Efficiency performance of Malaysian Islamic banks

This study examines the efficiency performance of the full-fledged Islamic banks in Malaysia for the period of 2006 to 2011.The Malaysian Islamic banking industry has grown tremendously in terms of assets, deposits and total financing over the study period. Data Envelopment Analysis is employed in this study to measure the cost efficiency as well as the technical efficiency and its decompositions. The results show that, on average the main contributor of cost efficiency for Islamic domestic and foreign banks in Malaysia is allocative efficiency. In addition, the results find that Islamic foreign banks are more efficient than domestic banks with respect to pure technical efficiency and allocative efficiency

Indigenous Knowledge In Borneo: A Bibliometric Review

The paper is to presents a bibliometric review of the research publication output of indigenous knowledge in Borneo. This study adopted a bibliometric analysis based on the data obtained from the Scopus research database. The main keyword used is "Borneo", to highlight research relevant that reflected through its publications and their research productivity. This study attempts to focus analyses the results using standard bibliometric indicators such as publication year, document type, source type, source title, languages, subject area, keywords analysis, geographical distribution, authorship, active institutions, and citation analysis on the subject of "Borneo" throughout 5 years (2017-2021) impact study. From the major findings, Universiti Malaysia Sabah and Universiti Malaysia Sarawak from Malaysia are the institutions and country that produced the most publications output on this study. The study also shows the results on the most subjects are in agricultural and biological sciences, arts, and humanities, biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. Besides that, this study aims to facilitate the search for information, bibliography materials and knowledge topics, especially on Borneo

Performance Efficiencies of Domestic and Foreign Islamic Banks in Malaysia

This study examines the performance efficiencies of full-fledged Islamic banks in Malaysia for the period from 2006 to 2011. The Malaysian Islamic banking industry has grown tremendously in terms of assets, deposits and total financing over the study period. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is employed in this study to measure the cost efficiency as well as the technical efficiency and its decompositions. The results show that, on average the main contributor of cost efficiency for Islamic domestic and foreign banks in Malaysia is allocative efficiency. In addition, the results find that foreign Islamic banks are more efficient than domestic banks with respect to pure technical efficiency and allocative efficiency

Concentration, Competition, And Efficiency Of Malaysian Banks: Islamic Vs Conventional Banks

The presence study aims to examine the market concentration, competition and the efficiency performance of conventional and Islamic banks in Malaysian banking industry over the period of 2008 to 2014. This study employs concentration ratio and Herfindahl-Hirschman Index to measure the market concentration while H-statistics value computed by Panzar-Rosse method serves as the indicator of the market competition. Last but not least, the Data Envelopment Analysis is used to assess the efficiency performance of Malaysian banks. The results ofmarket concentration show conventional banks are more concentrated and the H-statistics results suggest Malaysian banks are operating under monopolistic competition. Interestingly, the efficiency results indicate the foreign banks are more efficient than its counterpart under conventional banking; vice versa, the domestic banks are more efficient in the Islamic banking system

The Efficiency Performance of Global Islamic Banks

This paper examines the efficiency performance of the Islamic banks that consist of 14 countries namely Bahrain, Bangladesh, Iran, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Malaysia, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi, Tunisia, Turkey, UAE, and Yemen during the period of 2004-2011 with 44 Islamic banks involved. The efficiency estimates of individual banks are evaluated using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) approach. The empirical findings suggest that during the period of study, pure technical efficiency outweighs scale efficiency in the global Islamic banking sector implying that the Islamic banks have been managerially efficient in exploiting their resources to the fullest extent. The empirical findings seem to suggest that the global Islamic banks have exhibited high pure technical efficiency. During the period of study it is found that pure technical efficiency has greater influence in determining the total technical inefficiency of the Global Islamic banking sectors

Stock Prices and Exchange Rates in Indonesia: Further Evidence

The paper examines the relationship between stock prices and exchange rates for the case of Indonesia. The study uses daily and weekly data for the period January 1998 to December 2007. We employed Toda and Yamamoto (1995) Granger non-causality test in both bivariate and multivariate setting to examine the relationship between stock prices and exchange rates. The results of this study suggest a strong evidence of bi-directional causality between these two financial variables. The results have implications for investors, practitioners and policy makers

CAMEL Analysis on performance of Asean Public Listed Banks

The study is conducted to measure the performance of public listed banks in five ASEAN countries. This study covers 63 public listed banks from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and the Philippines over the period of 1997 to 2011. The CAMEL analysis which is based on Capital Adequacy, Asset Quality, Management Efficiency, Earning Quality, and Liquidity is employed in this study. The objectives of the study are to measure the performance of public listed banks as well as to compare the performance across countries. The results of the CAMEL analysis show that Singaporean public listed banks are the top performer as compared to their counterparts. Next, the comprehensive results reveal that Public Bank in Malaysia, United Overseas Bank in Singapore, Bank ArthaGraha in Indonesia, Bank of Ayudhya in Thailand and Union Bank of the Philippines are the top performed banks
