Summary/Abstract: Corporate social responsibility is a new concept in Eastern Europe and particularly in Albania. Albania came out of the communist regime without any kind of heritage or experience in the field of conception and later in that of applying social policies. But after the ’90-s, the opening of Albania to free trade brought dramatic changes. These changes had their essential influences and on the field of social policies. The paper will make a presentation of the actual level of corporate social responsibility undertaken by each bank operating in Albania. The authors have built some graphs according to the number of initiatives in achieving each of the targets for each Albanian bank by analyzing and addressing the following in more detail each bank. The paper will be closed with some conclusions and recommendations.
