Book Deregulation and Efficiency of Indian Banks

Download or read book Deregulation and Efficiency of Indian Banks written by Sunil Kumar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-23 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​ The goal of this book is to assess the efficacy of India’s financial deregulation programme by analyzing the developments in cost efficiency and total factor productivity growth across different ownership types and size classes in the banking sector over the post-deregulation years. The work also gauges the impact of inclusion or exclusion of a proxy for non-traditional activities on the cost efficiency estimates for Indian banks, and ranking of distinct ownership groups. It also investigates the hitherto neglected aspect of the nature of returns-to-scale in the Indian banking industry. In addition, the work explores the key bank-specific factors that explain the inter-bank variations in efficiency and productivity growth. Overall, the empirical results of this work allow us to ascertain whether the gradualist approach to reforming the banking system in a developing economy like India has yielded the most significant policy goal of achieving efficiency and productivity gains. The authors believe that the findings of this book could give useful policy directions and suggestions to other developing economies that have embarked on a deregulation path or are contemplating doing so.

Book Banking Sector Reforms in India and Performance Evaluation of Commercial Banks

Download or read book Banking Sector Reforms in India and Performance Evaluation of Commercial Banks written by Debaprosanna Nandy and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2010-07-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee on Financial System (CFS), popularly known as Narasimham Committee, was set up in 1991 to make recommendations for bringing about the necessary reforms in the financial sector. Narasimham Committee appraised and acknowledged the success and progress of Indian banks since the major banks were nationalized on 19 July 1969. Unfortunately, the developments were witnessed only in the field of expansion and spread of bank branches, generation of huge employment and mobilization of savings rather than also in improvement in efficiency. Besides, corruption, fraud, misutilization in public money, outdated technology, and politicization in policy making were found to be major drawbacks in the real progress of the banks. As the banking sector plays an important and crucial role in the economy of a country for its stabilization and balanced growth, major reforms were urgently needed, after 22 years of nationalization, to revive Indian banks. This was not only in the field of profitability, but also in the overall efficiency, viz., better management of non-performing assets (NPAs), satisfying capital requirements, increased cost effectiveness and control, enhanced customer service, improved technology, establishing competitive interest rate, effective man-power planning, introduction of asset-liability management, better productivity, launching new products, and becoming more competent to face the upcoming challenges and competition from foreign as well as private sector banks in the era of globalization and liberalization. The objectives of the study are to examine the need and relevance of reforms in Indian banks, to assess the efficiency and profitability of Indian banks during reforms from different perspectives, to discuss various issues of NPA management in the light of reforms, to measure the performance of the banks of West Bengal during the reforms, to analyse the role of information technology and its relevancy in Indian banks in the era of reforms, and to impart necessary suggestions for the improvement of the efficiency and profitability of Indian banks.

Book The Performance of Indian Banks During Financial Liberalization

Download or read book The Performance of Indian Banks During Financial Liberalization written by Ms.Petya Koeva Brooks and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides new empirical evidence on the impact of financial liberalization on the performance of Indian commercial banks. The analysis focuses on examining the behavior and determinants of bank intermediation costs and profitability during the liberalization period. The empirical results suggest that ownership type has a significant effect on some performance indicators and that the observed increase in competition during financial liberalization has been associated with lower intermediation costs and profitability of the Indian banks.

Book Financial Sector Reforms and Bank Efficiency in Developing Countries

Download or read book Financial Sector Reforms and Bank Efficiency in Developing Countries written by Paroma Sanyal and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991, decades of government stranglehold on the economy gave way to liberalization and reforms in India. Financial sector reforms played a major part in this push towards a more market oriented economy. Based on the recommendations of the first Narasimham Committee, the Reserve Bank of India sought to create a more efficient and reliable banking system by implementing a three pronged strategy that involved (a) deregulation (b) competition and (c) reliability. The primary focus of this paper therefore is to study the extent to which the quot;three pillarsquot; that support the financial reforms have affected bank performance. Specifically, we address two questions: have banks become more efficient and productive after the reforms, and which strategies have had the greatest impact? We find evidence that the liberalization process has had a significant impact on some bank performance measures. Preliminary results suggest: (a) the increase in competition after deregulation has had a positive impact on most measures of performance and productivity, (b) public sector banks have gained as much as private banks though there is no difference between the two sectors if we include the dominant State Banks of India, (c) improved private sector profitability has taken the form of new banks expanding output as opposed to established banks reducing costs, and (d) non performing loans have a consistently significant and negative impact on profitability.

Book Banking System in India

Download or read book Banking System in India written by S. M. Jawed Akhtar and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to economic reforms initiated in early 1990s, the banking sector in India suffered from lack of competition, low capital base, inefficiency, and high intermediation costs. The banking industry - dominated by the public sector - was subject to a high degree of financial repression, characterized by administered interest rates and allocated credit. Reforms in India's commercial banking sector had two distinct phases. The first phase of reforms focused mainly on enabling and strengthening measures. The second phase of reforms placed greater emphasis on structural measures and improvement in standards of disclosure and levels of transparency in order to align India's standards with international best practices. Reforms have brought about considerable improvements, as reflected in various parameters relating to capital adequacy, asset quality, profitability, and operational efficiency. Although commercial banks still face the problem of overhang of non-performing assets, high spread, and low profitability in comparison with banks in other emerging market economies, India's reforms - which are examined in this book - have been successful in enhancing the performance of commercial banks in terms of both stability and efficiency parameters.

