This paper tries to inspect the association and relationship between corporate governance determinants and level of non-performing loan (NPL) of listed commercial banks in Bangladesh. Recently Banks are facing a problem of default loan. This default loan or NPL may reduce the loan giving capacity of the Banks and it may decrease the economic growth of a country. Moreover, there is less research to find out the implication of good governance on the level of NPL in banking sector of Bangladesh than that of developed countries. Here, data from thirty listed commercial banks for the year 2008-2017 (10 years) are taken to explore the rapport between the corporate governance variables and NPL. Random Effect GLS regression method is used to analyze the data. Findings told that commercial banks follow the code of corporate governance on a comply basis however their relationship with NPL is positively significant within the taken determinants of corporate governance. It is expected that, banks with good quality management may ensure the quality of loan and it will reduce the level of NPL.

Abstract: The Responsibilities of Shariah Banking in the application of Prudential Principles and Good Corporate Governance. A Bank’s functions as an intermediary institution is interesting in relation to the importance of responsibilities to customers in applying the principles of Good Corporate Governance (GCG). The application of the principle of prudence and good corporate governance in shariah banking is useful in minimizing risks that may arise from moral hazards and avoid transactions in money laundering. The responsibility of shariah banks in the distribution of Islamic finance is basically just a little different from its application in commercial banks, caused by differences between systems that are applied by conventional banks with a shariah system which directly impact on the rules used and structures of shariah banks.Keywords: Shariah banks, principle of prudence, good governance, principles of shariahAbstrak: Tanggung Jawab Bank Syariah dalam Penerapan Prinsip Kehati-hatian dan Good Corporate Governance. Fungsi bank sebagai lembaga intermediasi menarik dalam kaitannya dengan pentingnya tanggung jawab bagi pihak nasabah dengan menerapkan prinsip Good Corporate Governance (GCG). Penerapan prinsip kehati-hatian dan Good Corporate Governance dalam Pembiayaan syariah berguna untuk meminimalisasi risiko yang mungkin timbul dari moral hazard dan menghindari transaksi yang bersifat money laundering. Tanggung jawab bank syariah dalam penyaluran pembiayaan syariah pada dasarnya hanya sedikit berbeda dengan penerapannya pada bank umum, dikarenakan adanya perbedaan antara sistem yang diterapkan oleh bank konvensional dengan sistem syariah yang secara langsung berdampak kepada aturan yang dipakai dan struktur dari bank syariah.Kata Kunci: bank syariah, prinsip kehati-hatian, tata kelola yang baik, prinsip syariahDOI: 10.15408/ajis.v12i1.985

This study aims to provide further evidence on the effect of corporate governance on the performance of Ghanaian banks. Two performance measures were used in this study, namely: Return on Asset (ROA) and Cost-Income Ratio (CIR). Data for the analysis were sourced from 21 commercial banks from 2005 to 2015. Regression estimation techniques were employed for analysis purposes. The result revealed that large board size reduces banks’ performance. Furthermore, CEO duality and foreign ownership negatively affect the performance of banks. However, while the effect of CEO duality was significant on CIR, it was not significant in the case of ROA. On the contrary, the effect of foreign ownership was only significant on ROA.  Moreover, board independence has a significant positive effect on both CIR and ROA, while audit committee independence has no significant effect on CIR and ROA. The paper argues that for a good corporate governance practice, banks should institute a small board with more than half of the members being independent directors. Furthermore, the role of the board chair should be separated from that of the managing director/CEO. The study provides insight and further evidence to stakeholders and regulators to deal with the crisis in the Ghanaian banking sector.

