The Empirical Analysis

The main aim of this study was to empirically assess the main microeconomic factors that affect a bank's performance. The objectives were to ascertain if there is a relationship between the performance variables with the microeconomic variables, determine those that are significant and their impact on the performance of banks in Zimbabwe. An econometric model was built from balanced panel data and the Arellano-Bond estimation procedure was employed. The empirical analysis was carried out on a sample of 17 banks that were operational in the years 2010 to 2017 in Zimbabwe. Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE) and Net Interest Margin (NIM) were used as the performance indicators in the analysis. The results indicate the main microeconomic factors to be those attributed to growth, credit risk, capitalisation, managerial efficiency, liquidity and diversification in the Zimbabwean financial institutions. Performance in these institutions is generally good as measured by positive persistent profits, that is, ROA, ROE and NIM. These returns reflect the extent to which these institutions are resilient to the economic crisis.

This paper try to study the factors of the stability of Tunisian banks from a sample made up of 7 Tunisian banks listed during the period 2005-2014. The important determinants used to explain the stability of the banks are: the z-score and the capitalization ratio. The results revealed, firstly, that the profitability variables such as: return on assets (ROA) has a positive and significant impact on the stability of banks and return on equity (ROE) has a negative and significant effect. Besides, bank-specific variables such as: the net interest margin (NIM), the non-interest income (NII), the age and the size of the bank affect positively and not significantly the banking stability. But the debt ratio (END) has a negative and significant impact on banking stability. Finally, gross domestic product (GDP) affects positively and not significantly on banking stability. This paper investigates the connection between earnings management and corporate social.

This study investigates the impact of corporate governance characteristics and political connections of directors on the profitability of banks in Pakistan. The study uses the data of 26 domestic banks over the latest and large period of 2007–2016. Our findings firstly affirm that bank profitability is negatively affected by the presence of politically connected directors on the board, reporting significantly lower return on assets, return on equity, net interest margin, and profit margin. Secondly, our findings also affirm the negative political influence on the sustainability of the banking industry, reporting significantly lower return on assets, return on equity, net interest margin, and profit margin during the government transition of banks having politically connected directors sitting on their board. Our findings further report an inverted U-shaped relationship between board size and bank profitability, suggesting that a board size beyond 8–9 members decreases the profitability. The study further finds a positive impact of board composition, board independence, and director compensation on bank profitability, while also finding a negative impact of frequent board meetings, presence of foreign directors, and audit committee independence.

O objetivo deste estudo é analisar os fatores determinantes da rentabilidade do setor bancário brasileiro, medido por três indicadores: Rentabilidade dos Ativos (return on assets - ROA), Rentabilidade do Capital Próprio (return on equity - ROE) e Margem Líquida dos Juros (net interest margin - NIM). A metodologia explicativa das variáveis selecionadas consiste em um modelo econométrico que combina as caraterísticas específicas dos bancos, elementos setoriais e variáveis macroeconômicas, obtendo-se estimativas com recurso aos mínimos quadrados ordinários PLS (panel least squares-painel) com efeitos fixos. A amostra é constituída por dados semestrais de um painel dos dez maiores bancos do Brasil em ativos totais, no período compreendido entre 2007 a 2017. Os resultados indicam que a rentabilidade das instituições bancárias brasileiras depende da evolução das suas variáveis específicas, sendo entretanto grandemente influenciado pelos determinantes macroeconômicos, cuja significância estatística é recorrente. Contudo, a preponderância dos fatores explicativos para as proxies da rentabilidade (ROA, ROE e NIM) não foram uniforme. Os fatores que melhor explicam o indicador ROA são a qualidade dos ativos e a variável exógena do crescimento do produto interno bruto - PIB, enquanto que para o indicador ROE acrescem duas variáveis internas: alavancagem financeira e eficiência. Quando a medida da rentabilidade utilizada é o indicador NIM, as regressões evidenciam um nível explicativo global superior com as seguintes variáveis específicas: alavancagem financeira, qualidade do ativo, liquidez, custo do financiamento e estrutura do ativo, influênciando significativamente na rentabilidade. Destaca-se também a importância da concentração bancária, do crescimento do PIB e em menor grau da taxa de juro e inflação, como determinantes do NIM.

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;">This article’s main goal is to analyze the impact of political connections on the financial performance of Canadian financial institutions. Data on Canadian financial institutions from the S&amp;P/TSX Composite Index over a five-year period was analyzed, and the results demonstrate that contrary to previous studies on companies in other industries, political connections had a negative influence on solvency, return on assets and return on equity for these Canadian financial institutions. Only the market-to-book ratio was positively and significantly influenced by political connections.</p>
