Este trabajo busca analizar los efectos de la disposición de tasas activas máximas y tasas pasivas mínimas por parte del Banco Central de la República Argentina sobre el spread entre el cociente de ingresos financieros sobre los préstamos y el cociente de los egresos sobre los depósitos de los bancos privados que operaron en Argentina en el periodo 20122015. Luego de enumerar algunos modelos teóricos post-keynesianos para explicar cómo definen las diferentes tasas nominales los bancos comerciales, se analiza desde los estados financieros, como se comporto efectivamente el spread bajo las distintas regulaciones de la autoridad monetaria central. Los resultados demuestran que mas allá de las tasas máximas y mínimas, el spread efectivo no disminuyó, sino todo lo contrario. ABSTRACT: This paper aims to analyze the effects that maximum lending rates and minimum time deposit rates provided by the Central Bank of Argentina had on the spread between the ratio of financial income on loans, and the ratio of financial expenditures on the private banks deposits, operating in Argentina between 2012 and 2015. After reviewing some post-keynesians theories to explain how the commercial banks define the different nominal rates, this article analyzes, based on the financial statements, the actual spread behavior under the regulations of the central monetary authority. The results show that beyond the maximum and minimum rates, the effective spread does not decrease, but quite the opposite.

PurposeThis study analyzed the moderating effect of bank size on the relationship between financial soundness and financial performance of commercial banks in Kenya.Design/methodology/approachThe study employed data from 39 commercial banks for ten years from 2009 to 2018. Panel data regression model was used to analyze data.FindingsThe study results established a negative moderating effect of bank size on the relationship between commercial banks' financial soundness and net interest margin (NIM) and return on assets (ROA) with the results indicating a correlation coefficient of −0.1699 and −0.218, respectively. However, an absence of moderating effect was established when return on equity (ROE) was used as a measure of financial performance.Practical implicationsThe paper finding recommends that banks' management and other policy makers should consider the effect of bank size while devising financial soundness policies to ensure optimal level of banks' financial soundness aimed at improving banks' financial performance. In addition, bankers associations should come up with policies to standardize asset quality management practices to ensure continuous positive performance of the banking sector.Originality/valueThe study shows the contribution and applicability of the theory of production in the banking sector.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to ascertain the relationship between options derivatives and financial performance of selected listed commercial banks in Kenya. Methodology: Descriptive research design was used when collecting data using closed ended questionnaires from the selected 11 listed commercial banks in Kenya. The target population included 156 respondents who were 25 risk managers, 53 operations managers, 33 credit managers and 45 marketing managers to participate in the study. The study selected all of the 156 respondents through census sampling technique. Pre-test questionnaires was sent to six respondents who were junior officers in risk, credit, operations and marketing departments of non-listed commercial banks in Meru Kenya. The collected data was then coded and analyzed quantitatively using the descriptive statistics such as mean, percentage and standard deviation while inferential statisticsperson correlation analysis were used. Linear regression models were also used. Further on, the tables, graphs were used when indicating the analysis results. Results: Options had a statistically significant relationship with financial performance. Most respondents agreed that there were clear procedures used to solve options price discrepancies. It had a mean of 4.79 and standard deviation of 0.62. However, most respondents disagreed that options derivatives market activities were improving in the banks. It had a mean of 3.85 and standard deviation of 1.05. The results further indicated that options had an R value of .793a and Durbin Watson value of 1.292 showing there was a strong correlation between the two variables, while the R-square was 0.629. This implied that options as a paradigm predicted 62.9% of financial performance variable in this study.Options also had a significant p-value of 0.018. Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: The results indicated that commercial banks were really incurring more costs as compared to profits generated due to errors made by the employees when engaging in various options derivatives markets. In addition, when financial derivatives owners were given the rights and not forced to purchase or vend an underlying asset at a strike price or exercise price, at or earlier than the expiry date of the options, there was an above average purchase. The study recommends that the bank staff should explain full information on the options derivatives so that when a client is making the purchase, they are well knowledgeable. This knowledge should begin from the procedures followed when making a purchase, sale or transfer of option derivatives in the securities exchange market. In addition, any costs associated with the options derivatives should be fully communicated to clients priorly to avoid premature termination of options derivatives contracts. Further on, there should be more training on banks staffs by the bank management so that they are equipped with knowledge on the specifics of options derivatives trading. By doing so, the chances of errors would be minimized.

The Relationship

Previous studies on the relationship between bank restructuring and financial performance reveal conflicting results with few studies establishing the effect of financial services. Few studies have investigated the causality between bank restructuring and financial performance as intervened by deposits and customer loans. The positivism research philosophy and descriptive and inferential causal research design were used in this study. The hypothetical view of the study was that the relationship between bank restructuring and financial performance of commercial banks in Kenya is not intervened by deposits and customer loans. The 39 commercial banks that were consistently in business for the period 2002 to 2014 were included in the study. Bank restructuring was disaggregated into financial restructuring, capital restructuring, operational restructuring and asset restructuring. The empirical findings were as follows: There was a significant direct association between bank restructuring and financial performance which was intervened by deposits and customer loans as proxies for financial services. Deposits were found to be significant in intervening the relationship between bank restructuring and financial performance. Customer loans on the other had was not found to significantly intervene the relationship between bank restructuring and financial performance. A composite variable of financial services denoting the aggregate of the intervention of deposits and customer loans showed a significant intervening effect on the relationship between bank restructuring and financial performance. The study outcome therefore reveals that the hypothesis that the relationship between bank restructuring and financial performance is not intervened by financial services is rejected. The conclusion is that banks should focus more on deposits to caution against a decrease in financial performance. Additionally customer loans should not be ignored since the intervention though insignificant tends to negatively influence financial performance. The implication is that when banks focus more on the provision of financial services they are likely to compromise financial finance possibly because of the increased costs associated with providing financial services. Regulatory institutions such as the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) and the Kenya Institute of Bankers can use the study results to enhance policy and prudential guidelines to increase profitability of the banks. The study recommends that there is need to increase financial services offered by banks to increase outreach other than improving profitability of banks.
