Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate governance has become one of the most popular phenomena that draw the worldwide attention recently as this issue has significant influences on the performance of almost every business. Regarding banking industry, the adoption of good corporate governance is much more vital, because a smooth and well-performed banking system lies at the heart of economic development in each country. This paper is to provide a deep look into the relationship between corporate governance and performance of banking sector, especially in two countries, namely Vietnam and Malaysia by presenting both theoretical framework and empirical study. The part of theoretical framework provides readers with profound knowledge about corporate governance in general as well as bank corporate governance in particular with two famous frameworks. In the empirical study section, a number of commercial banks in Vietnam and Malaysia have been randomly chosen as a sample to run econometric models which examine the effect of several variables of corporate governance on the bank performance. The overall result of study shows that board size, audit committee size, and capital adequacy ratio has a significant effect on both Vietnamese and Malaysian commercial banks and there exists the difference in the influence of some corporate governance proxies on the bank performance between Vietnam and Malaysia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper aims to analyze the relation between business models, quality of governance and performance achieved by banks during the period 2005-2008. Coherently with a substantial literature which has spent its effort on researching for the relation between quality of governance and banks' performance, we propose a new index of governance's quality, which can be considered as an additional explanatory variable, to be used together with other characteristics of business models, in order to determine about the different performance achieved by banks during the 2007-2008 crisis.

Download or read book Corporate Governance and Bank Performance written by Allen N. Berger and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors jointly analyze the static, selection, and dynamic effects of domestic, foreign, and state ownership on bank performance. They argue that it is important to include indicators of all the relevant governance effects in the same model. "Nonrobustness" checks (which purposely exclude some indicators) support this argument. Using data from Argentina in the 1990s, their strongest and most robust results concern state ownership. State-owned banks have poor long-term performance (static effect), those undergoing privatization had particularly poor performance beforehand (selection effect), and these banks dramatically improved following privatization (dynamic effect. However, much of the measured improvement is likely due to placing nonperforming loans into residual entities, leaving "good" privatized banks.

Download or read book Corporate Governance in the Banking Sector written by Bruno Buchetti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives an overview of the most important theories on Corporate Governance, investigating the myth and the reality of it. It argues that within the banking sector exist two new agency costs (i.e., bank depositors and shareholders vs. directors and bank depositors vs. shareholders and directors). These agency problems are difficult to reduce for two reasons. First, banks are complex and opaque. Second, government implicit guarantees and the deposit insurance systems reduce the monitoring of depositors. This book also takes a deep dive into research on CG in the banking sector via a unique and innovative literature review covering the time period between 2000-2020. It finds that some specific CG characteristics affect banks: risk appetite, performance, accounting quality, compensation and corporate social responsibility disclosure. Furthermore, this publication contends that institutional investors are changing CG for the better, describing how major financial markets factors such as rating agencies and sell-side financial analysts make CG visible. Additionally, it investigates how managerial biases and irrational investors can affect CG negatively, leading to company distress. All-in-all, this book makes a threefold contribution: for regulators, it offers suggestions on how to improve banks’ supervision; for researchers, it suggests new research topics; and for practitioners, it connects CG theory with real cases of CG failure.

This book was released on 2021-02-12 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New trends are emerging regarding earnings management and corporate governance showing similarities and striking differences in the practices of different countries and economies. These new trends currently shape the field of modern corporate governance with crucial issues being looked at in governance law and practices, accounting systems, earnings quality and management, stakeholder involvement, and more. In order to advance these new avenues in corporate governance, research looks at accounting policies firms use in different opportunistic circumstances in order to manage earnings, the corporate governance practices in different countries, firm performance, and other dimensions of companies. The understanding of these topics is beneficial in understanding the current state of different types of firms and their practices in modern times. Comparative Research on Earnings Management, Corporate Governance, and Economic Value is focused on the investigation of key challenges and perspectives of corporate governance and earnings management and outlines possible scenarios of its development. The chapters explore this new avenue of research and cover theoretical, empirical, and experimental studies related to different themes in the global context of earnings management and corporate governance. This book is ideal for economists, businesses, managers, accountants, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students who are interested in the current issues and advancements in corporate governance and earnings management.

