The Impact

Purpose Motivated by the agency theory, this study aims to empirically examine the nexus between board attributes and a firm’s financing decisions of non-financial listed firms in Palestine and how the previous relationship is moderated and shaped by the level of gender diversity. Design/methodology/approach Multiple regression analysis on a panel data was used. Further, we applied three different approaches of static panel data “pooled OLS, fixed effect and random effect.” Fixed-effects estimator was selected as the optimal and most appropriate model. In addition, to control for the potential endogeneity problem and to profoundly analyze the study data, the authors perform the one-step system generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator. Dynamic panel GMM specification was superior in generating robust findings. Findings The findings clearly unveil that all explanatory variables in the study model have a significant influence on the firm’s financing decisions. Moreover, the results report that the impact of board size and board independence are more positive under conditions of a high level of gender diversity, whereas the influence of CEO duality on the firm’s leverage level turned from negative to positive. In a nutshell, gender diversity moderates the effect of board structure on a firm’s financing decisions. Research limitations/implications This study was restricted to one institutional context (Palestine); therefore, the results reflect the attributes of the Palestinian business environment. In this vein, it is possible to generate different findings in other countries, particularly in developed markets. Practical implications The findings of this study can draw responsible parties and policymakers’ attention in developing countries to introduce and contextualize new mechanisms that can lead to better monitoring process and help firms in attracting better resources and establishing an optimal capital structure. For instance, entities should mandate a minimum quota for the proportion of women incorporation in boardrooms. Originality/value This study provides empirical evidence on the moderating role of gender diversity on the effect of board structure on firm’s financing decisions, something that was predominantly neglected by the earlier studies and has not yet examined by ancestors. Thereby, to protrude nuanced understanding of this novel and unprecedented idea, this study thoroughly bridges this research gap and contributes practically and theoretically to the existing corporate governance–capital structure literature.

The Relationship

<p>The underlying objective of this study is to empirically investigate the relationship between the degree of compliance with the rules of the code of Corporate Governance (CG) that became effective in 2009 and profitability of Palestine Exchange Listed firms. Compliance with CG rules is measured based on a criteria of ten corporate governance indicators identified in the study of Abdelkarim and Ijbarah (2010), while profitability is measured by the percentage of change in ROI reported in year 2008 and its average over the period 2009-2015. The Use of ROI as a dependent variable in this study is based on the theoretical assumption that CG should have positive impact on efficiency in terms of cost management and increase in sales due to increase in market share. Prior research in developed economies reported a significant impact of corporate governance on firm performance particularly if measured as a change in market value. However, in Palestine there was only one study that investigated the relationship between corporate governance measured as the level of ownership concentration and firm’s performance measured using Tobin’s Q (Abdelkarim and Alawneh, 2005).</p><p>Using regression analysis, this study provides empirical evidence that there is no statistically significant relationship between the degree of compliance with the rules in the code of corporate governance and profitability of sample firms. Explanations for this key finding are provided in this study.</p><p> </p>

<p>We investigate the impact of R&amp;D narrative disclosure on the market value of equity for a sample of French companies during the period 2000–2004. Using 3SLS estimation on a panel data of 98 French firms, we find, ceteris paribus, positive (but insignificant) association between R&amp;D voluntary disclosure and the market value of equity. Both R&amp;D intensity and R&amp;D capitalization lead French firms to disclose more R&amp;D narrative information. However, they impact differently the relationship between R&amp;D-related disclosure and market value. Indeed, a positive and significant association is found when we control for R&amp;D capitalization. In contrast, when controlling for R&amp;D intensity, we find a negative association. We also find that equity-based compensation and audit committee independence are the most important drivers for R&amp;D narrative disclosure. </p>

The Impact

The aftermath of 1997/1998 Asian-financial meltdown, witnessed a significant restructuring of banking sector, resulting in fewer but bigger conglomeration of banks in Malaysia. Banks are now challenged to raise profit to another level in order to be more resilient against any future financial onslaught. The need to learn from some of the world best banks should be explored. This empirical study therefore attempts to benchmark the determinants of banks’ bottom line in Malaysia vis-à-vis attributes affecting viability of the same industry in Hong Kong. The domain of the study involves gauging the impact of firm’s size, capital structure, liquidity, managerial efficiency, loans’ size on bottom line enjoyed by banking sector in Malaysia and Hong Kong. The panel data are extracted from the 11 major banks, operating from each country in Malaysia and Hong Kong for period 2002 to 2011. The fixed effect panel found that, bank size, capital structure and loans to customers have strong impact on bank bottom line in Malaysia. In contrast, managerial efficiency improves profit margin in Hong Kong banking sector.Keywords: Banking Sector; Benchmarking; Bottom Line Determinants.

