Technical efficiency in Saudi banks

Technical efficiency in Saudi banks

This study analyses the technical efficiency of Saudi banks using a two-stage DEA-data envelopment analysis approach. In the first stage, we use a bootstrapped DEA–VRS model to identify the efficiency scores, and in the second stage, we use a bootstrapped truncated regression model to identify the covariates that explain technical efficiency. Policy implications are derived. 2010 Elsevier Ltd. ...

Measuring Technical and Scale Efficiency of Banks in India Using DEA

This study uses CRR model and BCC model to estimate the technical and scale efficiency of commercial banks in India during the periods 2006-2010. The results indicate that deregulation of banking sector has led to an increase in the efficiency of commercial banks in India. This increase in efficiency of banks in India is not only because of increase in pure technical efficiency but also due to ...

Technical Efficiency of Public Sector Banks in India Using Data Envelopment Analysis

Measuring and categorizing technical efficiency and productivity change of commercial banks in Taiwan

The banking industry plays a key role in the process of Taiwan’s economic development, and the structure of the financial system in Taiwan has turned from a controlled system into a liberalized one. In this paper, we employ the Malmquist productivity index approach, which is calculated from efficiency scores based on DEA linear programming technique, to measure the technical efficiency and prod...

Evaluating the technical efficiency of Turkish commercial banks: An Application of DEA and Tobit Analysis

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the performance of Turkish (TR) commercial banking sector. We evaluate the technical efficiency of individual TR banks using the nonparametric frontier methodology, the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). To investigate the determinants of efficiency, we use the Tobit model. This analysis aims to explain the variation in calculated efficiencies to a set ...
