In addition, it investigates how one of the corporate governance mechanisms (Board of directors’ characteristics) can moderate this relation. The study uses all banks in Egypt (listed and non-listed in EGX) for years (2017-2020). To test the research hypotheses, descriptive analysis, Pearson’s correlation and multiple regression analysis are used. Results show that there is no effect of CSR on bank performance. Moreover, the moderating board of director characteristics (size & meeting) have no effect on the relation between CSR and bank performance. However, BOD gender is one of the board of directors’ characteristics that affect negatively on the relation between CSR and bank performance.enuniversity of modern sciences and artsMSA universityOctober university for modern sciences and artsجامعة أكتوبر للعلوم الحديثة و الأدابCorporate Social Responsibility, Corporate Governance,Board of directors,Bank performanceOther
