Purpose
This paper aims to assess the impact of credit risk on the market values of private banks during the corona pandemic.
Design/methodology/approach
This study is identifying critical issues of credit risk at six great private banks. A conceptual framework is designed based on the Tobin Q model for investigating study hypotheses. Quantitative financial analysis methods have been used for processing data, such as financial ratios, arithmetic mean and multiple linear regression.
Findings
The most important result of this study is the lack of influence of credit risk on the market value of selected banks. Because the dimensions of credit risk have critical importance in increasing or decreasing the market value, these banks must continue to adopt quantitative financial analysis to measure credit risks to avoid their risk.
Originality/value
This study elaborates the need for financial indicators to help assess the market value of banks during the economic crises caused by the closure of commercial institutions during the corona pandemic. There is continued increase in bank credit to support these institutions, borrowers and cash withdrawals, which may affect their market reputation.
The purpose of this study was to identify risks to patients as a result of sudden device failure during the delivery of medical treatment services. Which, can affect the reputation of hospitals following the exposure of patients' lives to various risks like death, injury, and misdiagnosis. Furthermore, a sudden failure will lead to increased economic losses as a result of increased maintenance costs. Of (20) medical devices, (6) high-risk devices were selected, such as a ventilator, diathermy, anesthesia, BiPAP, oxygen concentrator, and electrosurgical devices. A quantitative statistical analysis based on risk-based maintenance is used to evaluate the effectiveness of the reliability of the medical device and its risks to patient lives. The results show that the reliability of the chosen medical device has declined, with higher maintenance costs due to excessive maintenance or the type of maintenance policy used. Therefore, this study provides evidence that hospitals must adopt a risk-based maintenance approach to prevent sudden failure while in service. In addition, these medical devices have various complex parts that must adopt a combination of maintenance schedules. Based on Risk-Based Maintenance's experience in improving patient safety in public hospitals in the 20 most successful OECD countries.