Download or read book The Impact of State Ownership on Performance Differences in Privately Owned Versus State Owned Banks written by Marcia Millon Cornett and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper employs cash flow and accounting based measures to examine performance differences between privately-owned and state-owned banks in sixteen Far East countries from 1989 through 2004, a period including the 1997 Asian financial crisis. We find that state-owned banks operated less profitably, held less core capital, and had greater credit risk than privately-owned banks prior to 2001, and the performance differences are more significant in those countries with greater government involvement and political corruption in the banking system. In addition, from 1997 to 2000, the 4-year period after the beginning of the Asian financial crisis, the deterioration in the cash flow returns, core capital and credit quality of state-owned banks was significantly greater than that of privately-owned banks, and the contrast between the two types of banks during this period is especially sharp for the countries that were hardest hit by the Asian crisis. We also find that state-owned banks finance the government to a greater degree than do privately-owned banks in countries where the government is involved heavily in the banking system. However, state-owned banks closed the gap with privately-owned banks on cash flow returns, core capital, and nonperforming loans in the post-crisis period of 2001-2004. Taken together, our findings can best be explained by Shleifer and Vishny's (1997) corporate governance theory on government ownership of banks and Kane's (2000) life-cycle model of a regulation-induced banking crisis.

Download or read book Bank Risk Governance and Regulation written by Elena Beccalli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents research from leading researchers in the European banking field to explore three key areas of banking. In Bank Risk, Governance and Regulation, the authors conduct micro- and macro- level analysis of banking risks and their determinants. They explore areas such as credit quality, bank provisioning, deposit guarantee schemes, corporate governance and cost of capital. The book then goes on to analyse different aspects of the relationship between bank risk management, governance and performance. Lastly the book explores the regulation of systemic risks posed by banks, and examines the effects of novel regulatory sets on bank conduct and profitability. The research in this book focuses on aspects of the European banking system; however it also offers wider insight into the global banking space and offers comparisons to international banking systems. The study provides in-depth insight into many areas of bank risk, governance and regulation, before finally addressing the question: which banking strategies are actually feasible?

Download or read book Comparative International Characteristics of Banking written by James R. Barth and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper compares key characteristics of banking systems across countries. A basic premise underlying our review is that the increasing globalization of banking and finance mandate a broad, cross-country perspective on banking issues. Indeed, cross-country comparisons can add insight into basic issues in banking that may not emerge, or are only partially discernible, from single-country analyses. With this in mind, we review representative research dealing with four fundamental aspects of international banking: the structure of banking, with emphasis on the connection between the development of the banking system and economic growth; banking industry performance; banking regulation, supervision, and corporate governance; and banking crises. We augment each of these discussions with an examination of the cross-country “landscape” of key dimensions of banking, using data for over 50 countries.

Download or read book The Corporate Governance of Banks written by Ross Levine and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2004 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Levine examines the corporate governance of banks. When banks efficiently mobilize and allocate funds, this lowers the cost of capital to firms, boosts capital formation, and stimulates productivity growth. So, weak governance of banks reverberates throughout the economy with negative ramifications for economic development. After reviewing the major governance concepts for corporations in general, the author discusses two special attributes of banks that make them special in practice: greater opaqueness than other industries and greater government regulation. These attributes weaken many traditional governance mechanisms. Next, he reviews emerging evidence on which government policies enhance the governance of banks and draws tentative policy lessons. In sum, existing work suggests that it is important to strengthen the ability and incentives of private investors to exert governance over banks rather than to rely excessively on government regulators. These conclusions, however, are particularly tentative because more research is needed on how legal, regulatory, and supervisory policies influence the governance of banks. This papera product of the Global Corporate Governance Forum, Corporate Governance Departmentis part of a larger effort in the department to improve the understanding of corporate governance reform in developing countries"-- World Bank web site.
