The purpose of this study is to realize the importance of CSR(Corporate SocialResponsibility) on foreign direct investment. This paper examines mainly the OECDGuidelines for multinational enterprises which are recommendations addressed bygovernments. This paper also provides a case study of two decisions rendered by theimplementation procedures of the OECD Guidelines. The OECD Guidelines are the leading international code of conduct for CSR. Manymultinational enterprises are using these guidelines in various fields. However the OECD Guidelines do not offer a specific standard for conditions of parties. It is therefore possible to interpret the guidelines in an inaccurate and misleading manner. Therefore the OECD Secretariat should rapidly provide specific criterion for problems thatmay occur. If multinational enterprises ignore the guidelines, they could be subject to direct or indirectlosses, and would have to deal with a negative corporate image. In the long run, they wouldhave to spend a lot of money to improve its view in public opinion. Therefore, governments need to actively promote the OECD Guidelines in order to set aglobal standard for CSR in multinational enterprises.
