“…These findings seem to suggest that the more efficient banks use less leverage (more equity) compared to their peers. This result is aligned with the findings of Isik and Hassan, 2003;Staikouras and Wood, 2003;and Sufian and Habibullah, 2009. Result analysis either demonstrates a positive relationship between performance and bank size in conventional and Islamic banks which is similar to the results of researches in banking sector conducted by Berger, Hunter and Timme (1993), Miller and Noulas (1996), Girardone, Molyneux and Gardener (2004) …”

This paper mainly has two objectives: the first one is to identify the similarity of capital structure between Islamic and Conventional banks; Second objective is to detect the relationship between capital structure variables and performance of Islamic and Conventional Banks in Gulf Countries (GC). This investigation has been performed on a sample of 16 GC Banks (8 Islamic Banks and 8 Conventional Banks) for the period 2005-2014. ROE (return on equity) and ROA (return of asset) have been used as performance measures. Total debt to total assets, Equity to total assets, Debt to equity ratios have been used as capital structure measures. Size of the bank has been considered as dependent variable to identify its relationship with bank performance. Data collected were analyzed by using SPSS software. The results of the research indicate a similarity of capital structure of Islamic banks and Conventional banks in Gulf Countries. ROA as performance measurement has a significant negative relationship with financial leverage and a positive relationship with equity to assets ratio. This relationship is identified at Islamic banks, Conventional banks and all the banks of the sample. Bank size has a positive relationship with ROA and ROE as performance measures in Islamic and Conventional banks.

“…This study found a significant relationship between capital structure and profitability and this correspond and consistent with the findings reported by Bourke (1989), Molyneux and Thornton (1992), Stienherr and Huveneers (1994), Isik and Hassan (2003), Staikouras and Wood (2003), Goddard et al (2004) Pasiouras & Kosmidou (2007 and Kosmidou (2008).The study also found that capital to assets ratio is significant and directly associated to bank profitability in Ghana, at 1 percent level of significance in both RE and pooled OLS estimations. This implies that well capitalized banks are likely to make higher profits, reinvest (if the profits are not paid out as dividends) and enjoy higher profits through the multiplier effect.…”

The purpose of this research is to examine the influence of both internal and external factors that determine the profitability of Ghanaian banks. The period under consideration extends from 1997-2014. To determine factors that determine the commercial bank profitability in Ghana, the research employed random effects and pooled ordinary least square models. Internal variables, both financial and non-financial were obtained from the database of Ghana Association of Bankers over the period 1997-2014. The macroeconomic variables were retrieved from Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) and Bank of Ghana (BOG) databases. The results of our study reveal that internal and external variables significantly influence bank profitability, non-interest income is not the sole determinant of profitability as other internal variables, such as capital to assets, GDP growth are statistically significant. However, determinants such as liquidity, deposit ratio, overhead, non-performing loans, number of employees, inflation and real interest rate do not impact significantly on banks' profitability in Ghana. The research could not include more qualitative factors. Future research could include more qualitative factors, for example, management leadership style with the quantitative factors and test the long run effects using a cointegration approach. The main value of this paper is the analysis of new empirical evidence using a current data.

“…Large banks are usually considered to have more professional management and to be more cost conscious (Isik & Hassan, 2003). Their size allows them to exploit economies of scale and have easier access to international financial markets (Brissimis, Delis, & Papanikolaou, 2008).…”

We investigate the impact of board and ownership structure on profitability of 74 commercial banks from four transition economies of South East Europe over the 2005-2010 period. We analyse this relation using Ordinary Least Squares regression analysis on an unbalanced panel data-set of 377 observations. We find negative and significant relationship between board size and bank profitability, while the proportion of independent directors on the board is negatively, but insignificantly related to bank profitability. Impact of ownership concentration on bank profitability is negative, but weak. We also find that privately held domestic banks outperform state-owned and foreign banks. Important factors influencing bank profitability in South East Europe are also bank size and bank capitalisation.