Legal Costs

Over the past decade, the banking industry has incurred over $300 billion in litigation and related legal costs. We analyzed the litigation expense data and corporate governance data of seven US and six European banking institutions. The 13 banking intuitions incurred nearly $200 billion in litigation expenses, roughly two-thirds of the total litigation expense incurred by the entire banking industry. We compared corporate governance metrics to the litigation expenses for the same 13 banking institutions. There are four main findings: First, litigation expenses of large banks have been on the decline since 2015; second, although the US banks incurred much greater litigation expenses during the 2010–2014 period, their litigation expenses have declined much more quickly than those of the European banks during the 2015–2017 period; third, litigation expenses incurred by European banks have been much higher than those of US banks when compared with bank total revenues and total capital; fourth, for US banks there is a strong correlation between improved corporate governance and lower litigation costs. However, for European banks it appears that the comply-or-explain approach to corporate governance muddies the link between good corporate governance and lower litigation costs.

The Impact

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to empirically examine the effect of investments in organisational resources and corporate governance features on market-based performance of Islamic banks (IBs). Design/methodology/approach The required data to calculate different constituents of banks’ investment strategies and governance mechanism were hand collected from 268 annual reports. Different regression models were used to determine the impact of investment in human and structural capital and corporate governance features on market performance of IBs. Findings The paper finds that investments in knowledge resources (human capital, in particular) have a significantly positive impact on the market value of IBs. The results further reveal that IBs’ strategy to rely on long-term human capital accumulation can be seen as idiosyncratic problem-solving knowledge capital. Based on market measure, the paper finds role duality to have a significant positive impact and the size of the advisory board to have the opposite effect on market value. Research limitations/implications This study includes IBs only and ignores other Islamic financial services providers such as Takaful (insurance) companies. The study leaves this chasm to be filled by future researchers. Practical implications The findings may serve as a useful input for both Islamic bankers and regulators to apply knowledge management in their institutions. Furthermore, the dominant role of human capital also provides insight to managers with respect to business performance levers. Originality/value The main contribution of this paper is to provide insight into the Islamic banking business model using a unique hand-collected data set, to identify the effect of investments in organisational resources and bank governance on market value in before, during and after financial crisis.

The Impact

This study aims to examine the effect of the implementation of corporate governance, capital structure, and firm size on the financial performance of banking companies. The implementation of good corporate governance is an obligation that must be carried out by companies which already have guidelines from the Financial Services Authority and other institutions. In fact, not all companies have applied good governance even though it can improve the performance of the company so it becomes interesting to study the impact of good governance implementation in Indonesia. This study uses panel data regression analysis with research samples from banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2017 to 2019. The results of the study as overall show that corporate governance, capital structure and firm size have a positive effect on the company's financial performance. Managerial ownership as corporate governance proxy has a significant positive impact on financial performance partially. Keywords: bank, capital structure, corporate governance, company size

The aim of the paper is to investigate the effects of agricultural subsidies on income variability of Lithuanian dairy farms. In addition, the observed heterogeneity in income risks across farms and time is explained in terms of farm characteristics. It was employed balanced farm-level panel data of the Lithuanian farm accountancy network (FADN) was used to construct coefficients of variation of five-year gross farm revenues over the period 2010 to 2014. Various econometric models are applied to measure the effect of off-farm income, total subsidies, farm size, and financial immobility on the variability of gross farm incomes. Estimations suggest that agricultural subsidies, liquidity have positive impact on income risk. The age of farmers negatively influences the income risk. There is non-linear relationship between farm size and income risk.
