This study aims to determine the bank interest margin and non-interest income in 25 countries in ASIA in the study period 1993 and 2020. This study uses the quantitative method Generalized Method of Moments (GMM). Prudence in developing the banking business by banking business actors is essential in preventing a systemic financial crisis in the future, such as the experience of the Asian financial crisis in 1997 and the subprime mortgage crisis in 2008. Bank interest margins and non-interest income are both required in maintaining bank cash inflow.

The purpose of this paper is to identify the determinants of bank profitability in 13 post-Soviet countries. Within this scope, annual data between 1996 and 2016 is analyzed by using fixed effects panel regression and the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM). It is concluded that loan amount, non-interest income and economic growth are significant indicators of profitability. Moreover, the 2008 global mortgage crisis has a negative influence on bank profitability in post-Soviet countries. According to the estimation results, there is a positive relationship between non-interest income and economic growth with profitability. This result shows that when non-interest income of the banks increases, such as credit card fees and commission, it affects the financial performance of the banks, positively, and contributes to bank profitability. Another result of this study is that economic growth positively influences bank profitability. This result allows us to conclude that higher GDP comes with higher bank profitability for post-Soviet countries. Lastly, there is a negative relationship between loan-to-GDP ratio and profitability of the banks in post-Soviet countries. This means that when the ratio of total loans to GDP increases, it affects financial performance of the banks in a negative way. While considering this result, it is recommended that banks in post-Soviet countries should focus on ways to increase their non-interest income. Additionally, it is also significant for these banks to be careful and risk averse when lending to their customers.

Subprime Mortgage Crisis

We study the investment of organized crime in the legal economy. By using the shock induced on the Italian credit market by the 2007 subprime mortgage crisis, we document how provinces with a high organized crime presence have been impacted less by the crisis in terms of the establishment of new enterprises than provinces with a lower criminal infiltration. We provide evidence that the lower impact of the crisis is consistent with the presence of investments by organized crime in the legal economy. We corroborate this interpretation by comparing our results with the characterization made by the judicial authority of such investments.

AbstractIn the aftermath of the 2007-2008 financial crisis, there has been criticism of mathematics and the mathematical models used by the finance industry. We answer these criticisms through a discussion of some of the actuarial models used in the pricing of credit derivatives. As an example, we focus in particular on the Gaussian copula model and its drawbacks. To put this discussion into its proper context, we give a synopsis of the financial crisis and a brief introduction to some of the common credit derivatives and highlight the difficulties in valuing some of them.We also take a closer look at the risk management issues in part of the insurance industry that came to light during the financial crisis. As a backdrop to this, we recount the events that took place at American International Group during the financial crisis. Finally, through our paper we hope to bring to the attention of a broad actuarial readership some “lessons (to be) learned” or “events not to be forgotten”.

Abstract In this paper, we use a fully anonymized dataset provided by the German Savings Banks Association (DSGV) to analyse which savings banks have expanded into fee-producing activities more quickly. In addition, we investigate whether their profitability and stability is correlated with the share of their fee and commission income. Notably, we examine whether the effect on bank profitability differs depending on the type of fee and commission income. Our results support the view that savings banks with low net interest margins are under greater pressure to expand into fee-producing activities. They further suggest that savings banks with a higher share of fee and commission income, in particular from payment services and securities business, also have a higher profitability. The Z-score also correlates positively with the share of securities business income, possibly because it responds to different shocks than net interest income and, therefore, offers a large diversification potential. Zusammenfassung In diesem Paper verwenden wir einen vollständig anonymisierten Datensatz des Deutschen Sparkassen- und Giroverbands (DSGV), um zu untersuchen, welche Sparkassen ihr Provisionsgeschäft schneller ausgebaut haben. Außerdem analysieren wir, wie stark die Profitabilität und Stabilität dieser Banken mit dem Anteil des Provisionseinkommens am gesamten operativen Einkommen korreliert sind. Zu beachten ist, dass wir dabei nach der Art des Provisionseinkommens unterscheiden. Unsere Ergebnisse stützen die Hypothese, dass Sparkassen mit einer hohen Zinsmarge unter geringerem Druck stehen, ihr Provisionsgeschäft auszubauen. Sie lassen ferner darauf schließen, dass Sparkassen mit einem Anteil an Provisionseinkommen aus dem Zahlungsverkehr und dem Wertpapiergeschäft eine höhere Profitabilität haben. Der Z-Score korreliert ebenfalls positiv mit dem Anteil an Provisionseinkommen aus dem Wertpapiergeschäft, möglicherweise weil es anderen Schocks ausgesetzt ist als das Zinseinkommen und deshalb ein großes Diversifikationspotential birgt.

Price Discovery Process

We study the price discovery process and common factor weights of SS50 (the FTSE China A50 Index traded in Mainland China) and A50 (the iShares FTSE A50 China Tracker traded in Hong Kong) using daily open-to-open price pairs and close-to-close price pairs. Due to Qualified Domestic Institutional Investor (QDII) scheme (13 April 2006) and US subprime mortgage crisis (middle 2007), our sample, which covers from November 18, 2004 to October 31, 2008, is divided into three periods. We find A50 has a much larger common factor weight than SS50, and A50 dominants for both open and close prices during all periods. The QDII enlarges the contribution of SS50, but financial crisis reduces it.

PurposeThis paper investigates the effect of financial development on bank profitability. The authors examine whether financial development is an important determinant of bank profitability.Design/methodology/approachThe ordinary least square and the generalized method of moments regression methods were used to analyze the impact of financial development on the profitability of the Nigerian banking sector.FindingsThe authors find a significant negative relationship between the financial system deposits to GDP ratio and the non-interest income of Nigerian banks. This indicates that higher financial system deposits to GDP depresses the non-interest income of Nigerian banks. The result implies that the larger the size of the Nigerian financial system, the lower the profitability of banks in Nigeria. Also, the authors observe that bank concentration, nonperforming loans, cost efficiency and the level of inflation are significant determinants of the profitability of Nigerian banks.Practical implicationsIt is recommended that regulators should establish market-enabling policies that encourage new banks to emerge in the banking industry. The entry of new banks can lead to increase in financial system deposits and credit supply for economic growth. Regulators also need to understand the role of Nigerian banks in promoting financial development and find ways to collaborate with banks towards financial sector development. Another implication of the findings for asset managers is that asset managers will need to take into account the prevailing level of financial development, particularly the size of the financial system, in their asset pricing and investment decisions. This will ensure that investors get value for their investments in Nigeria. The financial implication of the study is that the level of financial development in Nigeria can improve the finance-growth linkages in Nigeria through the efficient allocation of credit and capital to crucial sectors of the Nigerian economy to spur growth in those sectors.Originality/valueEvidence dealing with how financial development affects the profitability of the banking sector in African countries is scarce in the literature, and is completely absent for Nigeria. This paper addresses this research gap.
