In this study, the researcher examined the financial variables influencing the share price of listed deposit money banks in Nigeria. An ex-post facto research design was employed with the population consisting of all fifteen (15) listed deposit money banks on the Nigeria Stock Exchange (NSE), and a sample of twelve (12) listed deposit money banks on NSE was taken using filter criteria and judgemental sampling techniques. Secondary data used were sourced from the annual reports of the sampled banks and GTI Securities Ltd. for five years period from 2013-2017. Ordinary Least Square (OLS) was used to analyze the data. The results of the multiple regression revealed that the dividend payout ratio and price-earnings ratio have a significant positive relationship with the share price. The results also showed that dividend yield has a significant negative association with share price; the book value per share has no meaningful relationship with the share price. This study recommends that the shareholders in the deposit money banks should be guided by industry financial ratios, especially the profitability measures of price-earnings ratio and dividend payout ratio, as they are critical factors in predicting share price behavior.

This study attempted to explore the connection between credit risk management and the profitability of the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) listed commercial banks. The study specifically sought to examine the relationship between credit risk and the profitability of the firms as measured by ROA. The study adopted these variables to measure credit risk (non-performing loan ratio, cost per loan asset, capital reserved 0.1ratio and asset growth ratio) and return on asset (ROA) as a profitability estimator. Following some diagnostic and specification studies to address the fundamental assumptions of the Classical Linear Regression Model (CLRM). The study uncovered that NPLR had a significantly negative effect on the firms’ profitability as measured by ROA [β=-0.1671, (p=0.1360)>0.05]. Also, the cost per loan asset (CPLA) had a positive influence on the firms’ profitability as measured by ROA [β= 0.0249, (p=0.8252)>0.05]. For the other variables of credit risk measurements, capital reserved ratio, and assets growth ratio. The capital reserve ratio had a significant positive association with ROA [β=0.2867, (p=0.0095) <0.05. Similarly, asset growth ratio had a statistically significant negative connection with firm’s profitability measured by ROA [β=-0.3835, (p=0.0004) <0.05. Based on the results, the study suggested that since credit risk had a negative association with the firm’s profitability, the companies should adopt efficient credit risk management methods to assist guide their profitability. This point is raised because, as demonstrated by the results of the study, an increase in credit risk led to a decrease in the profitability of the companies.

Corporate voluntary disclosure becomes a burning issue in the literature of accounting throughout the last two decades. The study aims to explore the most crucial determinants that influence corporate voluntary disclosure in a transition economy. A cross-sectional study based on the pharmaceutical and chemical companies listed in the Dhaka Stock Exchange is conducted to reconnoiter the crucial determinants affecting the voluntary disclosure. Based on the agency theory, stakeholder theory, and previous literature, the determinants are selected. An unweighted disclosure index is used to measure the extent of voluntary disclosure; after that, a multivariate analysis is steered to reconnoiter the key determinants of voluntary disclosure. It is found that firm leverage and firm liquidity are the key determinants that significantly influence the corporate voluntary disclosure in a transition economy. In contrast, no significant positive association is found between voluntary disclosure and board size. In additon, it is also found that market category significantly influences voluntary disclosure with an inverse direction. This study has important implications for both the corporate people and the regulatory bodies of the transition economy. The study also helps various stakeholders of the transition economy – Bangladesh, in designing their strategies regarding the most significant determinants of voluntary disclosure. Acknowledgment We are very thankful to the Institute of Advanced Research (IAR), United International University, Bangladesh, to grant us the fund by mobilizing which we generate our required data for the study and complete this empirical study.

Qualitative Characteristics

Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of financial reporting quality (FRQ) on share price movement (SPM) of listed companies in an emerging and developing economy – Bangladesh. Design/methodology/approach The study analyzed 296 annual reports for the year 2015 and 2016 in examining the effect of FRQ on SPM. Ordinary least squares (OLS) regression model is used to examine the hypothesized relationship among the variables. A modified version of Lang et al. (2003) has been adopted in measuring the SPM. FRQ is measured using the qualitative characteristics approach as defined by the International Financial Reporting Standard Framework and used by Beest et al. (2009) and Braam and Beest (2013). Findings The study finds a positive association (though not significant statistically) between the FRQ and SPM in the country’s leading stock exchange (Dhaka stock exchange). Furthermore, the effect of enhancing quality on SPM is found to be stronger as compared to fundamental quality. Majority of the FRQ constructs demonstrate an improvement in the quality score in the year 2016 as compared to 2015 except for relevance. Research limitations/implications The key limitation of the study is that it focuses only on two years (2015 and 2016) annual reports data in measuring FRQ and its effect on SPM. Originality/value The study uses qualitative characteristics approach in measuring the FRQ and to examine its effect on SPM using the context of an emerging and developing economy – the case of Bangladesh.

The Relationship

Purpose – This research aims to examine the relationship between dividend payment and earnings quality. Design/methodology/approach – The authors examine four dividend features: dividend-paying status, dividend size, dividend changes, and dividend persistence. The samples consist of 90 firms from the manufacturing industry in the years 2005-2009. Multiple regression is used for testing hypotheses. Findings – The results show that dividend-paying status, dividend increase, and persistence in dividend payment have significant positive association with earnings quality. However, the authors do not find evidence that larger dividend size is an indicator of higher earnings quality. Overall, the results show that dividend-paying status, increase in dividend size, and persistence in dividend payment are indicators or signals of higher earnings quality. Research limitations/implications – This study examines only the manufacturing firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Further study based on different industries and/or different emerging markets is needed before generalizing results. Originality/value – Few studies have examined dividend payment in emerging markets. This study fills the void.

Spurred by the need to evade possible parameter bias associated with earlier works, this study intended to address the subject of whether performance of commercial banking contributes to economic growth. With the aim of answering this question, the present review concentrates on analyzing the association between profitability, deposit and credit facilities as proxy for performance of commercial banks while gross domestic product proxies economic growth. The population of the study is characterized by the Jordanian banking industry; the study enclosed a period of six years from 2010 to 2015 constructed on the annual report of thirteen chosen banks. Using Ordinary Least Square, the regression outcomes found a significant positive association between measures of bank performance and economic growth. Findings demonstrate that measures of bank performance in particular profitability deposits credits have positive relationship with economic growth as measured by GDP. The empirical results suggest that the policy creators should make arrangements to augment and prompt the banking sector in Jordan on account of its key significance in making and advancing development of the economy. It additionally can be inferred that not only commercial banking performance but also other movables such as political stability and technology may assume essential part in the economic prosperity in Jordan.
