The Caux Round Table is an international organization of senior business executives aiming to promote ethical business practices.

Frits Philips was alarmed to hear from reliable sources that the Japanese were dumping their products on the

Corporate Social Responsibility practices to be used. The CRT’s Principles for Business were published in 1994, incorporating Western and Japanese concepts (such as 'kyosei', the working together for the common good). It was presented at the 1994 UN Social Summit in Copenhagen.[3]

The CRT primarily engages in an annual meeting and the publication of guides for various types of organizations. Every three years, the annual meeting is held at Caux, Switzerland, where the original initiative took place in 1986.[4][5]

Young also partnered with scholars at the

International Islamic University of Malaysia to formulate interpretations of guidance from the Qur'an.[6]
