It is of greater importance to understand the factors influencing P/E ratio for the fund managers, decision makers, market analysts and individual investors. Variability in shares prices and investment opportunities in Pakistani listed banking firms motivate to examine the determinants of P/E ratio using time-series as well as panel data analysis for the period of 2007 to 2014. The findings of panel data indicate significant variation in P/E ratio due to MktRtrn, VMP and SIZE. DP ratio is found to be the most influential determinant of P/E ratio indicating the willingness of investors to invest more funds in those banking firms paying greater dividends. Empirical outcomes of time-series analysis for banking industry represent that DP ratio is the super most imperative determinant of P/E ratio. Findings also indicate that P/E ratio vary across years and influence the investor’s investment decision. The findings of the study facilitate the decision makers by investigating the most significant determinant of P/E ratio of banking firms in order to attract attention of investors and increase their confidence to choose these firms in their portfolios.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the banking industry’s efficiency using the case of Yemen. Design/methodology/approach – The paper utilises two-stage analysis to evaluate the efficiency adopting Data Envelopment Window Analysis (DEWA) in the first stage for the period 1996-2011. Furthermore, the paper addresses, in two-dimensional matrix, the stability and efficiency of the banking sector in order to assess their ability for survival. In the second stage, panel data analysis is applied to regress a set of bank-specific and macro-economic variables on the efficiency of the banking sector in Yemen in a comparative fashion between Islamic and conventional banks. Findings – The findings of the investigation indicate that the Yemeni banking industry in general was on a declining efficiency’s trend with increased instability during the later period of the investigation. In addition, the study shows that most conventional banks were relatively stable, though inefficient, while Islamic banks were more efficient over the time. The results of panel data regression further suggest that efficiency is related to a number of determinants. Loan/financing, and profitability are the common key determinants of efficiency for both Islamic and conventional banks. However, other determinants have impacted differently for Islamic and conventional banks, which could reflect the uniqueness of their operation and structure. Research limitations/implications – The present study provides a basis for the regulators and bankers to assess the viability of the banking sector and proposes policies to restructure the industry in order to enhance the performance of the whole industry. Originality/value – The paper presents new empirical findings on the efficiency of Islamic and conventional banks in Yemen.

With the implementation of free market economy in Turkey starting from 1980, restrictions on foreign capital flows began to be abolished. Within the scope of international expansion in financial aspects, steps for integration with global financial markets were taken, and regulations were made. Accordingly, the number of foreign banks in Turkish banking system have increased since 1980, and reached an important scale in the sector. The share of foreign deposit banks’ total assets in the entire banking sector is at 22,8% level as of 2019. In this study, panel data analysis was performed to identify the factors affecting the Turkish currency assets of foreign deposit banks. The 11-year data for the 2009-2019 period were utilized in the study. Turkish Currency Assets / Total Assets was determined as the dependent variable in the analysis. The factors affecting the Turkish currency assets of foreign deposit banks were identified as Turkish Currency Liability / Total Liability [TPYUK], Turkish Currency Deposits / Total Deposits [TPMEV], and Turkish Currency Loans / Total Loans [TPKREDI]. Based on the study results the model formed was significant, and the ratio of independent variables for explaining the dependent variable in the model was approximately 48%. The independent variables TPYUK and TPKREDI were revealed to have a statistically significant positive effect on the dependent variable at 5% significance level. A 1-unit raise in TPYUK increased the dependent variable by 0,436 unit, and a 1-unit raise in TPKREDI by 0,033 unit. No statistically significant effect of TPMEV as the other independent variable was identified on the dependent variable.

Dividend policy has been a puzzling question for many years. This study attempts to identify the key factors affecting it in the financial sector that have been neglected in the literature. Using panel data on 621 Group of Seven (G-7) banks and 68 Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) banks, five main factors namely, banks’ size, profitability, growth, leverage, and last year’s dividend were empirically tested regarding their impact on dividend payout ratios. In addition to comparing the two economies descriptively, the researchers employed panel data analysis using multiple regression with random effects. The findings revealed that the dividend payout ratio for the GCC countries is higher than G-7 countries in every year of the examined period (2010-2015). Furthermore, for both G-7 and GCC banks, profitability and last year dividend had a significant positive influence while banks’ leverage had a significant negative influence on the dividend payout. It was found also that banks’ size is an important dividend determinant in the G-7 countries only.

This study aims to analyze the factors that affect TPT exports to the five biggest export destination countries. The factors that affect TPT exports examined by using time series and panel data analysis. Using panel data analysis finds that GDP per capita of the destination country, the exchange rate of the Rupiah, the price of textiles in the destination country, and import tariffs stipulate in the destination country affect TPT exports. Then, using time series analysis finds that GDP per capita and import tariffs affected TPT export to the United States, China, and Turkey.
