Download or read book Corporate Disclosure in the Banking Industry written by David Isiavwe Ph.D. and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate disclosure is critical to the functioning of an efficient capital market, and all banks in Nigeria are required to hit the mark. Expanding on some of the themes he explored in his first book, Cash Management and Bank Profitability Under Conditions of Uncertainty, David Isiavwe, Ph.D., examines the disclosures that Nigerian banks make via financial statements, regulatory filings, and in other documents. His findings are based on a detailed study that assigned disclosure items a score of 1 if they were reported and a score of 0 if they were not reported. More than two hundred disclosure items were examined. He concludes that the size of banks, bank profitability, presence of international subsidiaries, and the financial expertise of board members significantly affect the disclosures made. The bigger and more profitable a bank isand the more financial background board members havethe more information Nigerian banks typically disclose to stakeholders. As a result, banks in Nigeria should grow their balance sheets and profitability for enhanced disclosure, and the government should create an enabling environment. Whether youre an investor, board member at an international bank, bank regulator, lecturer or student, youll find this book on banking a compelling read.

Download or read book Corporate Governance in Institutions Offering Islamic Financial Services written by Wafik Grais and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews institutions offering Islamic financial services (IIFS) corporate governance challenges and suggests options to address them. It first points out the importance of corporate governance for IIFS, where it would require a distinct treatment from conventional corporate governance and highlights three cases of distress of IIFS. It then dwells on prevailing corporate governance arrangements addressing IIFS' needs to ensure the consistency of their operations with Islamic finance principles and the protection of the financial interests of a stakeholders' category, namely depositors holding unrestricted investment accounts. It raises the issues of independence, confidentiality, competence, consistency, and disclosure that may bear on pronouncements of consistency with Islamic finance principles. It also discusses the agency problem of depositors holding unrestricted investment accounts. The paper argues for a governance framework that combines internal and external arrangements and relies significantly on transparency and disclosure of market relevant information.