In the economic system, the role of State-Owned Enterprises is as an implementer of public services, distribution of resources that control the lives of many people, as pioneers/pioneers in the business sector that are not yet desirable by the private sector and as a source of state revenue. This role can be realized if the State-Owned Enterprise in its objectives can implement the principles of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) well. But in reality, it is often difficult to face challenges faced by State-Owned Enterprises managers in implementing good governance. The intervention of State-Owned Enterprises business management with a political-bureaucratic approach that is no different from other government agencies. And at worst there are still a series of corruption cases carried out by the leadership of State-Owned Enterprises to seek personal gain. This is certainly a contradiction with State-Owned Enterprise's governance which is always published. Existing GCG implementation policies are deemed ineffective because they are not adhered to. This illustrates that business governance in ` State-Owned Enterprises itself has not been going well. Improvement in the application of good corporate governance (GCG) must be carried out immediately and the improvement of the GCG ecosystem of the State-Owned Enterprise itself must receive the attention of the government. Synergy is needed with the government's commitment to forcing State-Owned Enterprises to implement GCG in a transparent and accountable manner, with a high level of professionalism and effectiveness.

Purpose – The purpose of this article is to explain under what circumstances firm-level adoption of codes of good corporate governance will more likely be superficial rather than substantive in nature. The article contains lessons for any agency or country that attempts to implement deep and lasting changes in corporate governance via codes of good corporate governance. Design/methodology/approach – The article reviews the literature on compliance with codes of good corporate governance and develops a conceptual model to explain why some firms that have formally adopted a code of good governance decouple this policy from its actual use. Findings – Decoupling in response to the issuance of codes of good corporate governance will be more attractive to firms and also more sustainable under the following conditions: firms’ compliance costs are relatively high firms’ costs of outright and visible non-compliance are relatively high and outsiders’ compliance monitoring costs are relatively high. Originality/value – The article contributes to the debate on compliance and convergence and provides policymakers with a conceptual framework for assessing the likelihood of successful regulatory change in corporate governance.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore how governance mechanisms (internal and external) enhance the performance of the return on asset (ROA), return on equity (ROE), earning per share (EPS) and dividend payout ratios (DP) of the banks of Pakistan. The study incorporates not only the internal factors of governance (board size, out-ratio, annual general meeting, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, block holder stock ownership and financial transparency) but also the external factors (legal infrastructure and protection of minority shareholders, and the market for corporate control). Design/methodology/approach The sample size of the study consists of 30 banks (public, private and specialized) listed at the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSE) for the period 2008-2014. The panel data techniques (fixed or random effect model) have been used for the empirical analysis after verification by Hausman (1978) test. Findings The results revealed that not only do the internal mechanisms of governance enhance the performance of the banking sector of Pakistan but external governance also plays a substantial role in enriching the performance. The findings conclude that for a good governance structure, both internal and external mechanisms are equally important, to accelerate the performance of the banking sector. Research limitations/implications Internal and external mechanisms of corporate governance can also be checked by adding some more variables (ownership i.e. foreign, female and family as internal and auditor as external), but they are not added in this work due to data unavailability. Practical implications The study contributes to the literature and could be useful for the policy makers who need to force banks to mandate codes of governance through which they can create an efficient board structure and augment the performance. The investments from different forms of ownership can be accelerated if they follow the codes properly. Social implications The study facilitates the bankers in incorporating sound codes of corporate governance to enhance the performance of the banks. Originality/value This work is unique as no one has explored the impact of external mechanism of governance on the performance of the banking sector of Pakistan.

Islamic guidance is a positive influence on humanity in numerous and diverse ways. In addition to its influence on individuals, Islamic guidance for good corporate governance provides a valuable, practical and business-relevant moral compass. For example, when a business incorporates maqasid values into its conduct, a better experience or outcome can usually be expected. Islamic guidance for humanity helps individuals lead a better life. When individuals are part of an organisation, the environment in which they interact needs to be addressed as well. While individuals should strive to be positive and contribute to the improvement of humanity, creating a suitable climate makes the striving easier and more successful. Essentially, governance is the structure, mechanism, and culture that enables good things to happen. When there is good governance, the result can be a virtuous circle where good actions get reinforced and amplified.
