This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This assessment is a review of the financial environment of Malaysia. Like many other Asian countries, Malaysia experienced financial distress in the late 1990s, but the country’s policy reforms have moved it to a successful economy. A ten-year financial plan (2001–10) by Bank Negara Malaysia restructured the financial sector. Banks were well capitalized, household debts were strengthened, and securities and insurances were developed. Malaysia thus became the global center for Islamic finance. The authorities look on to a developed Malaysia by 2020.

This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Technical Note focuses on banking system spillovers of Malaysia. The note examines the presence of foreign banks and the potential for problems in other jurisdictions to spillover to Malaysia and the overseas operations of Malaysian banks, which make their performance and solvency more exposed to economic and political developments abroad. A key facet of the current crisis is serious problems in advanced economy banks, suggesting a role for spillovers from their claims on Malaysia. Notwithstanding the Asian Financial Crisis, foreign claims of BIS-reporting banks on Malaysia have generally been on an increasing trend since the early 1990s.
Download or read book Market Structure and Performance in the Malaysian Banking Industry written by M. Nasser Katib and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper has tested the validity of the structure-conduct-performance (SCP) framework in the Malaysian banking market and also the competing efficient structure (ES) hypothesis using robust estimation approach. The empirical investigation uses four different measures of concentration to represent market structure and a market share variable to capture the effect of market power on bank performance. The results of the analysis conducted on a sample of 20 commercial banks over the period from 1989 to 1996 have allowed us to strongly reject the ES hypothesis. The empirical findings suggest that market concentration determines profitability in the Malaysian banking industry. This is consistent with most recent studies that have tested the competing hypotheses in their evaluation of bank performance (Evanoff and Fortier, 1988; Molyneux and Thornton, 1992; Lloyd-Williams et al., 1994; Molyneux and Forbes, 1995).

This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper summarizes the stress tests (ST) undertaken for the Malaysian banking system as part of the Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP). All banks were subject to solvency, liquidity and contagion tests in the macroeconomic stress testing set-up. The solvency tests assessed the resilience of the Malaysian banking system under three macroeconomic scenarios from 2012 to 2016. Single year bottom up (BU) sensitivity tests for Malaysian banks covered various single-factor credit and market risk shocks. A multi-factor BU sensitivity liquidity test was also carried out by participating banks and extended to not only key onshore banks but covered some Labuan entities and overseas subsidiaries. The findings suggest that the onshore banking system in Malaysia has substantial capital buffers to absorb credit losses on its credit risk exposures. Conventional banks can benefit from buffers provided by significant income as a first line of defense against credit losses. Some larger domestic banks benefit from income in terms of strong revenues from domestic operations as well as potential income from overseas operations.

Book excerpt: This Technical Note focuses on financial sector performance, vulnerabilities, and derivatives in Malaysia. The note highlights that banking sector has undergone consolidation while competition has increased following measures implemented under the Financial Sector Master Plan 2001–2010. Malaysian banks are presently well capitalized with comfortable Tier 1 capital ratios. Stronger financial positions and risk management capability have enabled domestic banking groups to pursue overseas expansions, mostly within the region. The importance to some banks of overseas assets and earnings is reaching levels which, based on international experience, warrant a review of internal controls.

Download or read book The Political Economy of Financial Development in Malaysia written by Lena Rethel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current inquiries into the political economy of financial policymaking in Malaysia tend to focus on the high-level drama of crisis politics or simply point to the limited impact of post-crisis financial reforms, given that politico-business relations have remained close. In so doing, pundits ignore a number of intriguing questions: what is the relationship between financial development and financialisation and how has it played out in the Malaysian context? And more generally: how can a country like Malaysia become significantly more financially developed, yet fail to emancipate the financial system from political control; a core element of the financial development discourse? To unravel the complexities of this puzzle, this book subjects the history and contemporary practices of financial policymaking in Malaysia to scrutiny. It argues that to understand financial development in Malaysia, its progress and reversals, it is important to conceptualise it as a political, rather than a merely technical process. In so doing, the book echoes a more profound concern in the political economy literature, namely the evolving relationship between states and markets, and the supposed retreat or reassertion of the state at a time of increasing (financial) globalisation. The book can generate further insights into the evolving role of the state with regard to broader processes of development and marketisation, as they relate specifically to finance.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few decades, the Malaysian banking industry has witnessed drastic changes in its operation due to innovation witnessed in the financial system mainly dominated by securitization activities. Prior to the 2007 financial crisis, securitization has been highly promoted and recommended as an important tool for risk management. However, this financial innovation attracted the attention of the researchers following the events leading to the 2007 credit crisis due to the key roles played by securitization activities. The purpose of this study is to empirically investigate securitization activities of the banks in Malaysia based on the following motives identified in the literature: (1) capital arbitrage motive (2) risk transfer motive and (3) liquidity motive. In addition to that, this study also seeks investigate the effect of this financial innovation on the stability of the banks and banks' lending. Secondary data spanning from 2004-2011 for 39 Malaysian banks whose data is available on bankscope database is employed in this study. In order to realize the objectives of this study, the Arrelano and Bover (1995) system GMM estimator was employed. Considering the small number of panel in our study, and potential endogeneity, system GMM is deemed suitable for this study. The finding of this study suggested that liquidity and credit risk management constitute the main motive for securitization activities among the Malaysian banks. In addition, in relation to the effect of securitization activities on banks stability, it is revealed that securitization activities pose a potential threat to banks instability. Finally, the study found a significant contribution of securitization to banks' lending ability.
