This article aims at analyzing how controlling shareholders’ representatives on boards affect
corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies (disclosing CSR matters) in Spain, a context
characterized by high ownership concentration, one-tier boards, little board independence, weak
legal protection for investors, and the presence of large shareholders, especially institutional
shareholders. Furthermore, among controlling shareholders’ representatives, we can distinguish
between those appointed by insurance companies and banks and those appointed by mutual funds,
investment funds, and pension funds. The effect of these categories of directors on CSR strategies
is, therefore, also analyzed. Our findings suggest that controlling shareholders’ representatives
have a positive effect on CSR strategies, as do directors appointed by investment funds, pension
funds, and mutual funds, while directors appointed by banks and insurance companies have no
impact on CSR strategies. This analysis offers new insights into the role played by certain types
of directors on CSR strategies. [-]
