Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the performance of selected private sector Banks in India. The aim is also to study the profitability performance of these selected banks. Approach/Methodology/Design: Eight private Banks were selected as a sample for the study. The statistical tools employed in the study include Minimum and Maximum Net Profit Ratio, Descriptive Statistics and One-Way ANOVA test for the evaluation of performance of Banks. The period for the study is from 2011-12 to 2018-19, and this study is totally based on secondary data. Findings: The results of the study reveal that there is a significant difference of Net Profit of the selected banks. The financial performance of HDFC Bank is continuously in a good condition due to the high profit earned and the proper management that is employed. The results indicate that Yes Bank is in a deteriorating financial position because of governance issues, false assurance to customers, non-serious investors, non market-led revival in sight, outflow of liquidity, and non-disclosure practices. Axis Bank and ICICI Bank are slowly declining within the market. Jammu and Kashmir Bank suffered losses in the year 2016-17 due to the tune of Rs 16,000 crores during the five months long unrest in the Kashmir valley. Practical Implications: In today’s scenario, most of the banks have more Non-Performing Assets. Due to this condition, many banks go to liquation and merger/acquisition. This paper attempts to examine the current conditions of selected private sector banks in India, assisting in presenting statistical analysis that will be of use to investors as well as management teams of the banks. Originality/value: Nowadays, Banking sector is one of the fastest growing sectors and huge funds are invested in banks. The banking system is becoming more complex and therefore there is a strong need to evaluate the performance of the banks. The originality in this study lies in the attempt to provide up-to-date assessment of eight top banks in India.

The term ‘merger’ signifies the joining of two or more business concerns into a single one mainly with the purpose of generating much more effective output. But, sometimes these tie up events are done to absorb the weak entity with intention to cover up these sick entity’s loopholes. Merger in banking sector is now a latest trend to take over weak banks and enhance its business capability with capturing a huge portion of competitive market. In simple terms, banks are unified to enjoy the synergy benefits of the merger. State Bank of India which is currently the most popular one public sector bank of India also witnessed such kind of consolidation events primarily with its subsidiaries banks. The almost latest tie up deal of SBI with its five subsidiaries banks & Bharatiya Mahila Bank occurred on 1st April 2017 is the center point of this study around which analysis is rotating with the intention to examine the impact of consolidation on this largest bank’s performance through the lens of CAMELS framework. This article is purely based on secondary data and all the required facts & figures are congregated from ‘CAPITALINE- 2000 Database’. Three years pre tie up phase (i.e., from 2014-15 to 2016-17) & three years post tie up phase (i.e., from 2017-18 to 2019-20) of State Bank India are explored in this study. The findings of the study confirms that State Bank of India has failed to enjoy the benefits of merger as it take over its own associate banks which are already have high non- performing assets. Ratios related to capital adequacy do not point any remarkable improvements in post-merger phase. Similarly, bank has failed to improve its assets quality. Except Business per Employee all the management efficiency ratios have not gained enough mileage. Overall earnings capacity and liquidity of the bank has also deteriorated after merger. As a whole it can be opined that merger has not made any significant difference in financial performance of SBI, at least in short run.

This paper aims at investigating whether fluctuations in the exchange rate affect the financial performance of Sudanese banks and detecting the direction of the causal relationship relation between exchange rate and banks’ performance. The study targets a total population of 37 working banks in Sudan and covers the period 2002-2017. The sample comprises of the total set of the population. The paper depends mainly on secondary data, which is collected from consolidated financial reports of commercial banks and other official publications and documents. To test the hypotheses and accuracy and validity of models and data, a set of methods of data analysis are employed, namely, Ordinary Least Squared (OLS), Generalized Least Squares (GLS), Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) and a number of Diagnostic Tests. The study documents that foreign exchange rate fluctuations, contrary to empirical research findings, have a weak negative effect on Sudanese banks’ financial performance. This may be attributed to the tight economic embargo against Sudan during the period of this study, which isolates the country from the international financial system and adversely affects its ability to engage in cross border activities. Consequently, the banking sector in Sudan is insulated from the effect of international currency movements and its exposure to currency risk that may create unpredictable profits and losses is minimal. In addition, the continuous deterioration of the Sudanese Pound and the limited FDI flows to the country render the investment environment uncompetitive and incapable of attracting foreign funds and the banking system of completely domestic nature.


Environmental issues such as global warming and subsequent climate changes have stimulated the need for environmental performance reporting by organizations. Extant literature highlights that adoption of environmental practices is expected to influence financial performance of organizations. Despite extensive literature available on relationship between environmental performance and financial performance, results still remain indecisive. This research attempts to investigate environmental performance reporting in the context of commercial banks operating in India and compare the relationship between environmental performance and financial performance on a sample of 21 public and 20 private sector banks for a period of five years (2013-14 to 2017-18) using content analysis and linear regression. Secondary data was collected from annual reports, corporate social responsibility reports, business responsibility reports and sustainability reports of respective banks. Results obtained evince no considerable association amid environmental performance and financial performance of public sector banks functioning in India. Correspondingly, no considerable association was found amid environmental performance and return on equity of private sector banks. Conversely, positive significant relationship was observed between environmental performance and return on assets of private sector banks. Research provides an insight to banking sector to incorporate environmental practices in core business operations to improve profitability.

Background: Our study aims to verify the impact of corporate governance index on financial performance, namely return on assets (ROA), general liquidity, capital adequacy and size of company expressed as total assets in the banking sector for both a developing and a developed country. In addition, we investigate the interactive effect of corporate governance on a homogenous and a heterogeneous banking system. These two banking systems were chosen in order to assess the impact of corporate governance on two distinct types of banking system: a homogenous one such as the Romanian one and a heterogeneous one such as the Italian one. The two systems are very distinct; the Romanian one is represented by only 34 banks, while the Italian one comprises more than 350 banks. Thus, our research question is how a modification in corporate governance legislation is influencing the two different banking systems. The research implication of our study is whether a modification in legislation, thus in the index of corporate governance, is feasible for two different banking sectors and what the best ways to increase the financial performance of banks are without compromising their resilience. Methods: Using survey data from the Italian and Romanian banking systems over the period 2007–2018, we find that the corporate governance has a significant, positive and long-lasting effect on profitability and capital adequacy in both countries. Results: Taking the size of the company into consideration, the impact of the Index of Corporate Governance (ICG) on a homogenous banking system is positive while the impact on a heterogeneous banking system is negative. Conclusions: Our study provides evidence of the impact of IGC on financial performance and sheds light on the importance of the size of the company. Therefore, one can state that the corporate governance principles applied do not encourage the growth of large banks in heterogeneous banking sectors, thereby suggesting new avenues of research associated with new perspectives.
