between tax incentives, financial performance and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). In order to encourage the development of corporate CSR, the Chinese government has carried out a series of tax reforms. The purpose of tax reform is to stimulate the development of CSR by reducing the tax burden on enterprises.

The results show that the direct tax incentive has a significant direct incentive effect on the CSR of the whole sample of firms, and the mediating effect of financial performance is significant. It is found that the mediating effect of financial performance is particularly significant in state-owned enterprises and non-manufacturing enterprises.