Book Indian Banking in the Globalised World

Download or read book Indian Banking in the Globalised World written by R. K. Uppal and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK Banking sector reforms in India are aimed at induction of best international practices and technological changes for competing globally. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has time and again emphasised transparency, diversification of ownership and strong corporate governance to mitigate the prospects of systemic risks in the banking sector. Banking sector reforms have supported the transition of the Indian economy to a higher growth path, while significantly improving the stability of the financial system. In comparison with the pre-reform period, the Indian banking system today is more stable and efficient. However, the gains of the past decade need to be consolidated, so that these could be translated to drive the institutions, markets and practices into a mature financial system that can meet the challenges of globalisation. The banking system would, therefore, not only need to be stable, but also supportive of still higher levels of planned investments by channelling financial resources more efficiently from surplus to deficit sectors. Competitive pressures as well as prudential regulatory requirements have made banks risk-averse as reflected in their tendency to investment in relatively risk-free gilt instruments. The behaviour and strategies of banking business need changes in favour of risk-taking even while performing core activities. Also, there is a need to ensure long-term finance to support development and growth in the economy, even as restructuring takes place through mergers and universal banking. The present book addresses issues like Basel ? II Accord guidelines, second generation banking sector reforms, cost-benefit and productivity analysis of Indian banks, danger zone banks, privatisation and comparative efficiency of Indian banks and the recent reform measures. Vital statistics regarding the Indian banking sector and the recent Annual Policy Statement, 2008-09 of the RBI has also been discussed. About the author Dr. R.K. Uppal did his M.A. in economics from Punjabi University, Patiala in 1986. Thereafter, he obtained M.Phil. degree from MDU, Rohtak in 1987 and Ph.D. degree from Punjabi University, Patiala in 2003.

Book Banking Reforms  Risk Governance and Performance

Download or read book Banking Reforms Risk Governance and Performance written by Pankaj Gupta and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evidence that risk governance predicts market value of banks is very limited in the Indian context. Also, the bank - firm relationship is in news in recent. We present evidence that banking reforms activities made the large banks more profitable as compared to small banks. In this study of the banking reforms, we show that large banks who has the high amount of diversion of cash to related parties earn positive returns, relative to mid-sized banks. Our results confirm that this diversion of resources to related parties promotes the loans to the firms which are involved in the diversion of resources and default in future and this way hitting the public investors both ways. The bank-firm relationship is a closed structure which we have tried to explain in this study. A battery of regression tests show that better risk governance by banks mediates the negative effect of related party transactions on value and the sensitivity of bank profitability differs between industries. Our main research question is to study and analyze the governance reforms effect on risk taking abilities of banks, and, the expropriating behavior of firms through its relationship with banks. Primarily, banks in close relationship with board members of group affiliated firms are more involve in expropriating behavior through investment in low-yield projects and have the high amount of cash diverted to its related parties. As part of consequence, such firms expropriates investors which finally, turns up into the writing off loans to such project. This effect in aggregate has value effect on banks as well as firms. To measure the propensity of banks to misbehave an index called, “Banks misbehavior risk index (BMRI)” is developed. We detect a list of proxies through network structure to differentiate the expropriating behavior of group affiliated firms. We first conduct an event study of the key banking reform events for risk management by the banks, and investigate whether market views these reforms as limiting the possible misbehavior in near future. An event study is conducted to analyze the returns effect of banks on firms with the close association. Next, we study the effect of governance reform on the expropriating behavior of banks and firms in association with banks.

Book Determinants of Commercial Bank Interest Margins and Profitability

Download or read book Determinants of Commercial Bank Interest Margins and Profitability written by Asl? Demirgüç-Kunt and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1998 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: March 1998 Differences in interest margins reflect differences in bank characteristics, macroeconomic conditions, existing financial structure and taxation, regulation, and other institutional factors. Using bank data for 80 countries for 1988-95, Demirgüç-Kunt and Huizinga show that differences in interest margins and bank profitability reflect various determinants: * Bank characteristics. * Macroeconomic conditions. * Explicit and implicit bank taxes. * Regulation of deposit insurance. * General financial structure. * Several underlying legal and institutional indicators. Controlling for differences in bank activity, leverage, and the macroeconomic environment, they find (among other things) that: * Banks in countries with a more competitive banking sector-where banking assets constitute a larger share of GDP-have smaller margins and are less profitable. The bank concentration ratio also affects bank profitability; larger banks tend to have higher margins. * Well-capitalized banks have higher net interest margins and are more profitable. This is consistent with the fact that banks with higher capital ratios have a lower cost of funding because of lower prospective bankruptcy costs. * Differences in a bank's activity mix affect spread and profitability. Banks with relatively high noninterest-earning assets are less profitable. Also, banks that rely largely on deposits for their funding are less profitable, as deposits require more branching and other expenses. Similarly, variations in overhead and other operating costs are reflected in variations in bank interest margins, as banks pass their operating costs (including the corporate tax burden) on to their depositors and lenders. * In developing countries foreign banks have greater margins and profits than domestic banks. In industrial countries, the opposite is true. * Macroeconomic factors also explain variation in interest margins. Inflation is associated with higher realized interest margins and greater profitability. Inflation brings higher costs-more transactions and generally more extensive branch networks-and also more income from bank float. Bank income increases more with inflation than bank costs do. * There is evidence that the corporate tax burden is fully passed on to bank customers in poor and rich countries alike. * Legal and institutional differences matter. Indicators of better contract enforcement, efficiency in the legal system, and lack of corruption are associated with lower realized interest margins and lower profitability. This paper-a product of the Development Research Group-is part of a larger effort in the group to study bank efficiency.
