Corporate reputation and brand value have chain-mediating effects in the influence mechanism of CSR on enterprise performance.

Practically, it can encourage Chinese enterprises to actively undertake CSR, strengthen reputation management, enhance brand value, and finally promote the sustainable development of enterprises. A-share listed companies (listed companies in the Chinese A stock market) in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges from 2008 to 2020 in \u201cChina\u2019s 500 Most Valuable Brands List\u201d by World Brand Lab are studied in this paper. The results of the empirical study based on relevant data show a significant positive relationship between CSR and enterprise performance.
