This paper’s goal is twofold: it aims to assess the performance of 58 Iberian banks and explore relationship between such banks’ Intellectual Capital (IC) efficiency during a post-crisis period. As long as authors are aware, there gap in literature exploring global IC efficiency. First, Data Envelopment Analysis model was adopted measure rank them according their performance. were collected dig...

A stock exchange is an entity which provides ‘‘trading’’ facilities for stock brokers and traders to trade stocks and other securities. How to invest in stock exchange is one of the important issues in investment, and one of the factors that can help investors in the process of investment is the efficiency of the corporation under consideration. Data envelopment analysis is a mathematical method...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a non-parametric technique for evaluation of relative efficiency of decision making units described by multiple inputs and outputs. it is based on solving linear programming problems. since 1978 when basic dea model was introduced many its modifications were formulated. among them are two or multi-stage models with serial or parallel structure often called net...

We incorporate the concept of fairness in a conventional two-stage process to inquire how fairness may affect overall and individual stage efficiency. The relations among the non-cooperative, cooperative and standard DEA approaches are investigated when two sub-units are concerned about fairness. An empirical example is shown to verify the approach.

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a method for measuring the efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and outputs. The traditional DEA treats decision making units under evaluation as black boxes and calculates their efficiencies with first inputs and last outputs. This carries the notion of missing some intermediate measures in the process of changing the inputs to...

The two-stage Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is widely applied to assess the efficiency of commercial banks in recent years. Even though this approach well simulates sequence bank’s production process, independent operations within sub-stage are generally ignored, and cooperative or non-cooperative relations between sub-stages usually investigated separately. Commercial banking system, however...
